I've written the book and even made a front cover (which can be seen on my new website), and now I've just launched my new website to help get support for my new book.
To show your support, Im not asking for money but just sign my guestbook or take a little look around the site. Also, if you're a writer, then you can send in a poem (post here or on there) and if it's good enough I'll add it to the showcase.

Thank you so much to those who have already helped me so much!
I wrote this for a marapet writing contest. What do you think?
Darkness
My lips as the line Not one smile has kissed By I've licked the blade The taste of salt not iron
No more ups and downs Like the edge of a saw Each new life line slashed and I can't breath no more
Is it your jealousy I stir? No need for anguish The light does not want me Of that, I am sure See these wings? They were meant for darkness
And with the happiness My cold soul static It's throat exposed Waiting Vunerable and shallow And I am on edge
I know The silent agony of love And I breathe The cold exhale as broken And now i ask- Is it not enough that my tears run scarlet? Passionate Lust your mistress could not comprehend Which I 'choose' not to end
So here I am in the path of darkness, Already lost by the time you read this.
Ok so, for most of us, it's not going to happen. Or it will, but it will flop.
That does not mean we'll give up - right? So who here is going to write a book and get it published? And even more, who here wants to be on the buyers list?
So post here if you are tying to get published, and then when one of us doesm everyone here will get a mm about it, because I'm sure you'll want people to know. And who knows, maybe you'll get a best seller one day
____________ Just a bit about me, I've already written a book and sent it off to pulishers when I was 14. It got good feedback but did not make the final list. I wrote another, and that book was so much better than the first.
Now I'm on my third and ready to see about publishing. The sequal is already developing in my mind, but well, first things first. Let's see how it goes.
