<p><em><strong>Introduction To This Blog</strong></em></p>
<p>This Blog is for those writers who want to be successful<br />
writers, but amid all of the proper ways and how to’s may<br />
be feeling a bit discouraged. (Note the word <em>proper</em>)</p>
<p>This Blog is also for those who simply want what they<br />
want for their lives and need a bit of inspiration.</p>
<p>I’m using this blog, to show those of us who seem to have<br />
a keen interest in the workings of manifestation, that as<br />
we apply our new understandings to the things we want, it<br />
DOES work, and it can work easily.</p>
<p>Do we have to be SURE, in order to get what we want?<br />
NO. Do we have to follow somebody’s rules? NO.</p>
<p>Do we have to feel a confident knowing in our end results<br />
in order to have success flow to us, versus chasing it? NO.</p>
<p>Do we even have to really know what we want, other than<br />
success? NO.</p>
<p>Can we have others slam our work, our writing and our<br />
general life expression, and still be successful? YES!<br />
Why Yes? Because We have something in common with<br />
Madonna and New York Times Best Selling Author, Jodi<br />
Picolot.</p>
<p>Why Yes? Because NONE of it has anything to do with<br />
what we think it has to do with!</p>
<p>I offer the example of my very first book based on<br />
applying all that I was learning in regard to manifesting<br />
and higher skills, at the time. I had limited income,<br />
meaning, I didn’t have the flexible cash to hire editors,<br />
book cover designers or promotional campaigns. What I<br />
did have, was the desire to write a book and have it out<br />
there in printed form, and available for anyone who<br />
wanted it.</p>
<p>I had a choice to make:<br />
Write the book anyway and put it out there somehow&#8230;any<br />
way that I could, doing the best I could and knew, at the<br />
time. <strong>OR</strong>, wait until I had the proper everything in place<br />
and my book perfected.</p>
<p>I did, put it out. Was I proud of it? YES, Heck Yes! No<br />
matter what anyone else said or thought.</p>
<p>I received lots&#8230;.LOTS of great feedback and still do, all<br />
of the time on this first book, it built the strong and fun<br />
foundation of my writing livelihood, its extensions, as<br />
well as other areas of my life.</p>
<p>I also received a few of comments about the editing being<br />
really bad&#8230; those posts are still on Amazon. And, I also<br />
received other comments, along the lines of not caring<br />
or noticing about the editing.</p>
<p>My thoughts? So what?<br />
My thoughts? Whomever is to read my books&#8230;will be<br />
led to them, in spite of whatever the shape of whatever&#8230;<br />
is. (This certainly contradicts much we are told in the<br />
writing world.)</p>
<p>I kept going.</p>
<p>I was given by surprise, a great website&#8230;..for my first<br />
book. It was beautiful! It was just like the one I put up on<br />
my <em><strong>Magic Wall.</strong></em> It happened to be <em>MJ Rose’s</em> site that<br />
I pasted on my wall. She’s helped me in many ways, in<br />
my beginnings of <em><strong>how am I gonna do this writing thing</strong><strong>?</strong></em></p>
<p>My first book went on to have enough sales, that I was<br />
invited into a special program (no charge to me), which<br />
then gave me a brand new cover, a great editing job, a<br />
short run promotional campaign AND a 12 page<br />
outstanding review of my book, of which was reviewed by<br />
a <em><strong>ghost writer for the biggies</strong></em> in the market I write in. I’ve<br />
added some of those comments at the top of the reviews<br />
page on the other section of this blog.</p>
