I opened this bookstore with the help of a webmaster, Paul from Eggplant software. He was an intellectual, and I am grateful for him, because he built me a storefront to sell my e-books, and someday real books.
He designed my blog, True Stories, because writer's like to write!
The company called Hint was created from my memoirs' title, "A Hint of the truth." The memoir was my first book, a book of short stories of my memories as a child, and a growing adult. The beginnings, the joys, the challenges, and the reoccurring struggles.
Hint is my business for book sales from my written works. I'm a freelance writer with a passion for storytelling, and a knack for creating compelling content. I believe that words have the power to inspire, educate, and empower people, and I strive to create content that does just that. I'm here to help you tell your story and connect with your audience. Let's work together to create something amazing!
Let's chat! I'd be happy to tell people who you are. What's your story?
My main attraction is Fascination: I am a patriot, a poetry collection. It's loaded with facts and descriptions of one country right after the other. There isn't much of a pause between the short poems, so it's a little jumpy. I did my best to convey the essence of each place I captured in my studies, my vision.
My son was in elementary school, and they celebrated Kwanzaa at school one day. I didn't know anything about Kwanzaa. In order to celebrate with him, I needed to figure out what people did during Kwanzaa. So I bought an encyclopedia of holidays and there were holidays for every country. Different celebrations for different places. It was a country by country encyclopedia of holidays. I decided to study one country at a time. I used about 5-7 resources for every country.
Simply, I had time to, to read and write, while I raised my son. I wrote poems because they would be shorter and I thought, easier for me to write down the things I learned. It was not that easy to paint a picture with a poem, especially a poem that will teach something. I worked a little everyday for 10 years. When I finished all the reading, I had a lot of help from good poets like Carol Lee Saffioti - Hughes from the blog post, In her shoes, and Wisconsin's famous poet, Stephen Kalmar to finish the poetry collection, Fascination.
From what I've heard, is you should look forward to going through Fascination more than once, in order to learn from it.
See the Reviews of Fascination on the blog.
I went to school to be a teacher. Teacher's didn't have a test to be a teacher until the early 2000's. I had to take it, and I didn't pass.
Point is, I am trying to teach the reader more than the facts. Also a sense of emotion for others.
All of the reading I did to imagine, what it'd be like to be somewhere else is an irreplaceable experience.
I got such a feel for places. And now I can see the diversity and our common grounds.
I urge you to listen to Fascination.
We gain from what we pay attention to and lose out on what we don't.
Learn something new everyday.
I kept a journal for two years. 2012-2014. An entry everyday and typed it up. It's called Conversations with God.
I took out the dates and did some editing of the journal entries. The days are intertwined.
Journaling taught me that, even with change, the way I feel doesn't change much, in meditation and in all reality.
I was recovering from dual addictions and dealing with mental illness.
I was a member of the local church for 7 years. I really got strong in my faith as I read and studied the bible.
I prayed until I was able to see God as a companion.
365 Day to celebrate is about celebrations.
There is at least 1 reason to celebrate everyday.
Fast facts, fun times, sad stories, traditional, religious and other holidays, public, political and observances.
365 Days to Celebrate is based on the 2025 calendar.
