Such small things mean the world to me when I doubt myself. Even if my books won't be liked by everyone, I start believing in myself again, and I chase my writing dreams one step at a time. Word by word, chapter by chapter, book by book.
The most recent of which is being featured in a book box - a dream I've been chasing for a while without getting much traction, but now it is finally becoming a reality.Don't ever give up on your dreams, even when it seems like it's pointless. Believe me, I know the feeling. But don't give up! Good things will come if you fight for them. Trust your instincts and believe in your worth.
Wo die Grenzen von Platt und Hochdeutsch verschwimmen und das Tabakpech so manchen Traum zu Grunde gehen lässt.

"Mr. Tippy-Tappy"
Once, a nice woman in New Orleans fed a beautiful Blue Jay yummy peanuts. But then, she moved away. The Blue Jay started to tap loudly on all the windows in the neighborhood. What's next?
According to a new NPR/Ipsos poll, a "whopping 98% of respondents...want their children to develop a love of reading."
Yet, only 51% read a book in the past month but 80% watched videos.
Are we dumbing down?

If you care for a #fantasy read, maybe Tindaya is for you.
It's "A story of Gods and Goats" as the subtitle says.
A couple decides to visit a Spanish-speaking place in the world. The throw of an arrow takes them to the Canary Islands.
During their stay on the island of Fuerteventura, they meet many locals, including some they didn't even know existed!

On side note, article lists a few deities of possible interest, including Santa Muerte, with who I've done a little work. For me, La Flaquita is impartial and delivers.
Also, author of article is author of the book 'The Evil Eye' which I read and reviewed.

Yesterday (April 6) was National Library Day to remind us of the vital role these institutions play in our society! Much of what we've learned about commedia dell'arte and countless other topics as well as joyful reading for fun has been made possible do to robust community libraries!
If you love libraries as much as we do, perhaps take a moment today to remind your elected officials how important they are to all of us.
"A library outranks any other one thing a community can do to benefit its people. It is a never failing spring in the desert." --Andrew Carnegie
This will be my last free story for a while, so don't miss it! April 7-11
Also, a reminder that the Kindle edition of "8" will be 70% off for 72 hours this weekend, so don't miss that either! 
Have been whizzing through books this past week! Now about to dive into The Collected Short Stories of Virginia Woolf. If the stories are anywhere near as good as the font is massive (and it's startlingly massive), I'm in for a treat. 
"A dangerous book will always be in danger from those it threatens with the demand that they question their assumptions. They’d rather hang on to the assumptions and ban the book". - Ursula K. Le Guin
