Apparently I am slacking in some reading!!

I just got done reading a book my aunt wrote.

Oh... you were talking in trouble about the book, not about the double post.

LOL, I can, and I did!!

What genre does your aunt write? My sister is a horror fiction writer.

Hey, if people are related to authors here, I need names of books.

I'm ALWAYS out of books.

She has only written one novel. It is a true story about her father, who was a pilot, overcoming a stroke and being able to fly again. Called Into the Blue, A Father's Flight, a Daughter's Return

Lol... JK was just talking about that on an interview the other day... about how she hates when people read the ending first... lol...

Horror is the main thing I write as well. Good times, so long as you have a nice store of inspiration to draw from (I get most of mine from alcohol-induced dreams). Nothing published yet, but you will be among the first to know if that changes.

I will check out her book. I like that kind of stuff.

My sister is Nancy A. Collins. My personal favorite of hers is Walking Wolf (it is about a man who is a werewolf but doesn't really understand what he is and is adopted by Native Americans who believe he is a god. Set in the old west, he runs into a vampire gunslinger and all sort of other trouble.

She just finished her last revision for new stuff that is coming out soon, but I'm not allowed to give out the title, yet.

Nancy A. Collins - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (that photo of her is horrible)

May Aunt is Susan Edsall, she is my uncle's wife. It was a very heartwarming book.

I will have to look into that book by your aunt. Sounds pretty cool. I have always wanted to write but my word do not describe the real feelings I have for what has happened. Niether the description so it is out of the question for me to do so. Maybe when I am older I will.

With writing, literally it's all about just doing it. A lot of people get intimidated and never attempt it, but if you just sat down with an empty piece of paper and not think about what your writing, but just wrote something, you might be interested in what you put down. I love writing, in all forms, poetry, music, books, and I think everyone can do it. I've actually had a few offers to have some poetry of mine published, but I turned them down. When I talk with other writers, the one way you get inspiration or grow, is reading and being able to recognize techniques of other writers.

I like to write poetry... but no one really gets it but me.. LOL.

On another note, I just thought I would share with everyone that as of next week on Wednesday the 1st, I will officially be a graduate! Woo hoo!

Ain't it a great feeling? I just got my diploma a couple of weeks ago.

Wow, Em, and Al, congrats! Lot's of good things happening!

Congrats Em and Al. Must be a wonderful feeling.

Some day I will gather all my thoughts and write and write and write... I would love to read some of your stuff, that would be nice!

Someday I'll get brave and post the link to my livejournal here. That's about all the writing I do.

I'm not that brave yet, though :)

Can't wati Synnen, that would be totally cool to read. How do you do a live journal. I could do that better than write on paper all the time!
