Long gone.

Why do moments have to turn into memories? Of you, that's all I have.

I wanted to keep the reality of you, of me, of us. The reality of how it used to be.

Time passes, there's so much we need to do and not enough...  time.

I thought I could fix the broken soul but I couldn't because according to you, I'm consumed by other things that keep me away.

Think you're an option? As if that was  a bad thing.  Bad is not even be that.  Bad is being just a shadow, and you're not... I am.

Chain Blog

I'm so grateful to have been invited to add another link to this "chain blog".
I received the invitation from the super ingenious,  Mr. James Kafka.  

You can find all kinds of information about Mr. James Kafka, his book WARFOLKAN (which I already read and totally recommend) and many other things he likes and dislike. All that is in his blog.

Also I would love to give a big welcome to F.B. Jefferson. He is an aspiring author who loves to learn anything and everything.

And here are the answers we got from F.B Jefferson.

What am I working on?

I'm currently in the process of writing four poems, three short stories and I'm mentally steeping over what will hopefully be my first novel.

How does my work differ from others in its genre?
 
I would like to say it's unique, but the truth is I have no idea. From what I can only guess, it's a lot of science-fiction/cyberpunk with a dash of out of the box thinking. I have ideas of a utopia and a very dark sense of humor, not to mention I like the macabre and obscure.

Why do I write what I do?

I had an accident that landed me in the wheelchair, now I can't help but see our dystopia.

How does my writing process work?

When I focus on poetry, I pick a meter and make myself a sentence. I then try and convey something by finding a rhyme scheme. Dictionaries make this quite easy. As for the stories I have a bad habit of mixing the snowflake method with premature editing. I hope to bypass that for my first work.

Visit F.B.Jefferson on Twitter and find out more about what he is all about

We should meet some more talented authors next Monday when F.B. Jefferson forwards the opportunity to someone else.

And another great writer and good friend of mine, J.D. Estrada.

J. D. Estrada was born, bred and raised in Puerto Rico. Throughout his life, he’s often been fascinated by connecting with other people and that human aspect of our relationships. As a kid, he dreamt of inventing stuff... he just never knew he’d end up doing it using words.

He feels most at home sliding on a wave on his bodyboard, strumming his guitar, reading a fascinating book and writing. Married, the youngest of three brothers and a devoted son, he has a passion to write, and he’s just getting started.

His book Only Human is available on Amazon 

It is a very entertaining and interesting story not just about vampires but also about an Only Human. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a well written story. I read it, you should too!

You can also connect with him on Twitter
Where you will be able to enjoy good tweets

And on G+

Where you will find all sorts of great poetry and comments, and short stories. You won't be disappointed.

Finally a little bit about me. (Talking on 3rd person because.. why not?)

Verónica Brannon loves to read and write contemporary romance. She loves the happily ever after end in a story and wishes that would also apply to the real world, but knows that the real world is not a fairy tale.

Her first book is Tied up Heart and it's available on Kindle.

She's fairly new to the writing world but enjoys every aspect of it. She speaks Spanish and English, and is in the process of translating her novel into Spanish.  She's originally from the west coast of México but resides in Tennessee since 1996. She is married and has one daughter.

I hope you guys connect with these awesome people, you will have a great time getting to know them. Stop by to say hi!!

Fun in the sun.

Your paradise is my reality. That's what a store clerk told me that weekend.

I spent four days by the beach, paradise to me and simple reality to the people living there.  I gave much thought to that.

It's dark,  and all I hear are the frogs croaking in the background, in the emptiness of the night.

I'm sitting alone contemplative the fire wood creep and crackle as it burns down in front of me.

Is like music you can't write because there's no way to describe what you hear out here in the wilderness.

Beauty you can't see but you feel.

Beauty you can't touch but you breathe.

Beauty all around, surrounds you.

Surround me with your arms, come live in my empty world, and it'll be empty no more.

Back again.

I have been absent from here, the reason? No reason at all. just thought I let my mind unwind and relax.
I felt I needed to just shut up for a moment, well, at least the voices in my head.
I've been absent but not missing,
I've been gone but not lost,
I've been here and there, all around... now I'm back.
Space was needed and much enjoyed, colliding worlds rebuilt.
That's how's done.  You leave and come back because the words call you to return, you can't get away.
Things changed but remained the same. How strange is that?
So in the end... we meet again!
