Is it true that it's nearly impossible to get your book published if you're not already well-known? (I feel like I'm getting mixed messages on this.)
I have done hundreds of hours of research concerning obtaining an agent. The prevailing, and correct, view is to seek out an agent. There are several reasons. 1. Agents are working for you, they will work to secure you the best possible deal (they g…
What is the average income of a published author? Who makes more - fiction writers or non-fiction writers? What is the selection process for a publisher? Do you have to know the publisher? Do you need an agent? Queries or slushpiles (a very telling…

[Insert Name]
Those tools that seep
And drain the life [freedom] from
You. Hinder your potential.
I will get this done at this time
What time is there in the endless waves
That bounce from one thing
To another?
Interruptions.
I feel anxious. Think about
What to say [quickly],
So I can continue.
Continue what?
Damn!
Lost. Naked. I don’t know
Where anyone is.
What if I need something?
What if I need you [all]?
Priority:
“It won’t send?!”

Arty Chapter 1 - Mercey
Chapter 1 - Mercy
Arty grew up in a wasteland of forgotten dreams,
Brought on by passing indulgences
Again, etc.
Niether Mother nor Father taught him
The honorable morals of life and love.
They were absent. Gone.
A man, as the laws supplies, is responsible
For himself in every way.
Deceitful
Ugly
Vengeful
Drunken
He encounters Deceitful, Ugly, entities.
Those Vengeful, Drunken bastards
Were always upon him,
Mercilessly pushing their dark way into his face,

Colorful Memories
A display sits among
the green and the fog - alone;
Memories are seen by swirling
pastels.
Picasso, Botticelli, and little Jenny.
The masterpieces of an age and ages
of subtleties and angles,
of pictures and hues.
Wipe away the pain and fear,
sponge the old rose,
and loosen your turning wheels.
The colorful chalk drips
onto the green and
the earth will drink away
all of your memories.
A clean slate -
nothing to see.
An artist awaits, but
little Jenny has no interest.
Picasso lost his paints.

Corset-Undone=Mature Rating=A Sestina
I want to untie the knots with my tongue
while I breathe deeply and savor the flower's scent.
Brushing the cords aside will reveal
petals that blush with a kiss
and open upon the command of so many words
and tentative touches that turn into a caress.
The saran wrap will fall with many a caress
and together we will be tied -- tongue to tongue.
Lust and desire are apt words
that describe such carnal feral-ity -- such a noxious scent.
Electric storm with a blissful kiss.
