Sometimes selling books is discouraging

 Sometimes I get discouraged because my books don't sell very well. I just want people to read them. Even though not many have bought them I continue to write because I love writing.  Writing is a way for me to cope. Sometimes it is a way for me to escape reality. It has gotten me through a lot of rough times.  When people buy or read them it makes me happy. It is okay if they don't like it because I know there are people who will love or like them. I keep promoting on different platforms and interact with people to try to get the word out about my books. I am not giving up on my dreams and goals.

We should celebrate the lives of those we lose

 When we lose someone it's like a nightmare we can't wake from. Some will tell us they know how we feel and they truly don't know how we feel because they aren't us. They can only have an understanding of it. We all cope and handle it differently. Not one person handles it or goes through the same motions at the same time and it can cause people to butt heads. There are days you just want to be numb and feel nothing. Days you don't want to get out of bed. Sometimes eat your feelings or self medicate. Days that you just want to blow up and it doesn't take much. The days where you want to cry and wonder will the tears ever stop. People say it gets easier and it doesn't really. You learn to cope. Telling stories of the ones we lose is what keeps them alive. It is about the stories and pictures. Sometimes we feel like we are going to forget them so we do everything in our power to keep their memories alive. Some of us light a candle in memory of them. Others cel...

Christmas at the Ranch that won’t be Forgotten

  Chapter1   It's a few weeks before Christmas and I am getting ready for the last-minute details before Christmas gets here. My mom keeps asking if I have a date for the Christmas party and I don't have one yet. All I do is keep busy with my 2 kids and work. I have my own Ranch in a small town in Colorado and I run it. I have a teenage son and daughter. My son is 16 and my daughter is 17. We live in a Ranch house. I raise cows, chickens, sheep, pigs, goats, and do gardening.  I also have lots of horses. My husband and I divorced when the kids were 5 and 6 years old. He didn't care for ranching life, and he had been cheating on me for most of our marriage with his secretary at his law firm.  We were only married 7 years. He barely has anything to do with our kids. I have dated on and off over the years, but nothing ever worked out. Lately my mom has been trying to play match maker and I constantly tell her no. She's tried setting me up with men at her church, tol...
