Catch Fire Blogfest, 28 February 2012

Alex is hosting a Blogfest today to promote his new book and I'm help a fellow blogger out!  Go check out his blog and his books.  He's an incredibly talented writer.

"CassaStar was only the beginning…
The Vindicarn War is a distant memory and Byron’s days of piloting Cosbolt fighters are over. He has kept the promise he made to his fallen mentor and friend - to probe space on an exploration vessel. Shuttle work is dull, but it’s a free and solitary existence. The senior officer is content with his life aboard the Rennather.

The detection of alien ruins sends the exploration ship to the distant planet of Tgren. If their scientists can decipher the language, they can unlock the secrets of this device. Is it a key to the Tgren's civilization or a weapon of unimaginable power? Tensions mount as their new allies are suspicious of the Cassan's technology and strange mental abilities.

To complicate matters, the Tgrens are showing signs of mental powers themselves, the strongest of which belongs to a pilot named Athee, a woman whose skills rival Byron’s unique abilities. Forced to train her mind and further develop her flying aptitude, he finds his patience strained. Add a reluctant friendship with a young scientist, and he feels invaded on every level. All Byron wanted was his privacy…

When In Doubt ...write

Lately I have been throwing myself into writing, poems mostly. The thoughts mostly come at night when I'm relaxed and lying in bed (just before I fall asleep) and then I have to get up and write stuff down (otherwise I forget).  My hubby thinks I'm mad lately.

I don't claim to be a writer but I'm nevertheless going to post some for you to critique.  Be honest!

 
Enough

I love you
enough to do anything for you.
Give my life,
my love,
my heart,
my soul to you
and for you.

Enough to willingly give all my effort, trust and prayers to you.
Enough to want to protect and comfort you.
Enough to want the best for you to wish for your successes.
Enough to cherish you and respect you.
Enough to fight for you, compromise for you, sacrifice for you.
Enough to miss you incredibly when we're apart,
no matter what length of time or distance.
Enough to believe in our family to never give up on us.
Enough to never want to leave you or live without you.

I love you this much
