Background
Information

|
One day I stopped writing, and looked around me, observing around 5,000 poems. I began to catagorize them and had 15 books already written. I decided to become my own editor, which I have been doing for a couple years now. I find that to be the most difficult part. What goes where, etc. I chose a publisher, and a year later noticed I was spending way too much money, then began to do everything myself. Gosh, I am tired, but I have the achievement of having almost everything in collections, (Just in case I might die) I am in the process of arranging my Historical writes at this time. I look forward to completing the collections I have as I miss the creative, writing process. In the meantime, I am no good at selling or promoting myself or my books; that is where I am.
