DARK FACADE - PART 19

I'M TEARING MY FREAKING HAIR OUT OVER HERE!!!!

This stupid thing
wouldn't post for the life of it and I .....

(breathing deeply,
breathing deeply, breathing deeply.)

Okay, this is the last one and
I'm so sorry for taking for long.

I'm trying to figure out also
which story to post next. Can I get a show of hands (emails or comments, SMARTY
PANTS) on whose read Stealing innocence one and two?

Other wise, I
might just wing it.

Don't forget my car fund guys. Even if
you don't want to buy a book, just make a donation at my website and I'll still
send you a free book in the mail. wink wink.

Dark Facade - Author Interuption

Okay, I'm going to post one more, but THAT'S IT! (no more death threats - and that goes for family members too, LOL.)

Sorry I've been out of it this week, but like i said I've been concentrating on finishing up the book (which is going very well) and then I have my November writers conference.

I should let you know for all the Metro Detroiters, in September I'll be at the following locations signing books for Stone's Revenge and Stealing Innocence

Stones Revenge Booksigning - September 18th - Southfield Public Library

Stealing Innocence Booksigning - September 22nd - Barnes and Noble Downtown Detroit

Those that show up and get a book, I'll take two dollars off the cover price off on any book they buy off my website when they email me the secret pass word I'll give them with paypal.com.

I'm going to the selfpublishing conference today at the Marriott in Southfield. I'll be there tomorrow. I'll be there signing books and doing an Internet Marketing Workshop. (I'll make sure I mention all of you in my blog discussion, LOL).

I'll post Tuesday Morning before 10am and then that's it! Chapter 19 was really hard for me cause it took a lot to hurt Maxine cause i liked her a lot.

Dark Facade - Part 18

THIS ARE THE COMMENTS I POSTED TO THE LAST BLOG ADDRESSING CONCERNS FROM A READER:
I was wondering when someone would say something negative. I thought in the beginning this was a crazy stupid idea and that someone would just say Sylvia, have you lost your mind.I knew going into this, someone would say why are these chicks putting up with this shit. And i asked myself the same questions too. They're all going to come back, next week, but why? Nicole does explain in further chapters, when Maxine wants out, the mentality of it all. And i think the dancer in the room explained it a little too in part 18. You're black, on aid or working from paycheck to paycheck. The opportunity to be lavished upon, revered and partly worship for two days out the week with money and materials is a prominent offer. Some will put up with the "crap" in order to receive rewards, because what else is there in their lives short of selling themselves or receiving punishment from men that are suppose to care for them. One person I told the story to said it was wrong to write something like this, but in truth it really made a lot of sense and its almost scary that something like this could actually exist. She said, "If you're gonna treat me like shit, at least pay me for it. At least I know you're going to treat me like shit some time and I don't have to wait for some man to come stomp on my heart to know I have to pay for the stuff with an ass whooping."So that's why they stay. That's the reward they feel they get for enduring this. Some of the masters are nice, some of them aren't, but all of them give something in order to be apart of all of this.
I would also like to add that if the age of when my heroine lost her virginity is the only continuity flaw that you've found that bothers you, I think I should pat myself on the back because for a first draft that you're reading - no real editing has been done - I think that's pretty darn good! I don't know if most readers know that what you're reading is coming straight from my head and onto paper. That means yu're reading something that I go home every night and make up while I'm cooking for the kids, cleaning up my house, working on my other literary endeavors, trying to find a personal life, trying to sell a book, doing my other blog and getting at least four hours of sleep a night.With all the compliments I was getting, I think that this one mistake out of all the other mistakes i could have made can be easily corrected.

Dark Facade - Part 17


Just because I might post a couple of more,
even though I said i was gonna stop, but I feel so bad about everything.


When i woke this morning, I had rushed out the
door and forgotten the edits to this chapter so I had to sit at work and think
what had I added or changed or whatever. then i had to go cash my check and with
no car, I had to beg a ride from my mother.


