A DREAM STILL WAITING TO BE FULFILLED

 Wanting to retire, I knew I had to find something to occupy my time each day; I wound up deciding to write a romance novel.

However, I knew I could write nonfiction due to my weekly writing viewpoints for a community newspaper for a few years. Although that might have been the truth, it didn't help my desire to write any romance novel since it would writing fiction. The writing of anything fictional requires a different set of rules than writing nonfiction. So, even with this obstacle facing me, I'd persevered to write my debut romance novel, a YA Paranormal romance, entitled "I Kissed a Ghost."

My writing of this debut novel didn't come easily, as I got confronted repeatedly by the common ailment of all authors, known as writer's block. Yielding into this ailment is something I didn't want to deal with, and then luckily, I found a remedy in a now-defunct website where followers got asked to write a five-sentence story for the week's prompt word.

Moving forwards with an array of close to 100 of these flash fiction stories already written, I decided to write a few more and publish my second book, entitled "Micro Fiction – An Anthology," containing 100 of these stories.

Originally, I had planned to start writing my next story; however, I wanted to improve my writing by reading/reviewing books written by other authors, first romance, and then other genres. Unexpectedly, I got hooked on my writing book reviews, and my writing new endeavors took a backseat. Notably, by 2019 I had become a decently ranked reviewer on Amazon for a broad spectrum of genres and becoming a TOP CONTRIBUTOR for True Crime books. Things happen for a reason, and this year, my book reviews concentration shifted towards my writing them for nonfiction Christian books.

Aching to write another romance, with all the nonfiction Christian books I had reviewed and was still reviewing, I got inspired to write it has a YA/NA Christian romance, which I did, and gave it the title of "It Had Only Been a Game." Initially, I had planned only to write a single book, but I resorted to writing short stories and essays around a single word with writer's block creeping my writing again. Each one has a Christian element to it.

Now, with my first two Christian books published, I got inspired to start my Christian blog "Trying to Be a Good Christian Woman" and a Facebook group for my Christian sisters, "Worldwide Christian Women United."

Now, being asked, "WHAT'S MY MOUNTAIN?" or what dream do I possess that hasn't gotten fulfilled yet, my answer would be a New York Times best-selling author.

SIX SENTENCE STORIES - NOXIOUS


I’ve recently found a website where each Wednesday the site creator, Mike Jackson, gives his readers a prompt from which they’re to write a six sentence story from, the prompt word for this week is NOXIOUS, and the following is my story endeavor.

IT ONLY TAKES A PERSON WHO CARES
TO CHANGE THINGS FOR THE BETTER

NO one could have ever imagined that untalented Gloria would decide to start playing any musical instrument, let alone the xylophone.
Xylophone playing became a passion that she couldn’t rest doing every chance she could.
Instead of producing beautifully sweet harmonic tunes on it, she would up creating tunes that were simply awful.
Ordinary no one would have dared to tell her that her tunes had been so bad, that one might describe them as being NOXIOUS in the way they sounded.
Usually, in cases like these, silence might have proven to be golden, as to say something to Gloria would have quickly decimated any self-esteem she might have had.
Suzanne, a close friend, and a renowned xylophone player luckily, decided to take her under her tutelage to transform Gloria into the decent xylophone she’s become today.

I would have to read everyone’s responses to what I’ve written here.

SIX SENTENCE STORIES = FANDANGLE


JENNYGAYLE TAKES HOME THE GRAND PRIZE

For all practical purposes, JennyGayle always imagined she was talented.
ANd perhaps she was.
DAily she could be seen in the spare bedroom in her luxury condo apartment working away at creating knick-knacks she wanted to sell at the annual artist event in her town.
No one ever thought she would ever decide to enter one of the judging contests, let alone the one for handmade curios, but she did.
Gregarious as she usually was, today, JennyGayle acted quite timid and shy as the judges started to carefully examine each item to determine the winner of the Grand Prize.
LEtting nothing pass her sight, she watched as the four judges huddle in a far corner discussing what they’ve seen, and as they paraded with the massive trophy, she became astonished when they stopped at her table and placed the trophy on it for having created the best FANDANGLE they’ve ever seen.

MY PRAYER


Given the transformation that has occurred in my life, I want to share my prayer to our Lord and Savior.

