ONLY THE STRONG SURVIVE

 

                    "The Sweet Melissa Memoir Series" 


Book six of "THE SWEET MELISSA MEMOIR SERIES" will be out sometime in September 2017!  GOD WILLING!  That is my personal goal anyway.  I have already designed the cover and I am about a fifth of the way through.  Surprisingly, book six is the most difficult one to write.  The events are current(2004-2011), or should I say more current than the other books, but there are a lot of intimate and painful details and memories.  I have been trying to keep those buried deep in the back of my mind but it is time to release them.     I hope you are enjoying the series so far, and book six will be the final book.  I have plenty of other projects after this!  My writing career is far from over.  It has just begun!  

I love to hear feedback and appreciate your reviews.  I was brought to tears the other day when a "mother" of an "addicted daughter" thanked me for writing my story.  She told me that it has helped her understand her daughters struggle and that it has given her hope.  

Addicts can and do change!  Cravings do go away!  You have to choose what is more important.  Don't take the easy road and continue to use.  Don't be lazy. As each day passes things will get easier.  They do. When you realize that life is wonderful with a clear mind, and when the trust you have lost is regained, you will see that there is no drug that can make you feel that good.  You have to stop blocking good things from entering your life. Don't restrict yourself to a limited life that will only end with you in jail or dead.  There is so much more out there.  So many wonderful things.  Do it now before it's too late.  Time passes quickly and one day you will wake up and say "How did I get this old? Where did my life go?" Reach out and ask for help now. TODAY. That is not weakness.  It is strength, and only the strong survive.

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! ...

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.

Reinventing My Book Series “Sweet Melissa” with Editing Assistance from AI

 AI is Everywhere  Artificial Intelligence is everywhere now a days and we might as well utilize it for what it’s worth.  I am in the process of reinventing my memoir series and in addition to that, I will be adding a seventh book.  After I have finished all of this (I need a steady income) I will be starting my second screenplay and it will be based on my book series. It will be based on true life experiences.  My first script “The Mark” is just about in preproduction and I am so excited about that! When time allows, I will be writing the book for my first feature film.  This is all so exciting and I am working like crazy! In between all of this, bills and rent still need to be paid. I never ask anyone for anything for free, but I do have an eBay store susieeisus and I offer lots of discounts on a variety of items. Please check out my store. You don’t know how much I would appreciate it.  Life is overwhelming sometimes. And sometimes it grabs a hold o...
