It was life changing




It was life changing
"Ms. Ortiz has the capacity in her writing to make you feel she is speaking directly to you! Her telling, through a fictional character, about her experience with breast cancer at the age of 37 is moving, funny and, in the end, triumphant. The grace with which her character, Luna, navigates her breast cancer diagnosis is a blueprint for how to handle life's challenges and hurdles. I couldn't put the book down and, when I finished, I felt as if I had lost touch with a cherished friend. I hope she writes a sequel so we can continue to follow and learn from her approach to this journey of life that we are all on." ~Amazon Reader

Smart and fiercely independent, thirty-seven-year-old Luna Rivera had it all. She was fresh out of grad school—officially a PhD. Her team, the Oakland A's were in first place, and it was only two months into the season. Plus, she was in love.

And then, the shit hit the fan. 

One second she was laying on the sofa, watching an old black and white movie—The Thin Man, about a screwball husband and wife team known for solving murders—and just as Myrna Loy's character fell flat on her face while being pulled into a restaurant by her dog, Luna's life came to a screeching halt.


In a matter of seconds, fear hurled her into a world of confusion, uncertainty, and despair. Luna had inadvertently slipped her hand under her T-shirt and touched her breast. That's when life as she knew it vanished.

Creating Your Story Title by Mary Deal

Something writers of multiple stories will experience: Titles may come to you in a flash. Some will take a bit of thinking through. Say you’ve written your first and only story thus far. You may feel you have a great title for that one piece of prose. However, caution should be taken due to lack of experience in titles. You can only know how easy or how difficult choosing a title will be after you’ve written a few stories. For the person who writes many stories or many books, again, choosing a title may come easy, or it may be one of the most difficult aspects of writing. Some writers are unable to start a story unless they have a great title lined up. Then, with that title in mind, they set out to write, only to change the title once they see where the plot and characters lead them. Some authors cannot title a story till it’s written and rewritten for the umpteenth time. Then they decide. Whatever your preference, titles are just as important as the overall story itself...
