My First Book Is A Winner, Next Up Publishing

I have some exciting news for you all...{whoever is reading this blogging mess}. I have tried out every year for the past 2 summers and springs for a contest to finish a book with 50,000 words. Who ever wins gets free bragging rights, a free first edition published of your winning book {which I was proud to make all myself, and also happy to say that I have my first edition of my book in my hands at every moment} and let me tell you, there is no real pride than finishing a book. Getting it done. Telling all your good friends, and making your family proud of you for once!! I can never really say I do this all the time, but now that I have won once I have it in my blood to finish more books, and keep thing winning streak going. They are going to be having another writing contest in July, and it looks as though July might be a very busy month for me. There are two writing contests in July, one is the one I have already won, then there is the contest where they actually give you $100 dollars for the Best Fiction Book, so I might be doing both we will have to see for now!! I have a lots to plan, and lots of writing to do!! If you all want to know the Writing Camp I did {and won} here is the link:

They are really good at helping you make your mark, and hitting that 50,000 mark. With the will, a little bit of self strength, and the motivation to get something done is in your blood, than here you go!! Let me tell you the bragging rights feel good, I am not much of a bragger, but that was because I didn't do much to deserve to brag! The month is over, and now my book is nearly forgotten. I plan to get this baby out in stores by Summer, but it might take till Fall! Either way this book is going to get published, I am proud of it, I want people to read it, I want people to get shivers when they read it. I do want to thank the movie Silence Of The Lambs for giving me all the thoughts that came to mind while writing this book, I could go outside the box and think deep dark thoughts just to get through this book. I also want to thank my friends who stuck by me, I don't want to give their names, due to if they want to remain unknown!! They know who they are, and I just want to thank them through all the writing, all the missed days I could have been talking to them, and all the birthday wishes I wished I could have made. I missed a lot of things because of this book, but I was obsessed to get it finished, but they all know that I am back! Thank you all my dear friends! Here is some links I would also like to thank:

If it wasn't for Lulu Publishing I wouldn't have my work with all its flaws sitting in my room looking ever so handsome on my desk. Even though there is a lot of mistakes in the book, this is how I wrote it out and how I wanted it to look, its my first Edition so it should look like this!! So thank you Lulu Publishing!!

Well that is all for now. Just wanted all my blogger readers to know what I have been up to, and why I have been gone for a little bit. If I am ever M.I.A like this just know that I am busy with new work, or sick!! Thank you all for reading, and one day soon you will all see my work!! My Winning Book Whisper's Among The Pines!!
