There is so much more information about Nowruz that I'd like to share...
and maybe someday I will write a book about it.

This morning, I came across a fascinating piece that I'd like to share with you.

Enjoy!

Update

I wrote several pieces in January and several more in February, but I never edited or posted them because I was busy with other projects. I'm simply behind on my blogging. I'll start editing my pieces and posting them in the next few days, in the order they were written, backdating each to its original date.

Gratitude Journey - Volume Two

Chris Palmore invites you all to share a gratitude story as we are collecting pieces for the second volume of his anthology Gratitude Journey, an annual publication.

Gender

Writers who use #PenNames and all #Writers of #fiction... and even nonfiction: 
Check out the #book Gender in Fiction: A Collaborative Exploration, a small collection of perspectives on gender, not only the gender of characters but also that of #authors and the name(s) they use.

Book Review: Imagine That

Imagine That: The Magic of the Mysterious Lights, by George Yuhasz, is a book for children. What Evelyn discovers at a young age is something most adults don't learn until much later in life. I recommend this wonderful little book on the power of thoughts and dreams to all children and adults who have anything to do with kids.

#BookReview: The Lloyd Haynes Story

The Lloyd Haynes Story by Carolyn Haynes is an extraordinary memoir!
Carolyn's life as she knows it ends the night she meets a handsome bra salesman – only she still has a lot to discover about him. The strength of her love in this fascinating love story becomes evident in the brilliant way she puts together notes, anecdotes, articles, photos, and stories to weave a beautiful tapestry of this truly remarkable man's life. FIVE STARS!
