#FF Friday Feeling

#SOS Synonym Of Success: When you see your books being pirated and having people commenting that they loved the book! Ok, now go and share the value and spread the word so that other people can buy them and I will be able to write some more good stuff!

That's the comment I left in a website who does book piracy and simply "stole" my book by leaving it there to downloading for free. Hey let me decide who and when and where I want my books free!! See if they buy that...otherwise everyone is free to share quotes from my books. I know that today is still Thirsty Thursday but I´m a bit ahead of time because I´m already preparing the spirits for tomorrow. I was searching on the web to see if there was no more piracy when I found out this:
Today´s Friday Feeling

What was my surprise to not only see my words been chosen and shared around the world but also in such a sweet way, we cannot help and notice there was a care, someone took the time to feel and think about my words to create such design; it made me speechless. Go figure, someone who loves words and who is a prolific writer/author left without words. This is the kind of attitude that makes me continue on my track and keeping writing and thirsty to sharing my own thoughts.

And Happy Thirsty Thursday!

A Total Eclipse of the Art!

As in a week
I will fly away
over LA.

Yet I am still breathing a brief moment of contentment for I just spent my b'day on my birthplace with my family. And I just came back from a short trip to Brazil... 'twas an exhilarating time on the shores of the Atlantic island, in a deep meditative state in a month of introspection and retrospective. There will be a total lunar eclipse early in the morning. And Saturn transits through the last degree of Leo during this eclipse. That's co(S)mically said, it is advisable to check out the results of our decisions over the past two-and-a-half years of our lives. I have nothing to complain from those last couple of years. My books have been sold like fresh bread and I just signed a contract with a Canadian publisher. How about that for a starter? Am I ready to get down to start a new chapter? Oh yeah, I am ready! I'll roll up my sleeves and get ahead with some new work. I will just have to clean up a little to get started with a fresh and bright perspective. I also decided to recycle everything that comes up in my mind and hands, so I take all the trash and, without wasting it, I transform whatever doesn't serve any more to something useful and colorful. I've been using watercolour, brushes and pencil, and not only the pen and, with no pain, I paint and create new things to decorate the lives of those who love and enjoy artistic objects/subjects. I make things in a personal style so no one will achieve the same thing twice, so much for the handicraft style. What's Art anyway? Isn't that something you can feel pleasure about, or something that touches you in a unique way, even if you don't like it, you can still be absorbed by its own beauty? That's something to ponder about. I promise to get back from my tiny little cruise throughout California with 'tides and bites' and lots of mov~i~es to share.
"I have my head set to California..."
And I've got to warn you... I'll be back, baby!

P.S. Just in case I miss the eclipse of the moon, I will still have the stars to count on. And I have my fingers crossed, and my eyes wide open lurking, looking for a star there, in California bay areas, BABY!!! I will have my cellular and video cam ready to roll... a pen would be nice too, for an autograph, or even to take note over a phone number(??) You know, I threw away the numbers I had... (giggles) Silly me!!
