May 2012

I must confess that I am in a bit of a writers funk.
 I am not sure if this is from too much to do or too many places to be at once. Between wedding showers; planning holistic fairs, attending art shows or uncovering new historic sites in the area –

The Bellflower Bulletin is growing along nicely, and Trend Magazine – Upscale Living - debut issue is well underway.

And I have received an invitation to be included in the “Who’s Who in Journalism”.

This very place is the Lotus Land of Purity,

This very body is the Body of the Buddha.
