Mary Beth,
I would really appreciate it if you would help to get the word out about Bhawana's baby shower. That is so sweet of you to offer. Thanks so much.

Hi,
I have entered a Kid's Fantasy story to the Genre Creatives Challenge Group called "Opal, Herby and Squeaky." It is a short version, modified, of my next submission for publishing. This will be my third book out for my "All God's Critters" series. A few of the Illustrations are posted on my Image page. Please take a peek and feel free to comment.
Thank You
Jay M.
BTW: Sal & Sally, my second book, will be listed with Gather Community Press as the first book self published by Gather, through Author House. It is being printed now.

Hi Mary Beth,
I figured out why my article wasnt posted....coz i wasnt selecting private groups (didnt know where to select them from lol....) doesnt matter, I wrote it for the pleasure of it...and it was worth it...and I understand why people would want to prtect their rights over their work....its an insane world out there....u cant even imagine how much of stealing is actually happening...
Hows your mom doing now? Hop she is feeling much better..
