Sneak Peak

I have a few sneak peaks regarding my new book I am working on~
Working title and other information in the future!



"I have always thought of myself for the most part as being strong.  But after years and now months and months of nonstop hell, it had finally taken its toll and I came to the conclusion that this isn't a weakness, it is just being human.  If I didn't feel any of this, if none of this affected me, I wouldn't be human.  I wouldn't care or feel at all so to put this in a positive perspective, at least I am not without deep feelings and emotions."


"High school is a time when teenagers start to grasp a small concept of who they are, what type of a personality they have, who they REALLY want as friends surrounding them, having their first boyfriend/girlfriend, crying from a broken heart, attending prom, which college they will get into, making memories that will last a lifetime.  It's a magical time when a kid is carefree, having no concept of what it's like to become an adult with hundreds of responsibilities.  The worst thing to happen is to be turned down by a crush, lose the big football game, not get picked to be in the school play, realizing a zit has just popped up right before a big date!  To be that carefree again is something I truly miss.  I sometimes wish I could go back in time and relive some moments in my life differently."





"I remember when I first got the chance to play around on the Internet.  It was in high school and I was sitting in the computer lab when the teacher told us that we could use the rest of the class period to cruise the World Wide Web.  It was so exciting, all this knowledge and answers to just about all your questions, right at your fingertips!  I recall going into chat rooms, looking up my favorite actor, using the Net to do a history report which was so much easier than taking notes out of a book.  I thought it was so brilliant to be able to send personal mail but electronically.  This technology was wonderful and I never ever could fathom there being a dark side to it.

But there's a dark side to everything really.  Now when I log into my personal email account, if I see that I have messages, I wince."


"It all happened so quickly as I walked up to the information desk, softly asked which floor human resources was located on and then walked to the elevator doors, hoping she wouldn't follow me up.  Luckily she didn't and as I exhaled the breath I was holding, the ding of the elevator door chimed and the doors opened.  I stepped out of the dark elevator and again was met with the cheerful sun beaming in through the many windows on the third floor.  I made my way to human resources and checked in to see if they were hiring."
