We all dream down here.
Rough images, sentences, bits I come up with. Sometimes while free writing. Others are half remembered dreams or thoughts I've written down. All grist for the mill.

Book 2 in my Read Around The World project was Above Us The Milky Way, by Fowzia Karimi - chosen for Afghanistan.
The author grew up in the US after fleeing "the first land." The book tells the story of five sisters, their parents, two lands, and how the heart is forever affected by both. #BookSky

The #1 rule of #booksky is that your self promotional posts may not outnumber your other posts to the feed and almost all of you are in violation of this rule!
I get so many complaints about this - it's ruining the feeds and driving everyone's sales down too.
