Writers just want to have fun

<

“But why would you want to help someone do
something that puts them into competition with you?”
I was recently asked that question after a stranger overheard my enthusiasm about teaching an upcoming writing workshop… but you see I don’t see how helping other aspiring writers enjoy their craft is competition. I see it as helping to create a word of communication.
If you have a Kindle then you can subscribe to my weekly writing workshop,
Living, Breathing, Writing from Amazon blogs ~ there is a new lesson every Friday
Even if you don’t have a Kindle, you don’t have to miss out. You can download

Living Breathing, Writing: A Lesson a Day

for a full month of lessons, exercises and prompts
By the way, that writing workshop I was speaking so enthusiastically about is happening on September 21, 7pm, at the Suffern Free Library

Hyphema: Bleeding in the eye caused by trauma

Matt Garratti, a paramedic from New York, moves his wife and son to North Carolina to work at his dream job as a flight medic. Pakistani born Sudah, his wife, receives frosty stares and insensitive comments from their new neighbors. Before long, Matt wonders if he is pursuing his dream or bringing his family into a nightmare from which they may never wake.

Editorial Reviews

In Hyphema, author Chelle Cordero meets headlong a number of real problems facing her characters. She doesn’t sugar-coat cultural differences and prejudice. The series of incidents and the deaths faced by Matt and Sudah cause them to face these problems and gives the love story a depth well-done. —Janet Lane Walters


Ms. Cordero tackles such amazingly current topics-hate, prejudice, fear of the different, with such enjoyable, suspenseful, and well-researched background, that this reader will be following her closely to see what she writes next. Each medical scene resonates with reality, and each chapter flows into the next with a flutter in the pit of the stomach for what is coming, as well as what has been. —
Brian Davidson
