Writers On The Move: Mother's Day Poetry (and freebie)

Writers On The Move: Mother's Day Poetry (and freebie): It's almost Mother's Day (or Mothering Sunday if you're in the UK). Here in Australia, Mother's Day is Sunday the 13th of May. Since Magdilena Ball is both mother and daughter, she's managed to convince her poetry partner (also a mother and daughter) Carolyn Howard-Johnson to let giveaway their motherly poetry book She Wore Emerald Then

From now through to May 14th (US time) you can grab a copy of She Wore Emerald Then from Smashwords for the budget-smashing price of $0.00. Find out more at http://www.writersonthemove.com/2012/05/mothers-day-poetry-and-freebie.html

Get Up & Get Moving: Week 9

Well, this past week was another busy week at my house. I somehow hurt my rib cage on which pretty much kept me from doing any exercising. Not sure what I did or even how it happened, but it is pretty sore. My baby girl isn’t happy mommy can’t carry her around all day because it hurts too much. I’m hoping after another week of resting, I’ll be back up and moving around in less to no pain.

12 Nuggets of Writing Wisdom

Douglas Clegg said, "Get out and live and travel and see the world from  perspectives other than the one with which you've been saddled.

John Steinbeck said, "When I face the desolate impossibility of writing 500 pages,  a sick sense of failure falls on me and I know I can never do it. This happens  every time.

Interview Friday with author Frances Pauli

Frances Pauli was born and raised in Washington State . She grew up with a love of reading and storytelling, and was introduced to Science Fiction and Fantasy at an early age through the books kept and read by her father. Though she always held aspirations to be a writer, she chose to obtain her Bachelor’s degree in visual arts. The stories, however, had other plans for her.

Her fascination with Science Fiction and a growing passion for the NASA channel divert her happily into tales of the far future, alternate dimensions, and the wonders of space, usually with at least a touch of romance. Frances current...
