I'm a daughter, a sister, a mother, and a grandmother. Happily divorced, single to stay. But I'm here to say, one can survive heartbreak. It's not easy, extremely painful, but doable. In any case, life goes on. Oh, so often I've fantasized in my life about the many things I've wanted to do. While I may not get them all done, being a writer, I give them to my characters to do, and - hey... it is as good as done.
My world is at Amber Swann the place I hope to bring as a well-known publishing firm of quality IR literature. Yes, publishing is a major dream of mine, the one I'm working the hardest on. In my setting that up, I have completed quite a bit of writing to jump-start my experience in that. A trilogy under my belt, another one completed Aphrodisiac, I'm happy to say is now available as well. That's not all, I also have an ongoing, drama series called, The Beauty Of Man and Woman, better known by my readers as, Bomaw - you'll find them all at Amazon.com. Try the link if you wish to drop in there for a read.
So as you can see, I'm certainly working on making things happen.
Now, a bit about me...
BIO
Born in the USA. Greenville, Mississippi, then my life was in Chicago, Ill. Lived in Killeen, Texas for a few years, and then back to Chicago, and next Wisconsin for 12 or more years... and now, finally, my home is ??? stay tuned! I work at home now, and continue to build on that above dream! And if I play my cards right, perhaps one day, I'll find myself with a #1 best-seller! Time will tell!
Last but not least... I am working on Bomaw Volume 13 - which will be followed up by Saoirse - a historical surrounding the slavery of the Irish, Scot, and Yorkshiremen.
Stay tuned....

YES. Thank you for this. You certainly nailed it. I assume you've read Howard Zinn's "A People's History of the United States"? Excellent image and powerful statement. Keep fighting the good fight.

Mercy, first of all let me compliment you on creating such a powerful and moving work of art. This is one of those images that leaves you breathless and causes one to pause and consider all the ramifications of your words. It truly is a stunning image that brilliantly depicts their struggle Against the elite who only have power when everyone is divided

I also recommend Zinn's "The History of American Empire." I used the graphic novel version for a class once because I knew the students wouldn't read the print version, and the stories of Colonialism, class warfare, and racial elitism shocked them all. Well done, M'am!

Nice message! For those who would be interested in learning the real history that we missed in school they should check out The Ultimate History Lesson with John Taylor Gatto on YouTube. You should also check out The Peace Revolution podcast and TragedyandHope.com. Peace!

Powerful image....you know..i ever considered myself an Universe´s citizen beyond racial ideas....we are God´s creatures ,no one superior to another one. Someday...more soon than some people think, all will come back to the right way and all the world will be one only mind in union with the true God.

This is exactly what Karl Marx was trying to point out. It's never been about black vs. white...its about those with the most gold vs. all the rest of us. Excellent commentary!