Oh, my Lord, my Heavenly Father, it appears that you've made me a tool in a divine plan of your making.

Starting last year, you cause me to change the mixture of the various genres of books I've read/reviewed since August of 2014. You caused me in 2019 to read/review about 45% of the 260+ books I wrote reviews for to be nonfiction Christian books, which were well received, especially by the book's various authors who all loved the scriptures I had included in my reviews for their books. These scriptures perfectly match the intention of their scriptures that I only could have included with your divine guidance. Guidance for which I'm grateful to have received.

Reading all of these nonfiction Christian books concerning the Greatness of your holy words caused me to forsake most of my secular writing endeavors and to write my first Christian romance [the genre in which I write most of my secular endeavors for]. As with all authors, I succumbed to the condition known as writer's block. Suffering from writer's block inspired me to do what I've done previously as a secular romance author, which had been to write a short story in response to a prompt word. However, this time, instead of writing stories that are only five sentences long, I got inspired to write more substantial short stories and essays related to the Christian faith. To write these stories, you, my divine Savior, gave me my needed inspiration as the dream you've caused me to dream, a dream that I remembered long enough to write the story on my computer. The marvelous transformation you've planned for me began to take hold, as I recognized these dreams as you speaking to me as an apparent obedient daughter.

Your guidance, my Holy Benefactor, caused me to seek out assistance to aid me in perfecting my writing ability. Now, with my story writing completed, your fantastic guidance gave me books to publish and release four days before my birthday on January 11 of 2020.

You, in your heavenly wisdom, my two published books have caused me to create a Christian blog called, "Trying to Be a Good Christian Woman," where I can profess and share my faith about your glory to the world each day. First here
http://www.RLMorgan1951.blogspot.com   but due to issues of individuals not being able to become a follower I've moved my blog over to http://RLMorgan1951.wordpress.com

Creating the blog then inspired me to create a Christian Facebook for my worldwide "sisters" to share our faith with each other, as well as to seek out our "sisterhood" in those times we need to receive support and prayers.
"Worldwide Christian Women United"

Lord, you can see the work I've been doing in your divine name, so would it spoil your plan for me, if I would get the number of blog followers I desire to have, or having more "sisters" joining the Christian "sisterhood" I have on Facebook. Patience is a virtue I know, so can I at least get a sign of what I need to do next to fulfill my dreams.

Your servant.

R.L. [Robin Leigh] Morgan

STATUS REPORT #158


I know it’s been a while since my last post, but considering what’s been happening, I didn’t have anything to say.

With the COVID-19 virus coinciding with the release of my first two Christian fiction books and what's in my prayer to the Lord, I'd stopped working on all of my writing endeavors. And now, I'm once again back completing my two endeavors, which I'd love to finish in time for Christmas. However, in checking for the sales of all of my endeavors, KINDLE indicated there's an issue with one of my books, "I Kissed a Ghost." Once I've resolved the issue, it's back to earnestly working on these two books. Here's the link for my debut Christian fiction books that I've written as R.L.Morgan: 

I've just begun writing my third Christian fiction endeavor, which is going to be another collection of 50 Christian short stories and essays. I would love for those of you who are of the Christian faith to check out the two Christian books I've published; both books are only $2.99 KINDLE or read for free as a K.U. [KINDLE Unlimited]

If you're interested in knowing about what's happening with me and my involvement with the Christian faith, read my next post, "MY PRAYER."

Have a BLESSED WEEK with whatever you're going to be doing !!! 😊 😊 😊

BESEECHING YOUR KIND ASSISTANCE


It started innocently enough as I began to read/review books from a variety of genres in August of 2014. Eventually, I became a TOP CONTRIBUTOR on Amazon for True Crime books. In 2018, I began to read nonfiction Christian books which, I thought nothing of since to me at that time it had been another genre of books. However, in 2019 my involvement with these books increase to my having read/reviewed about 45% of the 264 book reviews I wrote.


