It sure is nice to meet all of you and I thank you for your very kind comments. I have been very busy lately editing a manuscript sent by another writer and I'm happy to say that I just finished it last night. I have two other projects I need to get started on, plus I'm still trying to complete my own manuscript, which will hopefully result in my sixth book.

Blood Vengeance: (Cold Case #4-183) Not of this World is a paranormal murder mystery/thriller that I've been working on with a screenwriter in the United State. I'm in Canada. I'm very excited about this work, as I've really learned a lot about creative writing through my co-writer. As a former journalist, I am much more capable of writing the facts than I am at getting into fancier more indepth writing. As I said, I learned a lot and am still learning as I go along.

I just came across an article recently that mentioned Alzheimer's and how we must try to keep the mind active as we get older. I think writing (and reading) are wonderful ways to do just that. Though I'm only 58, I think it is never too soon to get into and stay in the habit of stretching my mental muscles. The article mentioned that crosswords help a lot too and I do enjoy those.

So keep reading, writing and learning, and your mind should remain lucid for many years to come.

Wow
Nice to meet you. I am a struggling Author and my biggest downfall is time to write. I have a full household and busy. I don't get the ME time I would like. But I do write lately though it is not a lot. I need to get out of the rut I fell into about last June.

Hi Martha,

I haven't been on the site much recently. I'm pleased to see you have joined us. I think Ricky is doing a great thing here. And I'm sure I could learn a lot from you to improve my own writing. Welcome.

Tell Us A Little About Yourself
Hi All!

I am a former journalist, still an editor and five-time author. One of my primary goals in life is to help other authors and to this end, I have written an ebook entitled: How To Become An Established Author.

This ebook is full of tips and tricks to propel you forward in your writing career. It begins with the basics of writing, book genre writing styles, finding an appropriate publisher, writing query letters and proposals, and finding an agent all the way through to marketing and advertising at little or no cost. The latter is vital to your success as an author, as simply getting published will not bring the results you hope to achieve.

What are your creative outlets and/or aspirations?
Most likely, I will be remembered first as a loving mother and grandmother. After that, hopefully I will be remembered as a fine journalist and author.
What or Who are your greatest inspirations?
My adopted mother had the most monumental effect on me as a most loving soul, with great strength and always a laugh to share despite being stricken with cancer.

About

Ricky  J. Fico Ricky J. Fico created this Ning Network.

Monumental Lives For Monumental Change: ....Join Us!

We Making The Difference!" The Steps Toward A Better World Begin With The Steps Taken To Better Oneself! "A foundation is but the base and it is the collection of building blocks that creates what many should strive to ascend."


Living a monumental life doesn't necessarily mean possession of a large financial fortune or living in the spotlight of public adoration and fame. What I think it means is that you act in accordance with your own identity while acting in ways that are positive and conducive to happiness, serenity and harmony. What I think it means is that you generate positive energies and in turn, your positive energies have a positive effect on others. Linkin' Monuments-- a positive chain of energy! Read More>>>

The Thirteen Reasons

1.) You are as important as the next person
2.) Your contributions to this world are as monumental as the next person
3.)You believe in yourself because you know you "can"
4.)You believe in your neighbors because you know they "can"
5.)No matter how difficult it may seem, you are not alone.
6.)You deserve as much respect as does the next person
7.)Don't wonder so much what your life might have been but put into action what you want your life to become.
8.)You matter because we all matter.
9.)Enough failures will lead to success once you succeed in failing to give up.
10.)This world has so much to offer and you have so much more to offer it.
11.)You have many talents and abilities...a few which may have yet to be uncovered.
12.)The treasures you may seek are near enough the heart that it wouldn't take more than a heartbeat to uncover the most precious gems of all.
13.)You are here because you belong!

Welcome!

The Three Conditions

1.)This network is for one and for all...No matter what color, what creed or belief, what political affiliation you subscribe or what candidate you endorse this network is open to you.
2.)As in any community each one of us has our own unique personalities, traits, belief systems, talents and as long as any of these elements are not breaches against the prosperity of the community then they should be allowed, accepted and honored. Community is about diversity. This is a Community
3.)It is my greatest hope that we learn from each other. Each one of us has so much to offer. No one here is better or smarter or more talented than the next person. Each one of us has our strengths; each one of us has our weaknesses. Your strength in one area is of great benefit to my weakness in that same area. A simple philosophy of mine: "A greedy mine is to learn, yet not teach & A lazy mind is to yearn, yet not reach" Let us not be greedy, let us not be lazy.
