Dear best friend
I am thinking that my block is because I am writing for the husband, Stan, instead of Bexley and he is just trying to keep things together without falling apart. He is distracting his goddaughter Shadow with a music lesson. Ugh it’s all a mess… anyway, how is everything for you and how is your writing?

Dear best friend, Thank you my dear❤️!! I am so happy you liked my article on Notre-Dame. So, the main reason I picked Notre-Dame is because its a Catholic cathedral with Christian roots. It has inspired many types of famous artists to paint it and also inspired books (Hunchback of Notre-Dame)and religious art that is important to the history of that church.

Dear best friend
Dear best friend, I loved what you said about how you would rather be authentic than being a camouflage writer! That is so true. It makes me think of how I found my true author voice. How I used to write only in the male, first person perspective, but now I feel comfortable writing male & female perspectives.

Dear best friend
Dear best friend, How is your writing going? I hope you are well. I know you were struggling about genre but overall, in a series or a book, there is always a genre stronger than the other that will be the marketable one your readership will be interested in.

Dear best friend . Top Story - June 2023.
Dear best friend, Trust me, I know how this feels. When I was working on a short story for school about a character named Jack, he was mysterious to me. Revealing slowly his dark family trauma, it was difficult and I remember feeling like it was hard to relay... Much like John’s even more terrible past with her mother, but it truly is revealed for a reason.

Dear my best friend, Right now I am waiting on my sales figures for I am Bexley. Resurgence Novels has not paid me anything yet but is going to start paying me my royalties and bonus payments (from my contract and otherwise) I believe in late July.

Garbage-man
I grew up to be a garbage-man. I don’t love what I do yet I feel like it was my calling. I feel like taking out the trash and cleaning the streets was the reason I was born. My mother Prudence was a stern schoolteacher and taught me how to read and write. She tried to get me to understand mathematics and science and other subjects I just couldn’t quite grasp.
