Have you ever noticed how people have a tendency to think someone is being judgmental or bitter because that person bluntly says what they do and do not like?
I don't think I agree with that. I don't think it means someone is judgmental or bitter when they express their likes and dislikes, I just think it means they have enough life experience to know what works for them and what doesn't.
Is that really a bad thing? I don't think so. In my eyes, that means a person knows themselves well enough and has sampled life enough to figure out what kind of person they'd get along with better than others. Those people should be commended, not admonished.
For those who haven't come to that realization about themselves, I don't really think those people are ready for a real relationship yet.
After all, you can't really know others unless you really know yourself, am I right? Anyway, it's just something to think about.
I have seen way too many people on singles sites and out in real life who are obviously still learning about themselves and haven't reached the pinnacle of life yet where they know what would be good for them and what would not.
Is it fair to bring someone else into your life to share that life with them if you're still trying to figure out what it is that makes you happy and what it is that makes you sad?
I really don't think it is.

My books!
Well, Amazon hasn't updated my price for my now-picture-added Ebay Antiques and Collectibles guide, so get it at 99 cents while you still can! It has over 275 pictures as well as tons of info.
That and other books can be found on the following page....

Youthful Paradox: Disco Fever has arrived
Greetings, folks! I just wanted to announce that I recently uploaded my new novella. If it sells well, I'll continue the series and, if not, at least I got the story out there. It can be found in two locations right now, Amazon (If you have a Kindle) and Smashwords where you can retrieve it in a variety of formats, including text and PDF. Once it is fully processed it will also be available in Apple's store, Barnes and Noble, Sony's store, as well as a few others. I did notice one grammatical boo-boo for certain in the Smashwords version involving a question mark and some quotation marks, but I can always send a revision later once I see if it sells well or not. Hopefully it does okay. Hey, for 99 cents I think it's worth the read at least. It is my first attempt at writing anything non-informative in nature, so it was quite the challenge for me. But with time and practice, I'm sure I will improve. Thanks for your support!

It's DONE!
I have submitted my book to Amazon and Smashwords and it's in the process of being processed. When everything is approved, I'll send the link.

My new book is almost here!
I've been working really hard on my latest E-book, and should have it released, hopefully, by next Thursday. It's my first non-academic, non-informative book type I've ever written, so be patient with me if it sucks. My writing will only get better once I start doing this full time. It's going to be more of a novella as opposed to a novel. It will also be part of a series IF it has enough of a following to make it worth my while to continue it. If not, then all I can say is that I tried. However, even if it tanks, I still plan on writing tons of informative books, on everything from romance and sex to nutrition and the history of housing to income ratios. Some things will seem exciting, others informative, and some maybe even a little boring, but hey, I just enjoy writing about what I know, so take it or leave it, I'm going to do it.
