In search of...
Hi everyone. I am very new to all of this, though I have been writing for a while. My writings are little pieces of this and that. I have a particular area/topic of writing... When asked what I write about the most; I usually respond "The Mood." And that can be anything. Family, romance, intimacy, fear... What ever sparks me inside, flames my pen. My main goal for signing up is to find out the steps/course other "artists" take to reach their writing goal. We, my writings and I, are still in a box, uncertain of how to get out. I'm 3o+ looking for something new, exciting & fun!

Greetings Shonda and welcome to the community.
Glad to see you are writing often - that's what writers do. You can write about whatever your heart desires - just write.

Stay tuned to the site, there will be a few beginning courses coming up in the fall.

Hello Shonda,
Be committed. If writing is your passion make it fun. I love writing.
My first book was very poignant. To me it was not what I would have wanted to write about.
Since I was forced, to write about surviving after the death of my son, I had to do the best I could in the situation I was forced in.

I understand your fear, but you have to let it go. It's amazing the feed back you get from others writers and the growth you will experince It's a great network. Just proof read, but we are not perfect so just do your best.

thank you for the add and may all those moments be filled with the passion of your heart if you are sharing it, then it shall be......

one of a kind

I wait for passion to take hold of me,
every moment, anticipation
wanting, longing
as my love calls
the scent of the moment moves me,
temptation becomes my desire
and, my emotions lead me to your heart
as a tender caress is all I long for
the touch of your body
brings the fire,
a sweet kiss upon your lips
and I have become a slave to your love,
I want you at the very edge
where your pleasure passionately burns deep
as I take this moment
let the whispers of our love be
the sounds we dance to
when my love becomes, the moments you wait for
when your heart beats with a hunger,
know that I am one of a kind

Welcome! Please join the Black love poetry group. Look forward to reading your work here.

SPAM IS SO NOT COOL!

Please do not greet everyone on the site with large images and announcements of your book or business. Yes, you want to tell the world, but learn the fine art of subtlety. A simple welcome and signature/link is fine. Let them ask you for more.
We have lost numerous members because of the amount of 'friend' mail they instantly receive. This Hurts Everyone.
Spam is unsolicited advertising, whether it is posted as comments on other members' pages or is emailed for marketing purposes.

Please be considerate. Post your advertisement in the proper Articles/Forum or Group. There are free classifieds on the Pages tab. You can post your information on your profile and even update your blog as often as you like.

We are not into censorship, so please don't make us ask you to leave. Be kind and unselfish - don't spam.
SPAMMING IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED
