Lyrics:
Wanna be loved every night
Wanna know she’s only mine
Breathe her in, give me life
Got all these hearts in line
They all wasting their time
‘Cause only you do me right
Baby, you should pick up the phone
‘Cause I’m wondering if you’re alone
‘Cause I’m driving down Sunset
If you’re ’round, come get it
If you come, come get it
I wanna be missed like every night
I wanna be kissed like it’s the last time
Say you can’t eat
Can’t sleep, can’t breathe without me
I wanna be held, fragile like glass
‘Cause I’ve never felt nothing like that
Say you can’t walk
Can’t talk, go on without me
Aren’t you tired every day?
‘Cause I run through your brain
Hold me down, keep me safe
This is as good as it gets
Don’t you dare second guess
Only want you saying yes
Baby, you should pick up the phone
‘Cause I’m wondering if you’re alone
‘Cause I’m driving down Sunset
If you’re ’round, come get it
If you come, come get it
I wanna be missed like every night
I wanna be kissed like it’s the last time
Say you can’t eat
Can’t sleep, can’t breathe without me
I wanna be held, fragile like glass
‘Cause I’ve never felt nothing like that
Say you can’t walk
Can’t talk, go on without me
Say, say you can’t eat
Say, say you can’t sleep
Say, say you can’t breathe
You can’t breathe without me
You can’t breathe without me
I wanna be missed like every night
I wanna be kissed like it’s the last time
Say you can’t eat
Can’t sleep, can’t breathe without me
I wanna be held, fragile like glass
‘Cause I’ve never felt nothing like that
Say you can’t walk
Can’t talk, go on without me
I wanna be missed, come hold me
I wanna be kissed, come feel me
Come, come make me feel missed (I wanna be missed)
Come, come make me feel missed
I wanna be held, come hold me
I wanna be felt, come feel me
Come on make me feel missed (come on make me feel)
Girl, come make me feel missed
Make me feel missed
My Two Cents-
It’s pride month and I couldn’t resist the urge to post a girlfriend song. I really enjoy this song. I am Pansexual. My blog is always a safe place for all. What is your favorite Gay song?
Monday Poetry
Never meant for resolve
War was never meant to solve anything but rather, create something.The war on drugs or poverty has never resolved either but has deepened the appetite of both.War only serves those who call for it.
Never meant for resolve
Monday Funnies…
Monday Funnies…
worst thing is that there are a couple of these that sound like my boyfriend and I….
Writing is so weird.
Every writer will tell you that writing is not the easiest thing to do. The characters will refuse to be written if you have any thing off, such as the title or maybe the idea of who are writing. Serena has been struggling with the second book in her zombie series. She was trying to keep the name similar to the first one. The first book – Rust, Gore, and the Junkyard Zombie – was named appropriately. It worked for the book. She was also struggling with the cover. Nothing I was designing fit what she was wanting.
Through experiments and discussion I believe that we have found the right title and series title. (I will have to adjust RGatJZ later to add the subtitle).
Book 2 will be The Art of Zombie.
The series Title is going to be the World Gone Wrong.
She is back to work…writing more undeath. I have a cover design that she is happy with. (reveal will be closer to the release date)

Perfection Goblins
So I was going through a manuscript today…previously published. I am oddly confident in what I publish. I am aware that every book – even the ones published by the big publishers – often still have typos and other minor issues. There was only 2 minor typos. I was quite impressed. Now that being said…I wonder how many times I have missed errors. I employ a multiple eyes on a project policy. This means that the anthologies that Fae corps publishing puts together are edited by myself, and then I ask the authors to go through and let me know any mistakes I missed. Especially from their own story. I ask for them to read the whole thing and point out anything missed in the entire anthology. Because in the end I want to publish something that each author is proud of.
The perfectionist in me though edits it, then runs it through grammarly, then triple checks for anything that I may have missed. I feel like I have to be better because I am a small press. I am embarrassed by any mistakes that come with publishing. So, I try to get it right the first time.
I took a writing class and I was extremely embarrassed by the way it was done. There was a hot seat session. I handed, for my turn, an unedited version of a work in progress. The person who was running the class proceeded to tear into what was wrong. I hope that no one has to deal with that. I had not adjusted the layout and had things that I knew needed fixed because I wanted to see what the teacher would do. She made such a big deal about the minor things that I felt like I was doing awful. It was something that could have made me walk away from writing. I was irritated by the way I was feeling. Instead, I decided that I would learn to do it better. I would never send my work out to be edited without it being edited by me first.
When you judge people you have no idea what you are doing to them. You could end up being the reason why they give up. Or you could be the reason why they knuckle down and improve. The only person who can possibly know what they are going to do is the one you are judging.
okay, I am done random rambling. What do you feel like has to be perfect? why?
Artsy Fartsy Thursday
I have always been envious of the Talent for art my brother has. I got a talent for words, he got the talent for art. I have to work hard to learn how to do things that come naturally to him. I have been building skills in art.
However, that being said…for me it all started with a dog. my mom showed me how to do a simple dog. I used that to start learning how to draw other things.
