Dreams

We all have dreams.

Something we strive for.

I dreamed of writing a book and becoming as popular as Stephen King.

Then J.K. Rowling wrote Harry Potter.

I figured if she could do it, why not me?

More people need to follow their dreams, not let Reality interfere. Life is already hard enough without losing our dreams to harsh reality.

I finally realized at least part of my dream--publishing a book--in 2015. It didn't take off, but did gained a few followers. The following three books were all in the same series. There are four more books in this serial.

I'm putting out another book in the Voice realm. I have three in my head so far for this series.

I still dream of writing that one book that will fling me into stardom, but I realize that may never happen. But I may still earn a living from my books by sheer volume of books.  I've been told that sometime an author doesn't make it until they have out a lot of books, put their name out there.

One way or another I'm determined to get my name out there and recognized. I will be famous even if it takes me until I'm hundred. Dreams should never be given up on.

Holiday season


The Santa Clause and the first Die Hard are old standbys. It's not Christmas until I see these two movies.

I can recite certain parts of Die Hard from memory and just hearing certain parts of Santa Clause, I can tell what's happening on screen  with my eyes closed.

I had them for years then I got rid of a lot of my DVDs. I kept only my Gamera movies because they were hard to find.

I plan to buy back these two movies. As I said, it's not Christmas without them. The snappy one-liners and inside jokes keep you entertained and smiling.

I don't have a tree nor do I really decorate. I take pictures of my cat with Christmas items and put them on FB, but I only hang a wreath on my door.I give cards and set the cards I receive on a cabinet door, but no tree or garland   Christmas is more a feeling than a physical thing to me. Don't need a tree or physical things to promote the feeling of giving.


Side note:

Who or what is Gamera, you ask?

Why he's a giant flying turtle!   :)


My friend Travis likes Godzilla, I like Gamera. Of course, like is a relative word. We are more obsessed. Him more than me.
