“I don’t understand why my step-brother, Shaun, hit me. I just…” I trailed off. I couldn’t explain how much I was at a loss for words with my therapist. This is one of the recent conversations I had with her. The explanation has stayed with me. I can’t get it out of my head. Passive, […]

The Blurb for “Broken”
Here is it dearest readers! The official blurb for Broken! “Who are you?” For the first time in twenty years, I didn’t know. My reply was to write “Broken.” When a young journalist, William D. Shaw, seeks out Elizabeth, an acclaimed author, in hopes to write her biography, the recluse grants him twenty four […]

Nightmares
I’m recording my nightmares again. I started having nightmares when I was around eight. By the time I was twelve, I began keeping a dream journal. 9 July 2015 (Seriously…I am using this dream in a fantasy book!) Part 1 – I had to babysit this group of ethnic children. It was late, about 11:00 […]
Quoting Broken
I’m reading through Broken… “You don’t chop the genitalia off a Michelangelo. You don’t burn a Rembrandt. You don’t cut the words out of Dickens, Dumas, or Hugo. Needless to say, I refuse to read abridged classics.” I can’t believe I wrote that and am now publishing that! LMAO Here’s another more serious tone… […]

Just want to talk…
Hello you. I’ve missed our chats. I just finished painting the hall. It’s 9:09 P.M. I had a sudden case of “must paint the walls.” I hate this stage. This is the “I feel I have no control over my fate, my self, or my existence. I know! I will paint the walls. This way […]
Excerpt from “Broken”
Excerpt I took to staying up as late into the night as I could to avoid the nightmares and the Death Men. I hated sleep. I couldn’t eat without remembering how selfish I was…how unwanted I was. I learned to take very little. I learned to want nothing more. I learned something else during those […]
“Broken” Review
Review for “Broken.” Poignant and brutally honest, Broken grasped me and didn’t let me go from the very first page. To read someone’s life story is usually a very personal and intimate affair. With Broken, I experienced everything through Angela’s gripping and at times heart wrenching story telling. She doesn’t let any stone of […]
