My new book Battle-Scarred Heart is is production among the tales are 2 that may warn of the perils of internet dating, due to a recent experience My Muse decided to comment, full details of this experience will be in a future book, for the meantime...

April 23 2008...4:35 in the p.m. Laredo TX The perils of Internet Dating Are many and varied too You never know who you're 'speaking' with You only know of you Words that come in an email The truth can be so scarce And with a few emoticons You're floating in mid air It may not be just who you thought Anonymous words on a screen Can tell you just about anything For you to believe in your dream Even if they send pictures How can you know it's them? It seems a case for me again To investigate Zen! I still don't know what Zen is I guess I never will Beware of words on the Internet They can really sap your will! And even with some nagging doubts You still want to believe At least until a certain point Is reached then you're deceived! Well actually you weren't deceived You knew it all along At least you thought you knew you did And that's what breaks the song! The tune that was harmonious Has seemed to change it's key Instead of harmonic convergence It's in the key of Screech! But yet you wanted to believe And may I warn you buddy You'll really never know who it was Who finally asked you for money! New Book in production: Battle-Scarred Heart - A Brit's Witty Look At Lost Love http://starburst689.fortunecity.com video for my new book http://publishedauthors.ning.com/profile/Rainbow

You are probably aware of MSN Groups hosted by Microsoft. They used to allow Chat Rooms on their Groups. MSN no longer allows Chat Rooms on the Groups, because of issues involving harassment and predators. Most of the communications were good and uplifting, but predators spoiled it for everyone. I work as a volunteer with HaltAbuse.org. We work to knock down the harassers and predators. It is a shame that there is a need for us.

Good one, Rainbow! Write on!

Interesting, yet so very truthful. Beware of all those attached in the dating games, for honesty is difficult to come by. Wonderfully stated complete with inner emotions...

Be always safe,
Karen
