I would also like to include your response to the following questions, a
picture of your choice, and any links that you would like to include.

I was inspired to write this novel in the hopes that it would relate to others that have dealt with these same predicaments or are going through these same issues as of now.

As with many hurtful issues they never get talked about nor discussed they are written in a diary or stored in our mental rolodex to fester. Normally when you introduce a subject that many tend to shy away from or feel intimidated by they feel more comfort in knowing they are not the only ones!
My sole inspiration was to assist and educate others as well as tell a phenomenal story!

My advice to perspective writers would be to always write from your heart and make it meaningful. If you have the gift of being a critical thinker and a creative writer use it. Share your story and/or vision because there is always someone out there that can relate and will enjoy your masterpiece!

Nothing comes from a dreamer but a dream!

Accomplishments would be my novel In-Laws From Hell and the other novels that are coming soon.

John Galsworthy – English Novelist and Dramatist, Co-founder and First President International PEN by Arthur Smith

John Galsworthy’s authorship seems to develop unusually smoothly, pushed on by a conscientious and indefatigable creative impulse. Yet he is not one … who … turned to the literary career rapidly and without resistance. Born, as the English put it, with a silver spoon in his mouth, that is, economically independent, he studied at Harrow and Oxford, chose the law without practicing it, and traveled all over the world. When, at the age of twenty-eight, he began writing for the first time, the immediate reason was the exhortation of a woman friend, and it was to Galsworthy a mere recreation, evidently not without the inherent prejudices of the gentleman, against the vocation of writing. His first two collections of tales were published under the pen name of John Sin john, and the editions were soon withdrawn by the self-critical beginner. Not until he was thirty-seven did he begin his real authorship by publishing the novel The Island Pharisees (1904), and two years later appeared The Man of Property, the origin of his fame and at the same time of his monumental chief work, The Forsyte Saga. So went Galsworthy’s citation on his receiving the Nobel Prize for literature in abstentia…
