Fifty Shades of Grey * Fifty Shades Darker * Fifty Shades of Freed written by E.L. James.

Well . . . lets see, Hmmm . . . Literature? Not sure . . . but it is a phenomenon and the writer has made a mint. Erotica? . . . from what I've read it's probably not considered real Erotica but close enough. There's nothing complicated here, it's a love story based on, I believe, the Twilight Characters of Edward and Bella. It's pure escapeism and fantasy; and is DEFINITELY NOT rated PG or even R. I would rate it XX with a possibilty of another X added on. NOT for children or teens. There's a lot of repetition and sex; but be warned, if you do start reading, it's sort of like a Lay's potato chip, you can't read just one.

Sometimes when you think everything is going just peachy you find out you've bitten into a pit. LOL
I submitted my children's book, "Where Dragonflies Dance" and was very excited and tremendouly expectant. I also sent another book I'd worked on a few years ago just to see what the editor thought of it, really as an after thought. I waited patiently, just knowing my beautifully illustrated "Dragonflies" would be accepted immediately. My phone alerted me about four weeks later that I had an email from my publisher. Surprise, surprise, they didn't want the Dragonflies Book, that I'd worked on so hard for so many weeks, they wanted the other one. I can't tell you how surprised I was. I'm glad they wanted it, but I did learn a valuable lesson. I won't assume anthing anymore, especially when it comes to the publishing industry, or take any of my other works for granted. OH! by the way, the one they accepted is about a tall purple shoe. Maybe that's what it'll be titled, "The Tall Purple Shoe." It should be available sometime in 2013. I'll keep you posted.
