Blissed Out!

I am so happy you found yourself here – how ever it is that you got here – WELCOME!

For a writer, it is more than blissful to have readers! So basic, so simple, and yet without you the reader – my life as a writer has a big missing. And you are a certain kind of reader. Of course, my sisters and even one of my brothers have read my scribblings and have blessed me with their praise. But you know – don’t they have to?

You on the other hand are here by your own choice and I am well aware that your time is valuable. Not just in monetary terms but in granting me your time you are giving me a bit of your life and I am grateful.

People often ask where I get my ideas. My head is so full of ideas that it’s sometimes hard to pull the source of an idea out to check where it came from. But I will do my best to have you see where my story came from. For this series The Bliss House series, the building above definitely got my juices flowing.
