Hi Lisa, Look forward to reading your Blog and thank you for getting in touch. Probably the easiest way to learn about my writing, and myself, is via my website www.annofarrell.net I also have a FB group page.
As an Irish writer the month of March was particularly busy (Saint Patrick's day etc) and two radio interviews I gave, that were broadcast on that day, can be found on www.tantalk1340 keep on writing. Ann.
Thank you so much my dear for your comments.I'm glad to inform you that the work is original in the sense that it revolves around a true event that I particularly witnessed.
The main characters in that novel potray the real attitude of my late aunt and her husband.While I have used narrative technique in such a manner that reveals my natural sense of humour as seen in the book,almost all events happened.Except where I had to exaggerate for dramatic effect or to hide certain traits that are directly traceable to my real life characters.
Hope you will find it interesting.
It's yet to be published as I still need trusted publishers.
Hello Lisa. I write fiction. Kings, knights and warhorses are my favorite but I also travel into space and to other dimensions. haha Pleased to meet you.
It is a pleasure to meet you. I am currently working on a thriller and write poetry, too. While I am not published, I am working toward that goal. I look forward to reading your blog. Many thanks for your note!
I have not written anything myself – I love books and prefer helping Authors reach success rather than write one of my own. It will be interesting to see if this changes over time.
What does an Author’s Assistant do? I can do so much, but I will attempt to be brief and concise.

Book Marketing: help find professional resources - publicist, photographer, web designer, copywriter.
Those are some of the services that are provided with some descriptives. Other services include helping with traditional PR and internet marketing.
I appreciate the privilege to provide this information for you,
Nice to hear from you. Yes, the novel Coloured Sands is based on true historical facts (early settlement) but the story is all fiction. It is the first of a trilogy (Coloured Sands Trilogy) set in central Queensland on a huge landscape around the beautiful Carnarvon Gorge area. My website gives details of the three books. www.colouredsandstrilogy.com.au.
I'd love to count you as a friend on Facebook AnnaLWalls@gmail.com Find me and I'll accept. You'll also find all manner of links there and on my fan page. See you there.
Honestly Lisa,you sound pretty good like an angel,though I feel strongly you are one.My dear, this happens to be my first book. I will only say that I'm lucky to have a flair for the pen; then the book got a good editor in the person of Mr.Kofi Akpabli who won the 2010 CNN African Journalist of the year award.(Culture and Tourism).
The manuscript is ready for the machines to roll over it,but I am being careful.I have got offers here and there from Publishers in Nigeria and Ghana,but I want the best because its success will go a long way in shaping my mind and writing decisions.
So,Lisa as an author,I will like to have words with you.Let's talk on facebook.
Hi Lisa! Thanks for the invite! I have an almost completed Romance novel, however, I've been diligently working on 2 screenplays. One is in the finishing stage and is a Family/Fantacy film about a Christmas Elf. I will be pitching it in Hollywood at the end of the month, so wish me luck! I DO plan on finishing my novel:)
Thank you for the message. Currently i'm about to self-publish a urban street fiction novel titled; A Set Up, due out around June/July of this year. i'm excited as it'll be my first one with pt. 2 and 3 due later. i also have a romance/fantasy novel titled; Lost Letters......Thinking of you that i want to release later this year. i would love to read your work.
Thank you for your message! I will check out your site. Well...mostly I'm here for inspiration. I feel like a 'fraud' as I am not published or anywhere near that stage - how Dear God I wish...
No, I'm a bit (read: a lot) lost in life. Hopelessly stuck in a job I hate (and a profession), but relegated to remaining in it due to the enormous student loan debt (over $100k). It's terrifying and depressing. I don't want to be a negative nelly though! ;) Writing, reading, nutrition, baking, etc - they are all my passions.
I freelance currently on the side for Livestrong.com. However, I really want to pursue my own creative writings or go into self-help about my own struggle with depression, and what I call a third-life "thrisis" (about to enter my 30's). But I don't even know where to begin...and of course proposals, manuscripts, contents all need to be near completed to get anywhere!
The lack of time due to my job and having to earn money - there are only so many hours in the day - leaves with little time. I know, I know! Horrible excuse, but it's true for me right now. My spare time should be freelancing to make money. My "day" job also ''sucks out my energy and soul" (not to be overly dramatic of course :) ) - but yes, and leaves me rather dejected at the end of the day with little promise.

So that's it. In a nutshell. I do blog: Baking N Books.
And that's "all she wrote".

Hello Lisa. I don't have a twitter account yet, so I don't know much about twitter.
