Hello everyone!
My name is Lisa Mae. It is my honor to join such a wonderful community of fellow writers. I look forward to cultivating an excellent relationship with other creative minds. I have just finished my first book in the hopes that it will be published soon. I will post a few chapters on here to gain feedback and insight. It is a memoir I have written to create awareness and inspiration. I will be happy to expound on that on an individual basis. I am also working on another book which I hope to have finished in the next several months. I look forward to reading your work! Most importantly, I value your feedback and welcome perspective and advice.
Thank you for taking the time to stop by!
Have a fabulous week!
Sincer…

Shattered As I was approaching adolescence, and growing into my personality, the situation at home was becoming more hostile everyday. I was grateful for the escape provided by going to school, as well as, the opportunities to hang out with Gladys, so that I did not have to spend time at home. I hated being there and welcomed any excuse to leave. My evenings were still consumed by my nightly watches, and I spent many sleepless nights devoted to my ‘protection program.’ Nothing was going to ch...

We kept that part of our family behind closed doors. This was top-secret information and no one was allowed to reveal it – not that we would have at the time. My siblings and I had taken...

The Secret I remember the very day the veil of delusion was lifted from my eyes. I had become comfortable being surrounded by the safe environment my parents had created for me and my siblings. We lived in a world filled with all the beauty and wonder of deception. It was a place where self-denial was practiced as if it were a religion, and masks were donned in lieu of human faces. Besides coming from an interracial family, I had no idea that the world in which I lived in was anything other ...

Yes, it is very interesting when you put the two together, and that you thought of putting them together is interesting too! I really liked how the two mesh, especially when you talked of 'images of life you didn't really feel' -- then moving on to 'under this false pretense of hope' which mirror each other. "And the butterflies dance, trying to bring you home, and you laugh a short quiet laugh...' As if he responded at that moment to your plea for him to return. The tone of the both of the p...
I am not sure where you were trying to go with the 'ranting' entry, posted in a short story catagory. It read more like a wandering thought. If you wanted to make it 'readable' you may start by cleaning up the first sentence: Go clean your roomâ my father said. My mom and brothers and sisters said it too. Instead, you may want to write: "Go clean your room," said my father who reiterated what my mother and siblings have told me countless times... Or, something along those lines. It needs a bi...
