BOOK TOUR BASICS CLASS: Hello everyone! I've been slaving over a non-fiction keyboard doing the news on KABC this week. Normally I'm in the fiction world and writing screenplays. Since I've been media training authors for book tours for many years (I coached Lisa Lutz of Simon & Schuster's "The Spellman Files" series) I decided to offer an online class this Halloween to ward off scary book tours! Details are on my page here and under EVENTS. Come join me! VJ www.media-trainer.com

SKY PARK is my new novella available at Amazon and Barnes & Nobel.com

OVERVIEW: Dreams…what are they, and why do we have them? I have ventured into the realms of the unconscious. Questioning the persona within my dreams, on the secrets of the dream realms. I have returned with answers that will shock, and leave you spellbound. Join me in my first true-life book of the theories, and realities of the worlds that await us behind closed eyes. I wrote this book, following true events in my life. I’ve been writing from the age of eighteen, and now I’m thirty-five. With so many years in the literary field, I feel my story is ready to be shared with others. It may seem like pure Fiction when you read it. Yet, keep it in mind as you do read that it is far from the realm of mere storytelling. All my life, I have relied upon Dreams to keep me sane. Growing up, my dreams were my only true escape from the harsh reality, some call life.

Hoping to find a group restricted to authors of fiction, but noticed mostly promotional and marketing info. Is that the focus of this group?

Wanted to share a review of my novel Widow's Walk reviewed by Micki Peluso author and member of Published Authors. Widow's Walk is available on Amazon
Widow's Walk by Kenneth Weene is one of the best narrative novels that I have had the pleasure of reading. Mary Flanagan seems at first a typical Irish-American Catholic matriarch. But she is so much more. To Mary, her deep faith in God and her Church sets her life on a charted journey, so tightly mapped that she has become her Church. Even her personal habit of cleaning her glasses and fluffing her hair is a rigid pattern--never changing throughout her life. For Mary, so much of her hard, often empty life, is set in black and white and she cannot, will not accept shades of gray. Her children seem molded from the same clay until desperation enables her son, Sean, a quadriplegic, courtesy of the Vietnam War, to take a chance on living again. Her daughter, Kathleen, held captive by grief due the loss of her baby and to her mother's stern religious rites, will require time to reclaim her own broken life. Weene's characters are so true to life that the reader not only becomes attached to them but is absorbed into their intricate lives. When the reader least expects it, Mary experiences an epiphany of a different sort. Widowed for years, she falls in love with a man who shows her that it's all right to be happy and free from self-inflicted rigidities. Mary becomes a new person, freed from her own prison, but not from new sorrow and heartache. Weene brings his book to an astonishing close and this reader was sorry to see this most extraordinary story come to an end.

Hello everyone,
I write for the children.
It is my prayer that every child might not only know about Jesus, but that they feel His presence. That their minds turn toward him in their everyday play; including Him in all things.
I try to write my children’s books, so that they might understand this in simple fun ways.
I want that every time a child blows a soap bubble, that they blow it for Jesus, and that their hopes will be to see Him inside of it.
I want when they sing; that it is for Jesus to hear their voices. And when they pray their simple prayers that they know He is listening.
They are so pure, so innocent, so loving.
God has given us gifts to share with them.
I ask for prayer that these gifts be shared with all children through out the world.
Praise be to God in all things.
