State of Mind All The Time
The birds singing in the morning, the form of cotton clouds, the sea kissing the sand, the freedom sensation and this force that leads me to smile. The flowers nature beauty, the animals inspiration way of living, the human being ability to love, or the sunset at the beach. Is this the so talked state of mind?
I fell like flying constantly in the love wings. I had no anger, no sorrow, no misunderstanding, no disappointments, no judgments, no regrets, no sorrow, no doubts, no pretending, no excuses, no blame, no shame and no return. This light felling that took account of my being is here to stay. What does make me fell this way? Was had re-manufactured my thoughts, purified my soul and set free my heart? I re-manufactured thoughts without evidences, justifications and reasons. I recreated a new thinking way reprogramming believes into a flex ball dance of acceptance.

Love Recipes
You go to a search engine and type the question. How to make a girl/guy fall in love with you? Is 73,000,000 answers enough to find out what love is? Why should we need a recipe to capture someone?
Who is this love, that everybody want to be with? I never spoke with him we never benign introduced, and I never saw him on TV. Love never called me in a Saturday morning to offer a Telecom promo. Never being invited to his birthday party. Nobody can describe me how he look like if he had blue eyes, dark or blond hair, short or high, but everybody is in his search. Even so, today he is an Internet sensation. How can Internet help to find someone who you never saw?

Kiss Me Baby
A French Kiss, Butterfly Kiss, Earlobe Kiss, Cheek Kiss, Eskimo Kiss, Forehead Kiss, Hand Kiss, Finger Kiss, the list there's no end. When comes to kissing we explore all our creativity. It makes us fly, crawl, sweat, dream, go mad, happy, and we can not help to want more.
You wake in a middle of a cold winter night cover in sweat, breathless and agitated.

Can Sex Exist Without Love?
A dear friend between the spaghetti and the fruity red, ask me: "Does sex without love exist?" I was not sure what were more tasteful, the spaghetti, the red or the question. Yes, tasteful, because is just matter of taste, some would enjoy it and others would not. Two different things tied by hearts and minds.
There are a few things that contribute to answer it, own experience, gender, personality, believes, interpretation or simply how they work. There are different experiences with love and sex.

Finding Sales Outlets
I really want to get more books sold in the new year. I am going to have to find new sources of outlets that will not only sell my books but sources that will help SELL my books. I would also like to find a company willing to make the purchase of a few dozen to give out in some sort of a customer promotion. That would be a big help in getting more books sold by reader's word of mouth recommendations.

Outline
I have been busy lately, and I feel really guilty that I haven't been able to spend time on my cookbook. I have narrowed it down to what I know best....baking. I have no idea what kind of a market is out there for baking books, so I went to Chapters to check out what kind of books already exist. I don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing...thoughts anyone? It seemed intimidating to look at all of the beautiful covers with fancy designs and stuff. Lulu has some tips that I will need to read over...and memorize! I also found that there are some websites specific to book cover design for self publishers. I guess that it's wrong to be worrying about the cover of my book first. Well, first I worried about WHAT I was going to write about, NOW, I'm worrying about what it's going to look like! Perhaps, I should be worrying about what I'm going to put IN the book.

Cookbook it is!
I think that I have decided to write a book about cooking. I imagine it won't be successful, but hey, at least I will have a collection of recipes for my family and my children to have when I'm gone. It's kind of like writing in cement...it will be there permanently. What I have been doing in the last couple of days is researching on how to go about writing a cookbook....duh. Good place to start, huh? So, I went to all of my ancient recipes from my mom's mom...mmmmm peanut butter cookies....none better than grandma's recipe :) the next that was a sure thing was grandma's roast beef dinner with yorkshire pudding!! Yum...I'm getting hungry thinking about it. Roast beef, yorkshire pudding and pb cookies for dessert! A true British indulgence :)....minus the pb cookies. Maybe I could do a section on British food....um, on further thought, how about not. Gross! Mushy peas and fish and chips. That would sure be a SHORT chapter. I'm next onto researching which kind of a self-publishing company would be recommended for such a publishing endeavour as mine.

It's Martin here...
First time blogger, long time book lover.
I have started my investigations into looking into self publishers. I'm finding that there is a lot of information on the internet...(DUH). But, there is so much info that I find it almost overwhelming. Which publisher should I use? How much money should I invest in this endeavour? How much money will I make...will I make money? Is it possible to make money? Money, money, money!! Then I'm encountering the daunting question "What the heck am I qualified to write about?" Self-doubt is HUGE! Hopefully I get some suggestions along the way and the right guidance. There's always the "take the road less travelled" idea. Maybe I'll go for that fork when I come to it.
