Great resource site
I've come across a great website for anyone wanting to get noticed in the publishing world. It's called Webooks.com and it's basically like all the other network sites (facebook, twitter, etc.) however they are strictly about writers that are passionate about their craft and want to get noticed. I thought this would be a great place to start for any frustrated, unpublished writers like myself. But it won't be long before I'm published! Just speaking it into existence!

Keyboard blues
Also my spacebar, and letters B & N on my laptop is not working. So if you see a post with a lot of underscores in it, I'm working from my computer otherwise I will try and use the library's computer to give you information. Although there are some crazy people at the library if no one haven't noticed. Then you are probably wondering what are you doing there right? I'm not crazy! At least that's what my therapist says! LOL!
Reasons
Ok I know everyone is just eager to read some more of my novel which I know you will buy once it's published! Hint, hint! However I will not include samples of the last few chapters because it defeats the purpose of writing the novel and getting it published so you wonderful people can buy. (Yes, my kids have to eat too!). But I will be posting my journey throughout the publishing process so my fans will know what I'm doing. Have a nice day bishes!

HATER
By: Maya Angelou
A hater is someone who is jealous and envious and spends all their time trying to make you look small so they can look tall.
They are very negative people to say the least. Nothing is ever good enough!
When you make your mark, you will always attract some haters…
That’s why you have to be careful with whom you share your blessings and your dreams, because some folk can’t handle seeing you blessed…
It’s dangerous to be like somebody else… If God wanted you to be like somebody else, He would have given you what He gave them! Right?
You never know what people have gone through to get what they have…
The problem I have with haters is that they see my glory, but they don’t know my story…
If the grass looks greener on the other side of the fence, you can rest assured that the water bill is higher there too!
We’ve all got some haters among us!
Some people envy you because you can:
a) Have a relationship with God
b) Light up a room when you walk in
c) Start your own business
d) Tell a man / woman to hit the curb (if he / she isn’t about the right thing)
e) Raise your children without both parents being in the home
Haters can’t stand to see you happy.
Haters will never want to see you succeed.
Most of our haters are people who are supposed to be on our side.
How do you handle your undercover haters?
You can handle these haters by:
1. Knowing who you are & who your true friends are *(VERY IMPORTANT!!)
2. Having a purpose to your life: Purpose does not mean having a job. You can have a job and still be unfulfilled. A purpose is having a clear sense of what God has called you to be. Your purpose is not defined by what others think about you.
3. By remembering what you have is by divine prerogative and not human manipulation.
Fulfill your dreams! You only have one life to live…when its your time to leave this earth, you ‘want’ to be able to say, ‘I’ve lived my life and fulfilled ‘my’ dreams,… Now I’m ready to go HOME!
When God gives you favor, you can tell your haters, ‘Don’t look at me…Look at Who is in charge of me…’

Sorry

Flashback_4_U!
Part One
Chapter 1
Bryan opened his eyes. His vision was blessed with the beautiful sight of Nia’s voluptuous apple bottom in his face. His slender hand reached out to touch it but stopped inches from her skin. He could feel the heat radiating off of her before her red spandex pants came between his hand and her ass. He felt his manhood deflate along with his arm.
“Damn shawty, you know how to spoil a mood,” he whined while rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.
Nia snapped her neck around. She swore she was going to be able to sneak out for a run before her horny man woke up. “I thought you were sleeping!”
Bryan licked his top lip causing a small waterfall to start in between her legs. He patted the empty spot next to him which was still slightly warm from her body heat.
“No! You know I got to do my morning run, now stop,” she answered playfully.
“I mean if it’s a workout you wantin’, shawty I got you.”
“Yeah I know. That was beautiful last night.” A delicious grin spread across her face. She bent down and gave him a kiss on the cheek. “But you know I got to clear my head before I go to work. I’ll be back for seconds. You just make sure it is at attention for me.” Nia reached inside the covers and gently massaged his manhood until it was saluting her.

Missed me?
I know you guys have missed me writing little samples of the book even though no one is writing comments! Hint, hint! Please don't let me call you out, I know who you are! But it's all good, I know that I have a good true fan base out there so it's all good! I have about one more chapter to do before I'm finished and then I can start resending the new version of 'Without Consent' out to new publishers and agents because like I said before, I am determined to have this in someone's hands and in the works by the end of the year. I've been hustling all year to get this project perfected and with everyone's prayers hopefully it will launch!

Friday's read
Ok, this week has been crazy. I'm still working on last week's read which is not like me at all. Usually I read a book in like two days but school and writing is taking up most of my time but I do have a book that you guys can check out.
Black Water Rising by Attica Locke
A little tease about the book:
Houston, Texas, 1981. It is here that Jay believes he can make a fresh start. That is, until the night in a boat out on the bayou when he impulsively saves a woman from drowning and opens a Pandora's box.
Told you I was going to tease you. Enjoy!

Publisher
I'm excited. I've found another Urban publishing company to look into so I will be submitting to them soon. Not going to say the name just yet until I actually email my work to them but keep your fingers crossed!
