I am going to be in Volume one. I am so excited about this! So without further ado….
️COVER REVEALS!!️Coffee House Writers is releasing two anthologies this winter! With nearly three dozen writers and over one hundred pieces total, there is something for everyone in these collections.
I don’t often post pictures of my daughter or myself, not on here. Today it seems important. I got a call this morning, while making breakfast and listening to her laughter as her and her dad were picking at each other.
I took her to the doctor yesterday. She is asthmatic, and her left lung has been hurting for a couple of days. She also had other concerns and needed shots. So the doc sent her for a chest X-ray.
That call was the nurse from the Doctor’s office. The X-ray came back as she has pneumonia. They want a covid test. And my heart dropped into my stomach. Since the pandemic hit we have been very careful. We don’t go anywhere, at least nowhere unnecessary. We are both asthmatic and her dad has emphysema. The whole lot of us are high risk.
So I am scared. I have a 16 year old stubborn girl who is going to need to rest… and like her mama, she is not inclined towards rest often. She is a busy bee with multiple things that she is wanting to do at any given moment.
We are just about to go out to get her covid test… and I am worried.
So I am probably not going to be posting this week due to this. I will be back next week, and I am going to try to be more active. thank you for understanding.
🌟☕️ANNOUNCEMENT:☕️🌟 Coffee House Writers is publishing not one but TWO anthologies this winter!! Mark your calendars for November 10th to see both covers and find out more!!
I do not know which volume my Poems will be included in…But there are four. 🦄🐉
Lyrics She was 19 with a baby on the way On the East-side of the city, she was working every day Cleaning dishes in the evening, she could barely stay awake She was clinging to the feeling that her luck was gonna change And, ‘cross town she would take the bus at night To a one bedroom apartment, and when she’d turn on the light She would sit down at the table, tell herself that it’s alright She was waiting on the day she hoped her baby would arrive She’d never be alone Have someone to hold And when nights were cold She’d say The world’s not perfect, but it’s not that bad If we got each other, and that’s all we have I will be your mother, and I’ll hold your hand You should know I’ll be there for you When the world’s not perfect When the world’s not kind If we have each other then we’ll both be fine I will be your mother, and I’ll hold your hand You should know I’ll be there for you They were 90 and were living out their days On the West-side of the city next to where they got engaged They had pictures on the walls of all the memories that they’d made And though life was never easy, they were thankful that they stayed With each other, and though some times were hard Even when she made him angry he would never break her heart No, they didn’t have the money to afford a fancy car But they never had to travel ’cause they’d never be apart Even at the end Their love was stronger than The day that they first met They’d say The world’s not perfect, but it’s not that bad If we got each other, and that’s all we have I will be your lover, and I’ll hold your hand You should know I’ll be there for you When the world’s not perfect When the world’s not kind If we have each other then we’ll both be fine I will be your lover, and I’ll hold your hand You should know I’ll be there for you You should know I’ll be there for you I’m 23, and my folks are getting old I know they don’t have forever and I’m scared to be alone So I’m thankful for my sister, even though sometimes we fight When high school wasn’t easy, she’s the reason I survived I know she’d never leave me and I hate to see her cry So I wrote this verse to tell her that I’m always by her side I wrote this verse to tell her that I’m always by her side I wrote this verse to tell her that The world’s not perfect, but it’s not that bad If we got each other, and that’s all we have I will be your brother, and I’ll hold your hand You should know I’ll be there for you When the world’s not perfect When the world’s not kind If we have each other then we’ll both be fine I will be your brother, and I’ll hold your hand You should know I’ll be there for you You should know I’ll be there for you
My 2 cents so much has gone on this year and I needed some happy with the music. so I chose upbeat and happy survival music. rock on.
This year has been an incredibly difficult one. I have been working on writing this volume for most of this year. I finally finished with the writing and I have limited time right now to get it presentable. I had hoped to do it in November. However so that I have time for to make it shine… I think that I am going to do a December first release. I am always working on the next volume… so I thought that I would reveal the cover of the next one.
Look Forward to links and Information on Song of Shadow, For that is upcoming.
What is Nightmare Whispers? It is 3 volumes of short horror stories and dark poetry. It is the collected fears and darkness that lingers just out of the light. Why is there three volumes? Well that’s because we recieved more quality stories than we had room for in a single volume. It was admittedly us […]
