LETTERS FROM PRISON

EMOTIONAL and DRAINING

I am in the midst of WRITING the final book of my "SWEET MELISSA" memoir series. I have come to the PART where I am writing a letter HOME to my PARENTS. Fortunate for me, my MOTHER saved ALL of my letters that I had written to her. Unfortunate for me, MY letters from HER were DESTROYED due to multiple CELL searches over the YEARS. It is so STRANGE to read letters that I had written 13 years ago. My INSECURITY and LOW SELF-ESTEEM became even more apparent to me. My IMPULSIVE nature and my NEED to fit in. I have GROWN so much over the YEARS yet I am having a DIFFICULT time writing because the SHAME, the LOSS, and the CRYING is totally DRAINING me.

AGAIN, GIVE IT UP! THE PAST IS THE PAST! MOVE ON! NO MORE TEARS! I CAN DO THIS! HERE ME ROAR! IT'S MY TIME TO SHINE!

That is just a little PEP talk and we ALL need it sometime! Keep going, stay POSITIVE and MOTIVATED because no one is going to DO IT FOR YOU! WORK HARD and DREAM BIG!
Love, Peace, and Happiness-Susan

The American Opioid Epidemic and Mental Illness

Someone Like Me-Is there a connection between addiction and mental illness? I say there is! Some people say that addiction is a choice, but I know for a fact that it’s not. Mental illness plays a big part in a persons decision making process and lifestyle choices. I am now in the middle of writing my 7th book and I will explain in detail how my chemically imbalanced mind thinks and reacts. Well, at least how mine did before treatment anyway! Sure, I am no pro and I am not a doctor, but I have a genuine real life experience and a story to tell. I hope that you will open your mind to the possibility, or shall I say the reality, that addiction is indeed a disease and not a choice.

Behind Blue Eyes

Book Seven will be out soon! I have an editor now and everything is going as planned, just a bit behind schedule. I am going to expose a certain something that I didn’t intentionally leave out of my other books. I think that you will find it interesting and as always, I hope to inspire and help at least one person.

My Name is Susie and I’m a Comma Addict

Editing a manuscript is like editing your life! Search for the mistakes and fix them! Book One of The Sweet Melissa Memoir Series has been revised! No worries! I’m sure it has plenty of commas stuck in the wrong place! It also has dialogue and a more descriptive value including what? EMOTION,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,#Recovery #Adiction #OneDayAtATime If you need to hire an editor/life coach then do it! If you’re stubborn like me and you want to do it alone, then be prepared for the criticism. Go through the pages of your manuscript/life one word at a time. Find an easy flow. Don’t make it complicated with terms you don’t understand and ask for help when you can. There’s one thing I’ve found to be true, and that’s putting comma’s in the right place. I habitually overuse them . I guess they are my “NEW DRUG of CHOICE” and sometimes I follow my own rules of punctuation. If I need a pause or a break, I shove one in! I am a comma addict, but I’m
