I have finished my first novel!!!

I'm hoping for this one. :) Could you tell me the title of the book?

Dear Isabel is the title of my first book.The other one I am writing is entitled Nobody will know my name.

Thanks for your nice words. Actually, I have been writing all my life but last summer I start thinking about publishing something. So I am here: still writing but wanting to share my ideas and thoughts with others one day or another.

I am Italian,too. Nice to meet you. I am trying to publish my book...let's say in the classical way...then..then I will see and decide if publish it only online. I was also thinking about reading it aloud and making an audiobook file...

good words are never late!!! thanks

dear tess thanks for being so kind. I know there are places where you can publish your book online, but for some reason this year I decided I wanted to be read and published after having been writing and writing for my eyes only for all these years. So I am trying and seeing what happens. I am writing a new book, a better one I think, and while writing I will be waiting and see if somebody loves my first little book that is a sort of joke for me.

that's very nice of you and reading such a comment in the morning: what a good way to start one's day. Have a nice day, too and I hope this project of mine will be successful and I promise to share with you any news!!!

thank you, i would really want to know any news from it...i am pretty sure that you're gonna be successful on it...just stay positive and pray...anything can happen if you just believe...i hope everything will be well with you...have a beautiful, blessed day to U...may GOD shower U & UR family with so much blessings, good life, lots of love, happiness, and with good health today and always!!!

thanks for your nice words. At the moment my novel is available only in Italian, but I have in mind to translate it one day or another...maybe I will come here and ask somebody to help me with my English!!!

my dear friend, I am happy to read from you again. I am very busy so I am not here as much as I would like to. This is just my idea: translating it into English one day or another in order to try to publish it in English. The fact is that I haven't made up my mind yet. Have it translated by someone else or try translating it on my own and then asking only for proofreading? I will think about it. The fact is that I am on my way towards another novel. I have written many pages and I am carrying them with me during my Easter holidays. I hope to have enough time to read them, give them an order and see what else to write and create. I am so thrilled. Of course I promise to come here and post any news.. I am writing a lot this period. Just finished a poem I am very satisfied with. It is dedicated to my new dance mates..I have to find time to tell you about my new dance classes. and maybe I can translate my poem into English and have your opinions.

wow. Congratulations to both of you. I hope one day to have my book and books published. I will try to have them published by others. Otherwise..well I will try online or something else.

I listen to Italian tapes and I can now understand basic Italian..:)

Are you serious? Are you leaving Chicago? Wow...what a news...well of course I strongly recommend Italy, he he!!! It would be beautiful meet here! And in Rome the weather is so wonderful and the town...well it is superb!!!! And congratulations on your Italian. It was well written even though we prefer to say...Non parlo bene italiano!!! Hear from you soon.

Writing this book was very important for me and this is my first pleasure. Now I am looking forward for a second pleasure: publishing it!!! This thing is much more difficult even though it really doesn't matter. I am still writing and enjoying it a lot.....keep fingers crossed for me. P.S. Love the new picture you chose as your avatar!!!

I have always been writing but this is the first time that I decided to write for others and the first time I am trying to have my work published. I enjoyed writing this novel a lot and I hope it will give something to any single reader...

Publishing the book is just an attempt..a hope and a desire. It can add pleasure to the pleasure of writing. But of course nobody and nothing will rob me of the inner significance of the act of writing itself.

thanks for your support. Let's hope for the best.

thanks for your support. this is my first book. I have always been writing poems, or thoughts or little stories but this time I had the idea and the urge to tell this story....

the first one is called: Picking up the pieces: a woman's journey and it is my life story the second is a novel called: Angels Watching over me you can buy both books online at the publishers, and amazon.com

Have you? Congratulations!!! What are the titles?? And can I see the hardcover somewhere??..What do you write about? Let me know something more about your writing.

are you still writing? Congratulations. I am going on amazon and having a look at your books.

Oh Maribea, I am so happy about your book. I really want to buy an English version. Please do let me know. It's very good to know that you are happy accomplishing your goals and love of life. I know how passionate you are about your writing and I wish you luck in everything you do. Thanks for appreciating the article on AC. John Keats is my fave poet. Hoping to write another articles regarding famous correspondences. Love and hugs. You take care and do lemme know when you meet your Mr. Right!! (I still regret not having a brother of my own)

my dear mimpi I have just read your article about Keat's love letters. I was so intrigued!!! I don't know much about this and seeing that I love writing letters and correspondence I am planning to go further in the study and reading of this wonderful correspondence!!! By the way my book is about the correspondence about two friends...so we have still much in common: we both love correspondence!!!

oh yes I hope to find enough time for the translation!!!

my dear friend I am so happy to read from you. I have first to publish my book and then think of it becoming a success!!! Anyway, writing it was such a pleasure to me that I have already my reward. I only hope to publish it in order to share a part of me with others. Isabella is the exact name in Italian even though in my book I preferred to write the title like this: Cara Isabel because I have a friend that I call Annabel even though her name is Annabella and so I wrote Isabel when deciding the name of the character!!! Of course Isabella is a wonderful name!!!!

so Isabella is inspiring many people...how cool!!

Isabella and every variation of it is a beautiful name! Isabel is the name of my main character for my current novel in progress. Again, best wishes...

Keep everything crossed!!! Of course I will post any updates if any. Let's hope for the best

Indeed, I got my pleasure and my prize...but of course I am still here hoping for new and better news...I am dreaming and my dreams are so big!
