Is There Really A Secret??

 I was the only one who had some, Faith that is. I had no mother to get wisdom from, I had no friends to depend on never knew my father till I was thirty so I took my chances. Writing was hard, I had no writing degree what was I thinking? their must be thousands of talented writers waiting for the shot I  needed.
   I didn't come from a family of means, Quite the opposite. In my pain I found peace writing was my only escape. I started writing to live the life I couldn't. I was jealous of anyone who had family. Don't get me wrong I had my Grandma, but she was not my mother. There isn't a substitute. I was jealous of anyone who  lived  better than me. One day I picked up a pen I had an overwhelming urge that I could be a writer,
    We work hard at jobs we hate, We Gossip about people who have more, one year later where are you? still  complaining about the boss you hate. Still in that relationship that's going nowhere.
     This is just a few tips that I have learned along the way.. Like you I have read every self help book I could put my hands on. They all seem to say the same thing:
1. Get started
2. don't give up
3 make a plan
4.persistance

Ok so how many are rich from the SECRET? what is the Secret to massive wealth? I realized what these books had in common - PERSISTANCE. You have to fight for what you want. keep your dream in front daily but work hard at your current job. you must  shed some pounds. shed some weight, you heard right. Let go of anything and anybody who is not moving in your direction.
   I lost loved ones on this journey I lost friends who was secretly envious. I gained more than I lost, I began to do what the other 90% wasn't. I changed my thought and that's hard. Oh! you say its not, try going 14 days without thinking or saying anything negative. Fast forward I tried everything to keep close friends associated with me while writing. I noticed when your going up the ladder  faster than your friends and family it's a problem. Well Bloopy was seven years in the making. I had a husband and children while juggling a 9 to 5. Hey sounds like most Americans. As I said there is nothing special about me except I got tired of saying what I could do. I was tired of waiting on someone to help me so I helped myself. This is for anyone who is tired of being tired. No matter what has happened you can be who you want to be.

Self Published Author with a few tips

hello guys I wanted to talk about my book Bloopy. It is so hard to sell books let alone have people come to your site. I have tried many things, most have failed. I decided to tell future authors what I am doing and what I am not. I have no degree in writing, this is just a dream. Can I make this dream come true? I am giving myself one year, I am also a store manager, but writing is my dream. I dream of young children reading my books all around the world.   Let me  say Agents are hard to find. No luck there. I am my own agent. I have learned that when you are self published the big publishing houses want you to sell about 10,000 copies, that is a lot when you are new and your name is just regular.  Some of the first things I learned was to find your target audience, only you know the group you are trying to appeal to. my group happens to be children and mothers. I also found a lot of reasonable sights that help you promote your book for under 100 the first compa...

ITS NOT EASY TO ACCEPT YOU MAY DIE ALONE..

Are you nasty to everyone you meet? Do you have friends or just associates? Are you one of those women who say all my friends are men? I have met quite a few women who have said this. let me be honest if you are over the age of fifty and you have no real friends and no family there is a real chance you may die alone. My great grandmother raised me. she was a gambler and a drunk, but like most kids, I loved my mother. and she was my mother. my great grandmother was beautiful and I loved the way she dressed. She wore cowboy boots and cowboy hats. she drank Seagrams Gin and played the blues. She had no husband and only one child. She barely saw her child like I barely saw my biological mother.  She cursed all her friends and slept with their husbands. my grandmother died of Cancer Breast Cancer. She had no husband, she was alone no friends came to visit. just her immediate family, some nights she would talk about going to a convalescent home, she was terrified of that. I was te...
