I just finished writing another small book that is based on the Bible and a few kings of old. It also is about a concubine of the one king. This book is fiction partially and is "X" rated, because I am trying to reach the unchurched and those that do not believe in the Lord.
Right now is the part I do not like about writing, I have to check my where's and wheir's and there and their and to and too's and my grammer. YUK--never was good at English 101. If my old English teacher new I was writing she would probably do an Irish Jig on top of her coffin.
Then the fun, do I find a publisher through my agent or do I try myself, which is a big question. Of course how much money am I willing to spend as it seems I end up spending money one way or another.
Have two published and one with an agent trying to get another one published, I may have to re-write that one as I did write it too fast and I used a different style of writing going with a play manuscript style and that may be my problem. But I wrote it as a book not a play.
Well this week I cooked something that I think most of the people like, just plain old spaghetti and meatballs, and I had some stripes of chicken in the freezer so I stir fried them and added mixed vegtables with noodles and stir fried all together and will have some Zataran original rice with it, just to liven up the dish a little. Some people do not like the next item, but I do. I took some chipped beef and tore it up into small pieces and made a cream gravy and cooked it together and will put it over either toast or mashed potatoes along with some green beans on the side. The other sides will be sliced tomatoes and cottage cheese with peach slices. And of course garlic french bread. Did I make you hungery. I must have to much time on my hands.
Well, I have done a little research on another book based on the Bible, but before I start on it I best do more research to make sure of what I am going to write. NO, this one will not be x rated. Two is enough. I have this one I will write and then if the good Lord keeps me here for a while longer I want to try my hand writing one for young children going into their teenage years, like ten through fourteen. Unless something happens that I will have no control over.
Have a good day and enjoy it, for tomorow may never come.

I did come back, are you happy?
I experimented with a couple of new receipe's I found and then changed slightly. I made a shepard's pie and a pot pie combination and it tasted really great. Try this you may like it---
Line a pie plate with a pie crust and bake.
Fry 1/2 lb. ground pork and 1/2 lb. good hamburger
Add chopped onion and pepper while frying and near the end add green beans, carrots, diced tomatoes and some tomatoe sauce.
Transfer to dish with pie crust, top with mashed potatoes, bake at 350 degress for 50 min. or until potatoes start turning brown.
Top with shredded fat free chedar cheese.--serve.
The other receipe; slice two small onions and put in a fry pan with olive oil, about two tablespoons. Then add two cloves of garlic (or less). then add two teaspoons of dryed red pepper (crushed), continue frying tell onions are clear. Transfer to a plate. Add two tablespoons of olive oil to fry pan and fry four chicken thighs until browned all around. Transfer what you put on the plate on top of the chicken.
Add about 1/3 of a cup of raisans, some sliced olives with pimento (one, to two tablespoons full) and a cup and a half of white cooking wine.
Cover and cook about 45 minutes or until chicken is really tender---serve.
I have not done anything on my book I am writing as I sort of have writers block. I decided I was getting away from the main story line so I deleated a bunch of it and now have to decide which way I want to go again.
I am not worried as this is more of a hobby for me than being a great writer.
The one publisher I have keeps changing the way they produce their books and the price, so I am going to sit back and see what they will come up with later. I like the cheaper price but I do not know what the book will be like, so I am going to wait before I spend any more money with them.
Well the Fourth of July is over and I hope all of you enjoyed it. The only problem I saw was at our church we had maybe 1/2 the congregation we normally have. I wonder how many other churches had the same. We seem to be more interested in our enjoyment than being interested in God and his only begotten son Jesus Christ.
Anyway, enjoy the month and may God be with you always.
