Within the last month my main goal and dream has been to complete and publish a book I am in the process of weaving and writting. It has a balance of fiction and history to please both audiences of fictional lovers and historical lovers. I have no possible clue when I will get it finished I have part of the begining written. So far I am still doing reaserch of the Gold Rush in California and time through the 20th century. It has been so far a fun time learning things I didnt remember or had forgotten.Another thing that will make this book stand out from others is there is no supernatural or romanic focuses. Its all focused on family,discovery,and heritage. What im really hoping to get out of this book is not being a best seller or anything on that level. I want to have the "I did it!" feeling. Being able to see my book on a book shelf seeing my pen name ___ Newhouse (I have no clue what my begining part will be lol) on a book will feel great!
Another thing id love is to give people something to enjoy. My writing is somthing I love to share with others. Its my joy,I feel that our personal joy should be shared with others whether it being art,music,singing,dance,cooking,Knowlege,ect. We all have something of our enjoyment that we take pride in. For me its my talent in writing and creativity to weave a good story.
I do not want to give too much a way of my book but it being focused on history of the gold rush is where this womans family history that is known of begins. Her family home and old quilt is the tie of her family history and heritage. Being said all that it takes you back to that era and specific place an important part of her families history took place.

My love for writing started at a very young age. I was 10 when I wrote my first little book series I made out of blank paper that folded in half to make a book. My first little series was called Karen Sherlock,haha I was qite a little copy cat huh? It wasnt inspired by Sherlock Holmes! I loved the Nancy Drew series after reading a book of that series I was hooked! Karen Sherlock was a detective who solved crimes. I remember my first Karen Sherlock story was about a missing Canary. The book cover I made had her and the missing Yellow Canary in a bird cage. I had so much fun writing those,I would spend hours at the table drawing and writing those little books. I wasnt the best at my grammar,or spelling (still a bit off at times) but I had fun. Even now im a 20 year old woman and I have note books and note books full of stories and writing ideas I have. I have been working on a fiction/fantasy book for children since I was 16,not too much has changed,I kept the uncles name the same but two of the childrens names had changed into much better names. I keep getting stuck on the plot but I do find my self back to those notes adding more and more to each chapter and to the story its self. I know personally that it will take a long time before I even get close to finished on that peice but writing is based on time and most important YOU,as we grow,mature,and learn our writing tends to change. Even within at time period of our lives one may be at a dark state and write a great peice but its very dark. One may be going through a spirtual journey and write a spiritual based book that is uplifting and positive. Writing is an expression of who you are and how your feeling. Alot of people dont tend to realise or think about writing as an open diary of the Author. Its their own thoughts and feelings being woven into a story. Do you really think these writers pull these things out of their ass? No,its their expression of how they are feeling and thinking. Yes you may read "she slowly turned the door knob and as she opened the door the henges creeked." ok no thats not a feeling but the story line is. Perhaps the story is about a man starting over sober and begining a new life. Who knows that Author has been in that situaton or is in it but writing it in a characters point of veiw. One could write of a relationship and who knows that Author had been in the same type or is finding love again or for the first time and wants to express their joy for it.
Even writing does not have to be of a feeling it could be of the authors interests and fascinations.Writing is a very amazing art and self expression tool. Not only does it take me away but its my outlet from the real world.Its just nice to slip into the mind of

different person and visualise a new environment.
Being a published Author is a huge dream and goal for me. Its not my main focus but its somthing I am not letting go of. Yes there is going to be times I put my peice on the back burner but doesnt mean I can come back and stir things up. I dont have high hopes of being the next Dan Brown,JK Rowling,Jane Austin,ect. I just want to be a published author whos work has been shared with the world and being read by others. "A favorite of mine is to curl up with a notebook and hot cup of hot coco"
I have to say my favortie Authors would have to be Holly Black,Toni Dizerelli,JK Rowling,Sylvia Cassedy,Shel Silverstine, and Lemony Snicket. My favorite book is "Behind the Attic Wall" by Sylvia Cassedy. My favorite Childrens poetry Authors is Shel Silverstine, and my favorite childrens book
"I love to write on a rainy autumn or winter day its the best and most magical time for writing to me"
