Deeper People: Putting Yourself into Your Characters.

I subscribed to her email newsletters, writing tips, and well, pretty much everything I can get my hands on that's free, through email. She's got some incredibly wonderful tips and information on writing for YOU, and has been a great help through my process. I highly suggest, and encourage, any of you who write, to check out her page. I'm going to do this blog for a few posts. It's got great information!

Lots of warm hugs and love, free from me to you!

  2. I'm working on two. One is a paranormal fiction. I've been working on it for years.

    The other is Non-fiction; about raising a child with and Autism Spectrum Disorder. I'm half way through--and consulting my daughter along the way.

    Cheers, Jenn.

    1. Sounds like some good books! Great to have a "consultant" on it as well. :D

      Thanks Jenn!

  3. I have a few completed--though not yet edited--novels. Mainstream fiction. Were I to write a non-fiction book, it would definitely be about raising kids to be happy, well-adjusted, solid, confident, responsible people.

    1. And I don't doubt that it would be a great book since you've always got a great view on things.

      Thanks Beth!

  4. Avoiding exact subjects in the four books I have written so far (none published but we live in hope), I know what I do best so it would be something dark. I really want to write the perfect haunted house story, but Shirley Jackson got there first! But yes, if I could write something approaching her skill about a haunted house, that's the one.

    1. That would be very interesting to read. I quite love the "dark" side of life. lol

      Thanks!

Ladies and Gentlemen….

Normally, right about now, I would feel inclined to continue with “and children of all ages” (guess I’ve been to the circus just one time too many) but this time instead of introducing some dancing bears or the Flying Wallendas, I’m simply here to introduce myself. My name is Tracie Dee . I’ve been writing for about 4 years now and got my start blogging on MySpace. I love writing but these days, I’m also finding enjoyment with vlogging. I have found that videos are a nice way to share what words alone might not give justice to and also for people to really get to know the person behind the words and the keyboard. Overall, I consider myself to be a pretty down to earth and upbeat person, whose sense of humor can be a bit wacky at times. Hey, life can be rough and sometimes laughter and levity can be our only saving grace to help us get through it all. I consider it to be our very own little light at the end of the tunnel that serves to remind us that even during the very worst

Bucket Lists

"Its never too late to be what you might have been" – George Eliot I’ve been a late bloomer in pretty much every aspect of my life. Some of it was out of my control (I mean I really couldn’t help if Mother Nature has a twisted sense of humor and exercised it heavily on me during my teens and twenties) but I can’t put all of the blame for it on her, either. Some of it was also by my personal choice. And by that, I mean I used to be very shy and afraid of “what was out there” in the big, scary world so I would rarely try anything new or took any chances of any kind. I chose instead to do my best to hide away from life, tucking myself away from it safely like a tight little rosebud that had not yet bloomed. But there is a quote that says “And the time came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.” This was the case for me. As time went on, my rosebud shell grew more and more uncomfortable for me. So one day I just took a c

Silent relaxing sunday--wait it's Saturday. A day lost and found! :)

This week's   GBE   is about "Lost and Found." I know a lot of people some years back thought that I'd lost myself. I was even told it was the better part of myself. It took me years to figure out that it wasn't true. Somewhere in the back of my mind, I always believed it to be true. Until I finally had the courage to admit to myself, that they were in the wrong; not me.  That's the problem with some "friends." They aren't really your friends. Someone recently told me something that really hit home. It was profound even.  She said:  "The friend is not a friend. just a person with emotional gravity in your life."    Well that's true. Granted, the comment she had made was from a completely different happening, but still it works.  A lot of people are fortunate in having tons of close friends, even close friends that stick around their entire lifetime. I gave up on that notion a long time ago. I realized that mostly, friends w
