Knowledge Is Power 
     I truly believe that understanding more about cancer is the key to a successful fight against it.  
    When you know more about what you are fighting against, you can figure out how to prepare for that fight. When you have an idea of what to expect, you can begin to take back control.
     Drawing on my own personal experience and experience with my patients, I've been inspired to write this book. I want to deliver a powerful message about cancer in straightforward, down-to-earth language that anyone can understand. Through this book, I want to raise awareness and share the information I have learned over the years. 
     This book is a personal conversation that I want to have with you. I will talk to you like I talk to my patients in my San Diego clinic. I have grown to love and admire my patients, and they have been as supportive of me as I am of them. But in these chapters, I can tell you even more than I can in my one-on-one appointments. 
     You are able to be informed, educated, and ready to make intelligent decisions about your health. And I am on your team. 
     Our journey together will be both illuminating and empowering. You can take charge of your own life by being proactive and resourceful. Cancer will not rule your life. You can take action to reduce your risk of getting cancer, and you can take action should cancer strike in your life or that of a loved one.       I want to congratulate you just for picking up this book and becoming a more informed patient. Your future is literally in your hands
     Are you ready to fight cancer, together?

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...

Those S and ES Endings by Mary Deal

These endings have always troubled me until I finally decided to get it right. Compare the versions and pick out the correct usages in this name ending with the letter s . The Joneses came for dinner. The Jones’s came for dinner. The Jones came for dinner. John Joneses car stalled. John Jones car stalled. John Jones’s car stalled. That Jones’s girl. That Joneses girl. That Jones girl. The correct sentences are: The Joneses came for dinner. John Jones’s car stalled. That Jones girl. Some tips: When a name ends with an s, and when speaking of the family as a group, add es , as in Joneses. When speaking about something John Jones owned, it is his property and, therefore, an apostrophe and s shows ownership, as in Jones’s . When speaking about a person in the singular, use only the name Jones. However, when speaking about a group of girls all named Jones, you would write that sentence: The Jones girls . Notice that the name stays...

Character Sketches

    How to bring your characters to life.   Assuming you've chosen your POV, you will already be thinking about your characters. True, too, you may have been thinking about your characters before choosing your POV. The two go hand in hand, or word-for-word. In order to flesh out your characters and give them ample zing, it's a good idea to make lists of attributes for each player in the plot. However thorough, you must then write your scenes to fit each character. That is, each scene that you write when a character appears in the story should reveal what you planned for him or her when you made your list, and how you planned for them to act. Of course, as the story develops, any character may take on a different persona than you first imagined. That's not a problem. Amending the original sketch will suffice, keeping in mind how the new character image affects all the other characters and the plot overall. I've always been interes...