It had been during this time that my enthrallment with these books inspired me to write 2 Christian books of my own as R. L. Morgan, to separate them from the secular books I’ve written as Robin Leigh Morgan. Shortly afterward, I felt the need inside to do more regarding my involvement with the Christian faith, especially when you consider that by the end of January, the number of nonfiction Christian I had written was approaching 80% of all of my reviews. And on February 5, 2020, I made the uplifting spiritual experience by starting my Christian blog site called, “Trying to Be a Good Christian Woman,” where I started posting a Daily Scripture Reflection.   
http://www.RLMorgan1951.blogspot.com

[If you have a problem connecting to my blog, it might be because you’re using CHROME as your browser. Then go to and click on “Read My Blog” at:


Along with these reflections, I began posting the reviews I wrote for nonfiction Christian books.

Then came the sudden onslaught of the COVID-19 virus, and I needed to do more for my followers and my “sisters and brothers” of the Christian faith. Which is why on February 17, 2020, I decided to start posting a mini Christian service each Sunday, consisting of a:

Scripture Reflection
Supplication to the Lord
Christian Hymn/Song

The thing that is frustrating me the most, considering the person I’ve become in regards to the faith, is that I don’t have the number of followers I would love to have given the work I’ve been doing. Which is the reason why I’m imploring everyone reading this to please consider becoming a follower of my blog and let us share the Christian faith together.

THANKS for your time in reading what I’ve written here, and have a MOST BLESSED DAY with your families !!! 😊 😊 😊

BTW – If anyone reading this happens to be a “sister,” then you’re invented to check out my Christian Facebook group, “Worldwide Christian Women United.”

CALLING ALL CHRISTIAN WOMEN

On Sundays I also offer a supplication to the Lord, as well as a Christian song/hymn to complete a short service to the Lord. I also post my reviews for nonfiction Christian books.

NO - I'M NOT A MINISTER !!!


I recently received an intriguing new message under my Christian Facebook account, as R.L.Morgan, from an unknown individual praising me for the work they’ve read on my Christian blog and even called me Ms. Minister. While I felt being highly praised by this comment, I’m by no means a minister.  I don’t have a flock of followers on this my Christian blog site, nor have I gotten any substantial amount friends on my Christian Facebook account or followers on my Christian Twitter account. Links for all of my social media sites can be gotten the bottom of:


And if you click on the “Read My Blog” button below the photo, you’ll be taken to my Christian blog, where I hope you’ll decide to become a follower.

My involvement with the Christian faith the way it is today came about by accident. As a voracious book reviewer of a multitude of genres from Children’s books with those thick pages to hot, steamy, erotic novels, I’ve read them all. I’m even a TOP CONTRIBUTOR for True Crime books on Amazon.

While I’ve read a small handful of Christian type sweet romances going back to the beginning of my reading/reviewing books, my reading the nonfiction ones started in earnest in 2018. In 2019, 118 of the 264 books [almost 45%] I’d read/reviewed had been for nonfiction Christian books, and this year [2020], they account for 41 of the 50 reviews [82%] I’ve written have been for these books. Here is the link to all of my reviews on Amazon:


There’s no way anyone can read this many books, without something happening in their lives, and I’m no different. I now can’t seem to get enough of these books to review, and it has also manifested itself in my having created the Christian blog I now have.

I still feel like the same person I had been yesterday, with one exception. When I happen to see scripture getting posted in any of the Christian Facebook groups I belong to, I now tend to respond with an authoritative scripture response of my own. Perhaps this is why the person I’d receive the anonymous message from had called me, Ms. Minister. 

I would love to have anyone who is a Christian to follow me on my Christian site and to leave their comments as we share the Faith.

Let us all beseech the Lord for His intervention at this time; and let us meditate on NUMBERS 6:24-26.

STATUS REPORT #157


With dwindling sales of my two books, I've slowed down the writing of my two current endeavors as Robin Leigh Morgan and all of my other endeavors, so there's nothing to report, so I haven't done any postings in a long while.

My reviewing of books has also slowed down, and my getting enthralled by nonfiction Christian books is continuing as this year so far 41 out of the 50 books [82%] have been for these books. If anyone is interested in these books of any of my 1300+ reviews here is the link, I hope that reading them might be able to assist you in finding your next book to read or to give as a gift:



It's the beginning of a new month, time once again to start promoting the sale of my two books. I do wish individuals will buy some copies as it will give me an encouraging sign I should continue to write them as I'm not getting any younger, being 69 years young already. If anyone is interested here's the link to both of my books:


Both of my books are available as a paperback, and the KINDLE version is only $2.99. This is a reasonable price when you consider what other authors are charging for their KINDLE books [almost as much as for a paperback copy]; also, both books are for FREE to read as a KU download.

