Do you believe in "pre-incarnation"?





Do you believe in "pre-incarnation"?
This is one of the most inventive manuscripts I have ever edited. Moreover, it is beautifully written, with strong verbs and wonderfully creative descriptions. The characters are strong -- even the minor characters, such as The Old One. The inner dialogue of the two main characters is revealing, and shows real emotional growth of both of them throughout this book.
 
I think what I liked most about this manuscript is that it calls on the reader to truly think about the possibility -- no, likelihood -- that reincarnation (and perhaps "pre-incarnation" actually exist. This is a fascinating story, beautifully told. It has"best-seller" written all over it.

Do you believe in second chances?

Returning Souls begins with 60-something Evie D'Arico laying on the kitchen floor unable to move a muscle, though she sees and feels everything around her. She rises above the world through a dimension of color, horizon, and stars coming to rest in a primordial forest of fragrant trees and neon green moss. A place from memory. The life of a person she used to be. 

Jumping to her feet, she waits for the familiar neck pain and stiff knees. Instead, a lithe body moves with animal grace and stealth. A garment fashioned from supple hide is smooth against her skin. Massive trees with shaggy bark of russet brown shelter her. What is this place?

An overriding thought shatters the reverie: Move quietly! Do not even breathe. Listen before you move. Make sure you are alone.

She is a long way from home.

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...

A Tip for Authors: What to Put on the Back Cover of a Book

If you have accomplished the arduous task of writing a book, you may not embrace the job of choosing what to put on your book's back cover. Maybe you think that a short biography, along with a few endorsements should suffice. Actually the material on the back cover can carry out its intended job, without the presence of a two or three line bio. It does pay to highlight any endorsements you have received from experts within the industry, or from recognized members of government or society. Still, you may not have on file an endorsement that can stir up the emotions in a potential reader. Yet you have little reason to hope that the reader of the rear covering piece will elect to look at the pages between the covers, if you fail to trigger that same person's emotions. With that fact in mind, you must consider what emotions might push a book lover to purchase the publication that bears your name. Maybe that potential reader feels challeng...

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...
