This is a book about hope, tragedy, healing and forgiveness.  It is a personal story of a woman who experienced the sudden tragic loss of her spouse of almost 37 years.

Remember His Name:  Conquering Sorrow, Accepting Joy is a book about hope, tragedy, healing and forgiveness.  It is a personal story of a woman who experienced the sudden tragic loss of her spouse of almost 37 years. You will read of her courage and strength as she stumbled through the first few months, learning to accept the reality of what happened.

      She shares her private personal thoughts and feelings as she traveled a journey she never thought she would ever face.  She is candid and purely honest as she speaks of her experiences.  From the heart, you are there with her, feeling and experiencing the horror as well as the joy as time goes on and she shares with you the steps she took and things she discovered that helped heal the pain of her grief.

      Judith and Ralph met in 1973, fell in love, got married, had two beautiful children, raised them in a rural suburb of Detroit, Michigan, sent them off to college, watched them become independent successful young people and now as a couple experiencing empty nest and nearing retirement began planning their future.  The summer evenings were just right for swinging on their new wooden swing.  They often found themselves reminiscing about the past and planning for the future.

      Then suddenly one beautiful summer evening, all that changed.

      Spiritual events, synchronicity, meditation, journaling and the importance of connecting with others, stepping outside of her comfort zone helped her learn to walk the path of grief. Then finally, she stepped into a new life.  Letting the spirit of her beloved live within her, while letting his physical being go is a philosophy Judith lives by daily.  Always keeping in mind the last words, her husband Ralph wrote to their daughter Holli in an e-mail, "The Future is Bright."

On Writing Chase Scenes

By Carolyn Howard-Johnson Author of  The Frugal Editor,  the winning-est  in her award-winning HowToDoItFrugally Series of books for writers This article is excerpted from some editing I did for a writer of experimental fiction when I was on a Greater Los Angeles Writers Society panel writer of any genre can apply these suggestions to the chase, getaway, or high action scene in your script or manuscript before you send it to an agent or publisher or, better still, while you are writing the first draft.  Sometimes even the most fascinating, interesting and irresistible  detail can slow down the forward movement of your story. So as much as writers are told that detail is important, purge as much as you can from your action scenes and put it somewhere else or dribble it into narrative in other places in your manuscript. In the process, ask yourself if your reader really needs to know the color of the protagonist’s eyes. As important as detail is, some is better left to t

Ampersands: Pretty Is as Pretty Does

   By Carolyn Howard-Johnson Author of the multi award-winning HowToDoItFrugally Series of books for writers   Have you noticed how ampersands turn to gibberish when they are entered into some blog services like Google's blogpsot.com? That is only the beginning of problems ampersands cause for editors, and publishers of all kinds. Many of the difficulties they cause go unnoticed except by the publishing pros we would all like to impress like agents, librarians, bookstore event directors, and the acquisition editors at Knopf!    That's why I added a new section to the second edition of the winningest book in my #HowToDoItFrugally Series of books for writers,  The Frugal Editor . Because ampersands seem to be so popular these days, it's especially important for editors and authors who publish books to know a little about their history, how to use them, and how gatekeepers and readers of Lynn Truss's famous zero-tolerance a

MARGARET FIELAND INTERVIEW (guest blogger)

When did you first know you were destined to be a writer? LOL, I never realized I was destined to be a writer -- I fell into it. I'd written poetry for years, collecting it in notebooks stacked in my attic when I wrote one I wanted to keep. This led me to several online sites and ultimately to discovering the Muse Online Writers Conference where I hooked up with Linda Barnett Johnson and joined her writers forums. She required everyone to write both fiction and poetry, so, with much trepidation, I started writing fiction. Then I got hooked on it, wrote a chapter book, took the ICL course and actually learned how to write it. Then in 2010, I was seized by a desire to write a sci fi novel, so I spent six weeks or so on world building, mostly, with a bit of plotting thrown in for good measure. Who would you cite as your influences? I'm a way-back sci-fi fan, and Robert A. Heinlein influenced me heavily. I took a lot away from his writing, notably the value of surpris
