Good morning everyone! I am so happy to be here. My name is Sylvia Stein and I am a published author. My Anthology entitled, Giant Tales Beyond The Mystic Doors is on Amazon. It was published on February 14, 2013. I published this book with my fabulous writer's group on Linkedin. It was all started up by the fabulous Heather Marie Schuldt. This is a collection of three minute short stories from 16 authors including myself. 4 of my stories are on this first Anthology. I am so happy to be here. I am a wife and mother of three beautiful children and I live in Fuquay Varina NC. I have always had a passion for writing since I was a kid. However, I had never found the time to work on it full time that is until 2010 when I began working on my first suspense novel and I was encouraged tremendously by Best selling author Melissa Foster. She was the first person I connected when I began on the social media and she has been so amazing and paved it forward with her numerous groups, Womens Nest, The World Literary Cafe, Melissa's Awesome Support Team, Fostering Success etc. I have met so many great people, authors and writers etc, who have helped in making my dream a reality. I am very grateful for everything and I know I am going to get better. I also want to say thanks to Tammie Clarke Gibbs- and her incredible group of #Share an Excerpt - Virtual E-book fair and all the wonderful people there. Also to Victoria Wachuk and her Exchange Fan Page. I also want to thank all those authors and wirters who have hosted me on their blog. I appreciate all you have done for me. I also want to thank Good Reads for allowing me to have an author's page here! Thanks!
