In the last few weeks, my mind has been chaos. There are personal obstacles I have had to face head on and I am still slowly jumping those tremendous hurdles. With writing, I have been for more and more ideas to get me motivated again, but they all seem to fall flat. 

At times, I want to simply give up. My pessimistic side says "You've been. You achieved your dream; your goal. Why not just relax and let it go?" 

The writer in me, the side of me that literally squealed upon receipt of the acceptance email, says simply: "No way in hell are you quitting! You remember that feeling of being accepted and published? You can do it again!"

I have decided to listen to the latter of the two. The optimist, the dreamer, the WRITER! So...I may try a gazillion different techniques to get myself motivated, and it may get annoying or messy at times. I'm not backing down though.

Oh yeah! I can't forget to mention the epiphany I had while at work last night. For any of you who are familiar with a well-loved character of mine that's been on hiatus for...well, over a year now...

Tabbi's coming back!!!!


However, that is the only hint you are getting. Don't know Tabbi? *smirks* You will.

While I don't exactly have time to write a full blog, I do want to share with the world that HerStory: Fiction Honoring Women's History Month was released for the public to buy earlier today!!! I have two stories within the book myself titled Please Stay and Your Honor, May I? The latter being very close to my heart and dedicated to my great grandmothers, may they rest in peace. 

On Amazon
Smashwords
Barnes & Nobel

You can buy the book at any of the links listed above. This has to be one of the BEST birthday gifts ever!! This now published writer just turned 31 years young yesterday. Between the day itself and the release of HerStory, this birthday has officially gone down in my book as the most memorable and exciting one yet. 

Please enjoy the book!! There were 26 other writers who did an amazing job putting this book together! Buy it to support them if not me. 

Tara & Angie did an amazing job on everything as well...and once I have a proper time to write a more OFFICIAL blog post, I will name more women involved who are very deserving of the credit.
