The Bookmark Hub Update

Well, I'm happy to report that I have gotten past my temporary writing setback. For a while there I was finding it pretty hard to concentrate on writing and I just left it all alone for a few days. I did keep up my weekly post on True Confessions (which is doing quite well by the way) and on The Real Grandmothers of Charlotte blogs, but as for my book writing, I just wasn't feeling it! But today I got back in the seat and started firing away again and it felt pretty good.

I started out by redesigning the book cover on my book "VIVID". It has been replaced with a view of the night sky with stars twinkling and it actually lends credence to the book. After all, the stars factor in to a great degree in the story and lends itself to the premise, so this is a much more appealing cover for the book. You just have to check it out at http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008SV63H2. And there is an additional price reduction there on the book also!

Since I have gotten over my temporary funk about writing, I should be able to meet my deadline for completion by November 1, 2012 on the next book. This one is going to be great folks. I have put a lot of care and effort into making this book a fantastic read. I am expecting big things to come of this!

Look for more news on this upcoming project as I continue to make progress!

Thanks for stopping by.

What the book is about...

Marianne Starr is a believer. She believes that her fate in matters of the heart lies in wishes and falling stars. She has made her share of them and based her hopes on moonbeams, and placed her trust in the cosmos. Because of her unsuccessful attempts at finding true love on her own, she has relied on the heavens for quite some time now; waiting for some unseen force to bring him into her life. But, Marianne is in for a very different kind of meeting. She will learn that one must be careful what one wishes for, and that you just never know what means will bring about the fulfilled wishes. She is faced with deciding what is reality and what is not because it all seems so VIVID.

Introducing My New Book; VIVID...

Introducing “VIVID”

A story about just how we can have thoughts and dreams so powerful and real, they become three dimensional.

 Maybe it will forever be a mystery about what lies within the unlimited imagination and the untold powers it has to manifest itself as real. Surely it’s something all of us have thought about at one time or another in our lives; albeit fleetingly. Such was the case with Marianne Starr had often caught a “falling star” and put it in her pocket, believing in the lyrics of the song.

Even as an adult she had sat at her window at night looking up at the heavens when she would recall the nursery rhyme 'Twinkle, twinkle little star...'and faithfully made her wishes never doubting the validity of her actions. A part of her adulthood seemed forever associated with her childhood, and often the two overlapped.

Sometimes she was positive that she lived in another world and was only here in this one because of some cruel joke that had played on her, and if she wished long and hard enough to be with her one truelove, she would be taken to him in that faraway place she could only dream of. Had she wished upon and blew kisses at one too many magic moonbeams? Were her innocent imaginings the very catalyst that had propelled her into an alter world?

Maybe there is another more believable explanation for the series of very unusual and eerie events that take place in Marianne’s life. While she is seemingly trapped there, she would think back on her vivid imagination and wish it hadn't been as active.

Travel along with Marianne and the interesting people she meets on her surreal journey, and decide for yourself if you want to continue your beliefs in the supernatural powers of the distant galaxies, or if you want to limit your imagination and childish wishes to what you can actually see and touch.
VIVID is a story about a lonely young woman named Marianne Starr, whose one persevering wish in life is to fall in love with her very own Prince and to have him love her back.

This book will be available soon early August on Amazon.com
