I love History, Science Fiction and Mystery, so I was delighted to see all those combinations in this book. I was enchanted as I read this novel that took me down a possible path twisted by a time machine. What if there had been no Declaration of Independance and Britian won the war over the colonies?

Interesting topic. I have just finished a novel for teens on a Friendship in 1846. I hope it will be out in January.
Good luck wwith your book

Just as a curiosity, the saying you quote as anonymous about inspiration and perspiration is a version of a phrase by Thomas Alva Edison:
"Genius is one per cent inspiration, ninety-nine per cent perspiration".
It appeared originally in Harper's Monthly in 1932.
Thanks for an excellent article, Lillian, which I have only now come across

I appreciate your remarks, Lillian, and on the side, I LOOOOOVVE your name. - My grandmother........ but that's a different topic!
Back to the first: I appreaciate your comments, and I'd like to add that I also have always kept a log/file of the input and letters from readers who gain from my work. That's good to view when rejection hits. It's a counter tool and a reminder to keep surfing.
Glad to see you here. - Stephanie

Excellent advice, Lillian.
I, too, was published by Publish America, and, I, too, soon learned that I had to do all the marketing - on my own. But, as you say, I had nothing to lose - only things to gain.
Midwest Book Review did give me an excellent review on my animal book, as did Animal Planet. Sales are slowly going up, and I've learned - you can do it; but, nothing worth doing is easy.
Thanks for posting this.

All of these are good suggestions to poke through the haze of writer's block, especially keeping in touch with your unconscious mind. Thanks, Scott.
The Fly and The Spider (Poetry) - 7/25/2009 8:40:14 AM
Ver interesting poetry.
Gnarled Nature (Poetry) - 11/8/2008 2:08:12 AM
Delightful
Infinity... (Poetry) - 8/15/2008 2:57:24 PM
What a creative and effective style. Like well done modern art, I read the words several times, seeing different pictures and feeling different emotions. It is trully alive and interactive with the reader.
Gnarled Nature (Poetry) - 8/12/2008 6:36:51 AM
Hi...... :)
NICE one.
Experimental (Poetry) - 8/12/2008 6:25:05 AM
Very short. But this is great!
I am a newbie here, i hope i am not intruding...
Experimental (Poetry) - 7/3/2008 8:56:11 AM
Strength and weakness, two diffent contrasting things. We need strengh but weakness gets us nowhere. We need the good Lord's guidance and strength will come to us all and in weakness we show no progress and go backwards. Sometimes weakness as in illness cannot be helped though, just a thought added to this. good write**********
Gnarled Nature (Poetry) - 7/3/2008 8:54:28 AM
I like to sit outside at table and just watch the little ants scurring too and fro. Sometimes carrying loads much too big for them and struggling along. Watching them I kind of wonder why I don't work harder to feed my family, and to get more work done. They are really good workers as the honey bee is too collecting honey for the hives. Honey is sweet and good for the soul and medicinal too. Always give me a lift as this poem did today. Thanks LOL **********
Death (Poetry) - 5/19/2008 7:42:22 AM
At least she was surrounded by her loved ones and that made you all feel better I know. Death is cruel and when the good Lord wants you he takes you wherever. Death is not final though. She is up there with the angels and doing great works and things and praising god best of all.
Gnarled Nature (Poetry) - 5/5/2008 5:11:29 AM
I like the style and imagery in this. Well done.
Child Fishing (Poetry) - 5/5/2008 4:16:38 AM
A reflection of something we all do...and hope to turn around before it's too late. "Too long out of water" indeed.
Death (Poetry) - 3/30/2008 6:56:14 AM
Wonderful write of the end of life. Almost exactly duplicated with my dear grandma Renee in her bedroom in our home with family all around young and old alike as she passed on. Deborah

Interesting write~`*
White Lies (Poetry) - 10/24/2007 12:53:38 PM
What a sad-but-all-too-true observation on what our society has sunk to. As electronic media permeates the very fabric of society, too many of us simply cannot tell the difference between truth and lies, any more... Doc
Child Fishing (Poetry) - 9/23/2007 10:15:07 AM
Oh...so sad. Wonderful glimpse of a memory.

An innocent child in the wonders of the outside world, experiencing and learning, a lovely write...

White Lies (Poetry) - 9/11/2007 9:30:10 AM
The truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth, might this even be a white lie?
The only truth I know is Jesus Christ (John 14:6) and the more I get to know Him the more I learn just how important His grace and mercy really is.
Good write and thanks for sharing your poetic boldness.
God Bless You and Your Loved Ones
Death (Poetry) - 8/4/2007 9:07:56 AM
Haunting, emotional, eloquent, beautiful. I am so sorry for your loss.
White Lies (Poetry) - 7/25/2007 10:45:09 AM
Gooe write! Exceptionally covers the "current" American spirit: greed. Enjoyed immensely!!

Death (Poetry) - 7/11/2007 1:38:38 AM
How keen the writer's mind becomes in the face of tragedy. Yet you speak for us all who are priviledged to attend the end of life. It does not matter how long we tred this life as long as we leave it better in some little way. Your poetry will live forever.
Miller
I See Before Me... (Poetry) - 7/9/2007 7:54:25 AM
Very good poet. Good write. I love the idea.
White Lies (Poetry) - 7/9/2007 7:51:34 AM
Well penned. This is the American way. good write.
Death (Poetry) - 5/29/2007 7:48:36 AM
Happened to me with my dad. This sad poem brought me back to then. Very neatly written

White Lies (Poetry) - 5/24/2007 2:15:32 PM
You are amazing for speaking the truth. well expressed poet.
White Lies (Poetry) - 4/29/2007 10:42:59 AM
Good thought, I could see children asking this after hearing for so long this from their parents. Do all really lie? I doubt that, we only see the ones who get caught on the news so what are our children to think. Lady J
