A Friend's Betrayal

Each time you refuse to look at me....I can see it. Each time you don't speak.....I can hear it! Without even touching me, I can feel the betrayal and anger you harbor inside of you. But this time, you are wrong. I didn't do it, but........I am sorry. I am sorry they chose to keep me and let you go.

I, too, am a single mom and teacher. I also love writing- I'm writing a children's book...
Are your posts based on your life or fiction?

A little of both really....pieces of reality woven into the fiction...what I love, what I hate, what I wish could be and what I wish hadn't.

Although I love to write, I don't think I could ever write a meaty story. I'm too easily distracted into a tangent to focus on the big picture of a plot line...I would forget what I was writing about. That's why I'm sticking to children's picture books: short, simple, yet fulfilling- plus I can illustrate them!

Yes, ma'am! I do understand...and your attention span is about to become shorter and shorter the more mobile that baby becomes. It's not easy....but sooooo worth it! = )
