Hello ladies and gentlemen. I am a first time author of a published memoir entitled A Lesser Pain. I am currently promoting my work while simultaneously working on the second installment and taking care of a 3 year old at the same time. I am an ex convict who after three terms of imprisonment finally beat the odds of recidivism. I clawed my way through a dysfunctional childhood, fostercare, drug abuse and prison to finish a writing A Lesser Pain.

Hi Henry,

Welcome to the forum! Promoting and looking after a three-year-old sounds like a lot of hard work! Congratulations on pulling your life around and good luck with the book!

Thank you for the invitation. My name is Martha "marti" Tucker, the author of the
award winning novel, THE MAYOR'S WIFE WORE SAPPHIRES, an urban political thriller
set in Compton,CA. I founded the "premierewriters.com" site, a social network for

including ourselves, make their dreams come true.

My niche is helping authors get paid well for their words.
