Lisa J. Michaels: June 2008
http://wscribbles.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
A Little about Lisa. Sunday, June 15, 2008. Little Things" = Evolution. It's amazing how every little thing you do counts. You may not know it at the time, but it always comes back around. Sometimes it's subtle, sometimes it smacks you upside the head. But it always returns, every little thing. I'm becoming more aware of this fact every day. I find myself chosing my words more carefully. They don't come flying out of my mouth anymore, like they did when I was. Now,I come prepared. It's good to have you o...

Lisa J. Michaels: April 2008
http://wscribbles.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
A Little about Lisa. Friday, April 25, 2008. Time to say goodbye. It's been a while since my last entry. Time is more precious than I realized. I discovered this when I made the choice to honor a parent by caring for her in her final days. When I made this decision, I was ignorant of what it meant and how it would change me. I had no idea of the immensity of my promise. Promising to care for a dying person is more than just holding their hand, although that's important too. It's about standing up for...

http://wscribbles.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
A Little about Lisa. Wednesday, October 29, 2008. For the past month, I've had the privileged of giving drawing/art instruction to Natalie, a very talented, 6-year-old, self proclaimed artist. I'd like to share a conversation we had at our last lesson. Natalie: "I noticed somethin'.". Me: "And what's that Natalie? Natalie: "I noticed these lesson's keep getting harder."(sigh). Me: "Uh-ha, that's correct, you're very bright Natalie.". Natalie: "So how come? How come they're getting harder? I look for the ...

http://wscribbles.blogspot.com/2013/05/newly-released.html
A Little about Lisa. Wednesday, May 15, 2013. My newest book has been released for purchase on Amazon. And I'm so excited! I worked really hard on it, giving it my best-ever effort and I think it paid off. The book printed beautifully, with bright, colorful pages throughout.

I can honestly say that I am proud to be associated with this work. Have you been f...

Lisa J. Michaels: Agent or Publisher?
http://wscribbles.blogspot.com/2012/04/agent-or-publisher.html
A Little about Lisa. Tuesday, April 17, 2012. If you're somehow involved in the publishing business, and you're not aware of the social media website known as "Linked in". You're missing out on a great thing. Linked in allows you to. Ask questions on just about any subject. And get answers and debates (sometimes heated) almost immediately. Sure there are other sites that are set up the same, but there's something different. Going on over at Linked in, that keeps pulling me back day after day. B: You have...

Lisa J. Michaels: September 2008
http://wscribbles.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
A Little about Lisa. Thursday, September 25, 2008. It's interesting to think that it took someone, a stranger half-way around the world, to inspire me to end my self imposed exile from writing. Not that I hadn't thought about it. It's just that lately, I've been very aware of the time consumed by. It's in those moments that I wonder if the writer realized or cared about my time? Precious, yet we so easily give it away. Something to your life! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The Rantings and Revelations of a ...

Lisa J. Michaels: The Power of Friendship
http://wscribbles.blogspot.com/2013/08/the-power-of-friendship.html
A Little about Lisa. Wednesday, August 21, 2013. The Power of Friendship. It wasn't all that long ago when I was in a jam.a real pickle if you know what I mean. As most of my friends know, I was REALLY sick. Nothing, nada, ZIPPITY-DO-DA! I needed three thousand dollars worth of surgery immediately, and I simply had no way of getting it. Emergency rooms turned me away. Doctors refused to treat me. I am not dramatizing the situation, it was indeed very dire. In the days that followed, I received over half ...

Lisa J. Michaels: Dear Self-Publishing Author
http://wscribbles.blogspot.com/2013/01/for-over-decade-now-ive-sat-on-both.html
A Little about Lisa. Tuesday, January 29, 2013. For over a decade now, I've sat on both sides of the fence. I'm both an author and an illustrator. It's been extremely uncomfortable! As a paid critiquing author. I'm constantly asked for advice on how to find and deal with elusive illustrators. As a professional illustrator. I'm asked for advice on how to deal with new and often demanding, self-publishing authors. Today, a new author I'd recently critiqued, sweetly and naively asked;. You never want to ins...