I hope/pray that everyone who is reading this, and their families, are well and not suffering from the dreaded COVID-19 virus.

STATUS REPORT #156

It has taken me to become an author of two Christian books to decide to use a photo to present who I am. I chose to use R.L.Morgan as the name for my Christian endeavors so I can easily separate them from every else I do as Robin Leigh Morgan.

My Christian blog has been up for a month already and I've found there's an issue connecting to it when I give out the URL address for it. I've finally figured out how to get around the issue, I created an About.me account for my Christian endeavors at http://www.about.me/R.L.Morgan, once there just click on the "Read My Blog" button below the photo I've chosen to present who I am there.

I love doing the Christian posts I do on a daily basis for a Daily Scripture Reflection, I also post copies of the reviews I've done for nonfiction Christian books. In addition, on Sundays, I'm now posting a YouTube video of a Christian hymn/song, a supplication to the Lord. And I'd love for everyone "sister" and "brother" to check this blog and hopefully decide to become a follower.

Doing the above has caused me to forego working on the two secular romance I'm writing as Robin Leigh Morgan; which I don't mind since I'm unfortunately not selling copies of two books I've already published.

Being retired for 10 years and being a senior citizen who is 69 years young doing the above is keeping my mind active; otherwise, I'd have nothing to do except staying home with my dear OH of 26 years, watching television, going to the nearby senior center for lunch, etc. REMEMBER a mind is a terrible thing to waste.

STATUS REPORT #155 - REASON FOR MY DELAY IN DOING ANY POSTS HERE


Last year my reviewing of books changed in regards to the genres of a book I wrote reviews. My concentration shifted from doing a wide variety of types of books to my having read/reviewed 118 out of the 263 books I wrote about [almost 45%] belonging to the genre of nonfiction Christian books. And as far as 2020 is concerned, so far 29 out the 35 books [nearly 83%] have been for nonfiction Christian books. You can read these 29 reviews on my Christian blog at https://rlmorgan1951.blogspot.com/search/label/NONFICTION%20CHRISTIAN%20BOOK%20REVIEWS

Each post for these reviews has a link to my review on Amazon, which gives you the links to buy the book. I

Reading so many books belong to this genre led me to write not one but two Christian books as R. L. Morgan
https://www.amazon.com/R-L-Morgan/e/B084G8JQP3

You’re invited to check these books out, and if anyone is interested in reading three excerpts from each book, you can find them on my Christian blog site that I started shortly after my publishing both books on January 11, 2020:
https://rlmorgan1951.blogspot.com/search/label/MY%20CHRISTIAN%20WRITING%20ENDEAVORS

While you are there, feel free to check out the rest of the posts I’m regularly doing, feel free to comment on my posts.  I would love for any Christian reading this, to please consider becoming a follower of my blog.

I’m in the slow process of transferring my secular FaceBook personae to my Christian personae at:  
https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100047543203840

I never excepted for my Christian internet personae to wind up taking so much of my time that my secular personae haven’t had any time to work on my internet presence or work on any of my earthly endeavors, but it has.

I now need to start promoting the two books I’ve written as Robin Leigh Morgan
https://www.amazon.com/Robin-Leigh-Morgan/e/B00BWXT4VU

I also need to return to writing my two current secular endeavors; however, I won’t be able to publish either one unless I get enough royalties to pay for a cover design.

So, in the meantime, I wish ALL of my followers here on this blog to have a GREAT WEEK with whatever you’re going to be doing !!! 😊 😊 😊

THINGS ARE CHANGING AROUND HERE

If you noticed yesterday I had moved the new Christian feature I've recently started here to my new Christian blog site. Today, I've taken each of the 23 entire reviews I've precisely written and posted on Amazon for nonfiction Christian books, and place now posted them on my Christian BlogSpot site under the following category there:

WHY A DAILY SCRIPTURE REFLECTION POST???

