I’ve been writing my entire life, and for a short time I even got paid for writing. Then I stopped. Point of view was my issue.
The only thing that my pen produces on paper though is smut. Instead of fighting this, I’m delving into the craft of erotic fiction. It’s fun to work on character development and the writing process while working eroticism into it, and it’s a big market right now so maybe I can get back to earning pay for it. before I can publish, I have to write.

For the first time in like 19 years, I own a good camera. So now I have to start taking more pics. I have already, but I want MORE.
I’ve read:
Finding Iris Chan by Paula Kamen;
Seen It All and Done the Rest by Pearl Cleage;
(reread) All God’s Children Need Travelling Shoes by Maya Angelou;
Making Jack Falcone by Joaquin Jack Garcia;
Part of Madame Dread:A Tale of Love, Vodou and Civil Strife in Haiti by Kathie Klarreich;
Mistress of the Vatican: The True Story of Olimpia Maidalchini: The Secret Female Pope by Herman, Eleanor;
Fearless Fourteen by Janet Evanovich;
Plum Lucky, J. Evanovich.
Madame Dread got lost before I finished it, equalling a big fat library fine. I often forget to return the books or am just too lazy to. This is a short list for a year, but it’s longer than my 2007 list. So I guess I’ve made progress. Tomorrow, I will fix the library fine and get more books.
