Why do I write?

That is what I want to tell everyone LOL. I have several sites and I have had to decide which ones are my personal blogs. and which one will be my BOOK BLOG....well my Official BOOK BLOG will be www.tinarobertsauthor.wordpress.com 

I post on all of my sites, I will post on various topics here and hope that you will follow ALL of my sites. Each one has a different "personality" and serves a different purpose.
Part of this post has also been posted on my Book Blog, but I thought that it was also relevant here. So here Goes:

I started to write when I was very young. A clean sheet of paper was all I needed. That desire grew more urgent as I grew older. Now it is my pupose in life. I want to share my writing with  you through my dreamworld that I have created within my own mind. The characters have evolved over the years as I keep adding more information to the story I wanted to tell one day. Well.....that day is here now.

I love to write. It is 2:30am now and I can't go to sleep until I have written all I can. When my brain dries up, then I will sleep...only to get up and begin to write again.

I believe that a true writer has it in their blood. It is something that they have to do. At least that is how I operate. I do have to pull myself away from my computer to clean the house and do all of life's mundane activities. The only thing that can draw me away from my computer, without any grumblings is a visit with my grandchildren. I am 47 and lucky to be young enough to enjoy them. My Severe Fibromyalgia does play some cruel tricks on my body when it is in full flare, but my babies love to ride on my lap in the electric wheelchair that is a necessity for me when my legs refuse to do what they were designed to do. I am just grateful that my hands work wonderfully, no matter how the rest of my body feels LOL.

I am doing rewrites at this time but here is a snippet of what my book is about. PLEASE leave a comment to let me know if you think you might like to read it when it is published. I have 2 publishers requesting a final (YAY), but I can only submit to one at a time....so pray I make the right decision. So without any more delay...here is the snippet:

A romance blooms in a small Cove Community in the Great Smoky Mountains just after the Civil War.

Love will find a way... is a 60,000-70,000 (word count can be adjusted) word inspirational romance novel set in post Civil War Tennessee. When a fever claims the lives of her family, Jessica Marshall embarks on what will be the most important journey of her life. She is compelled by grief to leave Texas in search of an Aunt that she has never met. The small isolated community of Camerson Cove is deep within the Tennessee Mountains, isolated from the world outside. With the end of her long trip near an end, a horrible accident leaves Jessica with no memory of who she is.

Grant Barclay was expecting the arrival of a nanny for his children on the ill-fated Stage Coach on the day of Jessica's arrival. When no other passengers were found, this brooding stranger offers her details of who she is and why she is in Camerson Cove, she is shocked to learn that she is the Nanny, for which he paid passage on the coach that brought her to this small, but welcoming Cove Community. He expects her to care for his two motherless children. Something about this man pulls at her tattered heartstrings. The sadness in his dark brown eyes haunts her as she takes the first steps into a new life meant for another woman.
