VS Grenier Update

Some people wonder if years of hard work really pay off. Well it all depends on what you feel a good pay off is. I know for me a good pay off is seeing my hard work noticed by others, instead of the monetary compensation. Why? Because I like knowing what I'm doing is not only helping me grow but also helping others as well.

As an author and freelance editor is it nice to be paid for my work. I need money to pay my bills, take my kids on fun outings, etc. However, the feeling I get when I get published or help another writer achieve their goals/dreams is nothing money can even come close to. Do I hope to make it BIG one day? It would be nice, but it isn't my goal. I don't dream of swimming in a pool full of money and living in some HUGE house I would have to hire a team of people to clean. What I do dream about is making a difference in people's lives and my leaving a legacy behind for my children, their children and the many generations after them.

I'm happy to say part of dream has come true. To many this may seem minor when looking at the whole picture. That may be true, but every small step toward your dream, no matter how small is a goal accomplished and that my friends is success to me. As long as I keep moving forward, I'm successful and my dream will one day become a reality.

With all that said, I'm happy to announce after a little over two years Blog Talk Radio's editorial staff has made The World of Ink Network one of their Featured Hosts. Marsha Casper Cook and I are so excited, along with our co-hosts. We have all worked so hard to bring our listeners and BTR's listeners some really great shows on writings, authors, the publishing industry and so much more.

I want to thank my followers for listening to my shows and my co-hosts shows. Without your support The World of Ink Network wouldn't have been given this honor. I know I look forward to bring you all some really great shows in the feature along with my co-hosts.

For those of you who haven't had a chance to listen to our weekly shows at The World of Ink Network, I invite you do come listen to our past shows and upcoming shows at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/worldofinknetwork

Embracing Intuition, Mediumship, and the Journey to Holistic Wellness

In the recent episode of "The Soul's Whisper," we embarked on an enthralling journey through intuition, spirituality, and holistic wellness, led by Krystal Parry, an evidence-based medium and Reiki master. Our conversation meandered through the corridors of personal narratives and the subtle yet powerful messages the universe imparts upon us. As we delved into our own stories and laughed together, we discovered how engaging with our clairvoyant and clairsentient abilities allows us to gracefully traverse the chapters of our lives, fostering a more profound sense of connection. We ventured into the intricate tapestry that interlinks energy work, metaphysical understanding, and the pursuit of a holistic lifestyle. Krystal Parry illuminated our understanding of Reiki, aligning it with our body's energetic pathways. We pondered the crossroads where spirituality meets the empirical, touching upon the intriguing realms of quantum mechanics and cell biology. Our discourse ve...

Guest Post Wed: Creating Unique Characters

Too many characters in novels are too much alike. As a result, the stories and the characters' actions (and reactions) become predictable. You'd already know what would happen only a few chapters in the story! This is what you want to avoid when you're writing your own story – having characters that are too much like the other characters.