Those of you who know me, know that I’m a rather voracious book reviewer, especially when it comes to nonfiction Christian books. In 2019, 118 of the 263 books I’d reviewed [about 45%] were for books belonging to this genre. This year, so far, the count is 20 out of 24 [about 83%] for the same genre. You’re invited to check my reviews out here:
https://tinyurl.com/y83l8h4m

You also know that reviewing all books had caused me to be inspired to write my first two Christian books with some guidance by the Lord, as R.L. Morgan, to separate them from my other secular endeavors.
https://www.amazon.com/R-L-Morgan/e/B084G8JQP3

The last item in my “Christian Short Stories & Essays” is my testimony THANKING the Lord for His guidance [usually as a dream] in writing my first two Christian endeavors.

It has been 25 days since the release of my first two Christian books, and according to the internet, the number 25 in the Bible symbolizes 'grace upon grace.' It is composed of 20 (meaning redemption) and five (grace) or grace multiplied (5 x 5).  It has been seven days since I had the pleasure of posting my review for Donna E. Lane’s “Wilderness Meditations: 40 Devotions for Lent, Fasting, and Spiritual Growth,”
https://www.amazon.com/review/R4IPSTD7TI21N

The reason she had in writing her book has inspired me to do a daily posting of scripture for those that follow my blog here on BlogSpot.com since I can conveniently have my followers find all of my scripture posts in one location, and then to leave their responses; after they’ve reflected on the scripture post for the day.

THEY'RE FINALLY LIVE !!!


TO ALL MY “SISTERS” and “BROTHERS” and LOVERS OF CHRISTIAN BOOKS

My desire to publish my first two debut Christian books has finally occurred, although I’d have loved for them to have been ready in time for Christmas. Perhaps the Lord has caused the delay so they would become available in time for my 69th birthday on Wednesday, possibly in return for all the nonfiction Christian books, I’ve been reading/reviewing that have glorified His words and His name for the past 18 months.

The two books are:

“It Had Only Been a Game”
A YA/NA Christian romance.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083S1L3X8

“Christian Short Stories & Essays”
An anthology of 50 Christian Short Stories and Essays, with each one getting written around a prompt word. The last item in the book is my testimony about the Lord guiding/supporting me as I endeavored to write these two books.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083S26NX8

Both books are available as a KINDLE for $2.99 or can read for FREE as a KU [KINDLE Unlimited] download.

I would love for everyone to check out my two new endeavors as an author of Christian books, and hopefully, purchase a copy for yourselves or to give as a gift. I would love to write more or these books; however, I’ve still got two romance manuscripts that I been working for almost two years that I’d like to complete first.

One of my yet unfulfilled desires is to become a New York Times Best Selling author, perhaps one of these two books will make it happen.  

PSALM 118:24

STATUS REPORT # 154


As we begin another year, I want to increase the amount of nonfiction Christian books I’ll be reading/reviewing. Last year, 118 of the 263 [about 45%] I had reviewed had been for these books. And with the first week of the new year already passed, I see myself being able to reach this goal since 6 of the 9 [66.67%] of the books I’ve done so far all belong to this genre.

In regards to my two debut Christian endeavors, I’ve made unbelievable progress, primarily since I’ve obtained permission from the NKJV [New King James Version] publisher to use verses from their bible and what I need to do for it in my books. As soon as I got their permission, I immediately made sure all of the verses I’d used for my collection of 40 Christian short stories and essays all came from their NKJV bible. I then followed this by completing the copyright, bio, listing of my books and endeavors and the acknowledgment pages. All that is left is for me to publish the book on KINDLE, which I’m holding off due to progress I’m making with my debut YA/NA Christian romance, “It Had Only Been a Game.”

Thanks to a dream I recently had, I came to the realization I only need one more chapter to finish writing the book, which I’m doing tonight [1/9/20]. Luckily, I’ve already checked the editing of the book’s entire manuscript using Grammarly, which has gotten turned on as I continue to write. With the completion of the writing of this book, Friday, I can add the same introductory pages I had in my first book [with necessary revisions for this book], and then create the cover page for the book.

With all this happening, I’ll be able to witness the fulfillment of my dream of having both books becoming available to celebrate my birthday on Wednesday, January 15th.  While I’m disappointed that I couldn’t have completed my two books in time for the holidays, perhaps this is the way and when the Lord had planned for me to release my two debut Christian books.

If anyone knows of a Christian nonfiction book with less than ten reviews and available as an Amazon KU or for free, please advise me. Also, if anyone is interested in interviewing for their website or blog, please send me a message through my FaceBook account.
