The novel-The Shattered Vase
I finally approved the final proof of my novel, The Shattered Vase. I had submitted the manuscript in June and had hired a proofreader to go through it. However, it took four more months of grueling proofreading before I considered it good enough to release. My...
THE FACADE OF FACEBOOK
It took me a long time to befriend Facebook. Once I did it became a casual friend, not a close confidant. I connect with it mainly to see events which I may be interested in attending. I get a bit irritated sometimes with people who constantly post selfies on...
