SHARON VANDER MEER
I write because it makes me smile. I read because it makes me think.
Beginnings
SEASONS
Spring blooms glorious birth,
Summer sun warms the earth,
Autumn flames riotous bright,
Winter freezes into cozy quiet.
Laughter weaves through it all,
Answering to nature’s call.
MORNING
Mauve weaves through
Gold and pink,
Slashes of purple
Wink and blink
Night tugs toward day.
Get up! Get up!
Bright colors sing
Receive this, Heaven’s gift
Let your soul take wing
Time passes oh so swift.
Night tugs toward day.
FIRST LIGHT
The day arrives
Am I ready? NOT.
Good to go,
Oh what rot!
More to do
Than I can take
Less time to do it
I’m barely awake!
FIRST LIGHT II
Incandescent red
Shot through with light
Yellow orange bright
Flaming across the dark of dawn
First light pierced with errant ray
Melding hues, surge into day.
Morning is here.

The journey continues
Because it took a while to write my latest book –Thunder Prime, Hunter’s Light – you might think the process was a real drag. SO not so. Part of the problem was a tendency to go down divergent paths that complicated a basically simple story. I don’t think I’ll write another Thunder Prime novel, but in Hunter’s Light, there are a couple of characters with their own stories to tell. We shall see.
Between Bawdy McClure and Hunter’s Light, I published two novels – Finding Family and Blind Curve – and two chap books of poetry. In other words, I have not been idle, I’ve just had a dickens of a time focusing. For quite a while I wrote with some frequency on One Roof Publishing, also my author website, consequently the actual NAME of the site, but for the last three months I’ve been doing other things. Now it’s time to do the thing I most want to do, write and publish.
I’m reminded regularly that it’s a no-no to ask people to buy my books. The blogging gurus say to provide worthwhile content that serves the greater good. I don’t mind that, but guess what, I’m a writer. The only way I am compensated for my work, is when you buy my books. So, please, buy my books.
