Dear Possible Readers,
It has been a very busy last couple of weeks, my very bestest of friends just got married. Which was beautiful and wonderful, but ohhh so crazy busy. Now, The forth of July is on the way..... and let me tell ya, us Mainers take this holiday very seriously. So my writing and mysterious mind is once again filled with nothing but life.
I am looking forward in life slowing down, so I can get some work done. Until then I rest my creative side and reside my holiday style. Although my writing journal is getting ridiculously full of pictures and creative story plots.
In a few weeks I should have a new published piece out, which I am very excited about. :)
Sincerely yours,
J.T. Brown

Busy Writing......
Dear Possible Readers,
Wishing I had eight hours a night to write, my journal is filling up with idea's and passions. The busy life of motherhood and reality keeps me from striking my fingertips on the keyboard for hours. In between times, while my children are finding their creative qualities in art projects. I have been tinkering with a project outside of novel writing.
A few years back, I had lost my childhood equine friend. I felt so thankful to have her in my life throughout all the changes and challenges of starting a life. It was a joy to have my daughter learn how to ride on my very first horse. After she had passed I wrote and designed a small book to help my daughter understand the true meaning of loving and providing for a large animal for so many years.
It has always been a life time goal for me to start a rescue/ therapeutic riding stable. As, I aged it seems to be so far away, but my heavy heart still wants to help the other equine rescue centers and kennels in our local area. I was tossing the idea around, publishing the children picture book on kindle/nook, and donating proceeds to local rescue centers. In one hand I would be fulfilling my long term goal and passing something so dear to me to help others in need.
It is a thought.......
So, when I am unable to write. I would like to put some time and research in this project. It would be a great feeling to pass on my old equine friend's memory and the chance to teach my children to reach out for others.
I usually don't share such personal thoughts on my blog, but the whole purpose is to share myself. So there is a piece. Let's see how it pans out. :)
Happy Reading,

Reality Check!!!
Dear Possible Readers,
I have finally got my computer back, and feeling at home. I have hit writing hard, as I missed it so much. On the other token, I feel as though I have learned a thing or two while, I took some time off from my writing. Hence, very difficult, but well needed. I took some time to realize when a writer is so deeply in their story, their true focus is nothing but the next plot. We loose focus on what is around us even though we truly recognize our daily adventures. I always thought my husband was nuts, when he told me I emotionally left conversations and he could see my mind was else where. LOL!!! Never thought anyone noticed my absence.
The past week and half we have spent our time in a beautiful camp on a near by lake. Which, has been a tad bit difficult with a child that has asthma and many many allergies, and one child that loves the outdoors as much as I do. So deciding to stay back and protect my love from going into a allergy attack, I sat watching my family sail off on the lake to fish, as so many more ideas and stories fluttered my mind. It was so hard keeping my cool, Through the wonderful guest, and the long night hoping for my children to rest, of course I reached for my husbands laptop and filled it with many stories, a all nighter. Which was a poor decision knowing that my children would either be sleep walking or in needs of asthma treatments.
It just felt so good to feel the passion in a lost story. Not realizing that story writing is what I do, what I love. It is almost a addiction to get my words along the digital screen and fill my mind in fiction, but when reality sets in and life starts once again the next day. Being out of my "What I call ordinary" really took me back and recognized many people and walks of life.
We are so completely blessed with family and friends, we had the joy visitors daily. Which, was nice, it gave me a chance to not only escape from life hood and the many panicked hours of motherhood. The beauty of the place and the kindness of friends just re lite my passion and opened my horizons on what I thought was limited.
I guess, knowing that not everything is a success, but knowing someday the little things will be huger than life. Finding yourself is the biggest accomplishment. Finding your passion is the luck of the hand.
Yours Truly,
J.T. Brown

Inspiration of new stories.....
Dear Readers,
This past week, I have been lost without my computer unable to work on my latest writes. On the other hand I am beginning to think that I needed time to wrap my mind around other stories. My family and I have been staying in a beautiful camp on a lake. Watching my children play, fishing trips, and sitting around the fire has brought my mind into another world of mystery. I have begun to write on a new story tonight, it is actually a mystery thriller. Which is unlike me, but I feel as through it is perfect. I have tinkered with the idea trying to incorporate the story in the Reversing Worlds Series, not realizing that it stands on its own. So as I sit on the deck of this wonderful camp, sipping on my coffee listening to the loons across the lake, I am sunk into the mysteries of its visitors.
So as I bog down my husband's laptop with my busy hands, it feels so good to put my energy back into what I love to do. So as I thought I was taking a break, other stories are taking flight.