So once I came back from lunch, I said I had to
get this out and then we got busy, so I ....


Oh hell, I finished it and reread it for
anything missing.


Enjoy and i'll talk to you guys next week. I'll
def. post two more and then we won't have any new postings until Sept, cause i
want to finish this baby up and get it over to the editor so we can rush this to
print for you guys that are interested.


If you are interested in ordering this book,
please go to my website order form and fill in the blanks where it says preorder
book request
http://SylviaHubbard.homestead.com/Order_Form.html


so without further ado.... Chapter
17.....Enjoy.......Your Author, Sylvia Hubbard

Dark Facade - Author Interuption Part 2

Please don't be mad at me.

I was planning on posting today and when i got to work to post, i
couldn't find my memory stick which has the entire book on it.


I looked everywhere and with no car, i couldn't run home for
lunch.


I'm soooooo sorry people.

I'll make sure i post tomorrow. I promise. I have the book on disk
at home and hopefully i can get it uploaded early early in the
morning.


I'm going to set my alarm now to awake at 4 in the morning to catch
the bus at five to get to work to post this chapter.


Anybody got a flashlight, cause ya'll know Detroit doesn't have
have any street light! LOL


In the mean time, if you guys want, I posted to my other blog, How To Love A
Black Woman
, which I've been neglecting because of Dark
Facade.

Dark Facade - Part 16

A publisher has approached me seriously with intentions to buy this story.
Of course that would mean finishing and that's what I had been busily doing
this weekend, although I'm not finished yet, but I should be done by the end
of this week.

I worked out the complexities (if that's a word) of the story this weekend
and with no car and no cable, trust me, you'd be surprise at the stuff I get
done as I sit at home with no entertainment except my growing collection of
DVD's and the lack of transportation. (That's why all of you should just buy a
book from me to donate to my car fund, LOL. Sistah tired of riding the bus with
her three kids, especially with school starting up.)

In any case, I'm going to post two more parts and then let you know
where you can pre-order the book. Most likely it will be on my
work in progress page and there'll be a paypal option for you to pay, even with credit
cards.

Thanks in advance to all of your comments, questions and
challenges.


Without further ado, please enjoy Part 16.....

Dark Facade - Part 14

Okay folks i really have to work on another website so I won't be able to
post til tomorrow. (No begging or death threats, LOL.) Please leave comments
though. I want to hear from you and what you think is going to happen.

Somebody asked me what the hell really happened to Lisa (these were the
emails exact words). They asked a million other questions too, but I didn't
answer them.

I'm just letting you guys know I do know what happened to her and you'll
figure it out soon enough cause y'alls is smart and all.

Also, someone else emailed me and asked why did I suddenly jump in Phillipe's head? Well, I couldn't have done it sooner. I was still pretty much setting up the story and i needed to keep him kind of out there until I knew you gals would be attracted to him. Phillipe's a complicated man and being in his head was really weird cause I've never been in a white man's head before. I know girls they're all the same, LOL, but my Phillipe's got a lot of things going on that I couldn't let you all know about so I had to be careful about when I decided to get in there.

I'm so excited cause this baby might be a full fledge novel and I haven't
done that in a year.

Enjoy and don't forget to comment. It makes me really happy!!!

What's really amazing is that I'm pumping this baby out really fast. I mean by the time I'm through I can brag that i did a novel in a month. A damn good one too, LMAO.

Dark Facade - Part 10




I was trying to give you this yesterday, but the time and life... whew! So much to do, so little time to do it, right?

BTW, I've got this new addiction. Arizona Sweet Tea. I
can't stop drinking these damn things. I think they've got some
addictive leaves in there. LOL.

Okay, now I give you, Part 10. I'm like writing morning,
noon and night and this might actually become a novel.
I'm at 30
,000 now and we're just getting to the good part.

And I'm just loving the comments folks. Thanks so much for taking this journey with me and Maxine.
