GO WEST YOUNG WOMAN

This story is atypical of many groups who headed west in the earliest migrations. Getting a late start, a small group of wagons left Sapling Grove, Missouri on May 12, 1841. In the group were 35 men, 5 women and 10 children. about 20 miles west or Independence, MO., and not one of them had any notion of what lay ahead.

Of the women in the group three were married, one was a widow and one was a girl of marriageable age traveling with kin. Totally…

I am a legally blind freelance writer. I have written about how my Iife has changed since I lost vision in right eye and most in the left. I became a writer after the 2005 Hurricane Katrina. I began to experience eye problems in 2010. But later in 2011 my problems had gotten worse. I came to realization that my eyes isn't getting any better and decided to keep going with the help of vision awareness, who gives insight and information for the blind and vision impaired. I grew confidence, and…

On being here

Every human being experiences a sense of contention and resistance to being in a plane that feels like separation. The desire to re-member what you are within ME is more than a yearning. It feels much more like an unfulfilled drive that you have no hope of achieving. From the moment the physical body slides out of the birth canal, the very first physiological impression is loss and separation.

Impression number two is survival through alerting everyone in…

you play too many characters at same time it always happens in story of life.

Everyone has questions about life, perhaps a lot of them, and many of them feel as though they will go unanswered for all eternity. Not so. Divining Truth, Straight Talk From Source (the story) by Toni Elizabeth Sar’h Petrinovich, PhD furnishes the answers to the most daunting questions about life, relationships, religion, spirituality, heaven, hell and so much more. No longer does anyone need to wander around wishing there was someone with the answers sought so desperately. Now, one…

In researching for Western Historical Novels, I've run across some strange historical facts. I thought I'd share a few of them here, and illustrate how some showed up in my romance novels.

Frank James quoted Shakespeare, and he and brother Jesse liked to have their pictures made. In Images In Scarlet, they kidnap Allie Caine to take those photos.

If you think the Civil War actually ended when Lee surrendered, then it’s back to the books. The final battle took place out west at…

A late post this week because I was off to Black Belt Camp on Thursday.

Once again, I must admit I didn't write the basic points to this blog. I did, however write the details under each point. This blog is credited to author Will Lavender, who I met at the 2012 Killer Nashville conference. He presented this seminar on plot fundamentals.

I enjoyed this seminar even though I'm a…

Then He will bless it,

Then God will multiply it,

If necessary resurrec it,

Terrify enemies who try to block it,

Crush all who suppress, and contest it,

And then,

Let me prevail because He is for this
