I wanted to put together a place where writers can unite, get to know one another, and share their passion for the art. The website will be update regularly, and will feature authors, excerpts from their work, reviews, and links to where books are sold. Also find interviews,
short fiction and hundreds of links and resources that span many genres.
This is really exciting for me because I've met so many
incredible people here. They have all shown me an amazing
amount of support as I walked that dark road to publication, and especially since
the disappointment of my publisher closing down last year
before the release of my debut novel, DAVID THORNE. Now I want to give
back. So kick up your heels, grab some coffee or tea or whatever
floats your biscuit and enjoy the ride. You are welcome to drop
in any time as my door is always open, here and on the official
Writers Together Website, as well as
on my own page here on Myspace,C. L. Freire.
A NOTE FROM ME TO YOU, MY DEAR AND CHERISHED FRIENDS
We as authors and artists
bring beauty to the world at large. We hold a great weight
upon our shoulders under this knowledge. And yet there are
days when we feel the burden of self-doubt and fear of rejection.
It with this thought in mind, as I too feel this way sometimes,
that I wanted to add the song, Faith of the Heart. It's a very
inspiring song. One we can all take into ourselves on those days
of fear and doubt. And know that one day all our dreams will come
true. And in honor of that impending moment, please check out the
blog post I put up about this very thing. I wanted to make the
link available always so no one will ever have to go looking for
inspiration, but merely click on the very words we should all live by:

AND NOW FOR A LITTLE SHAMELESS SELF PROMOTION
DAVID THORNE: The Golithian Orbs is an edgy, 'tween fantasy.
Twelve-year-old, David Thorne never dreamed cities could be made of magic.
He never thought it possible that people could fly around on discs shaped like dragons, talk into
cell phones made of water, or float along on sidewalks that sit thousands of feet in the air.
Never did he expect that beyond his mirror waited a world where enchanted cars could fly on
their own, where television screens could be made of waterfalls and hover over a city wherein
anything is possible. And never did he expect, when he stumbled upon that world, that he would
not be accepted, that he would be feared by every citizen, and that he would be hunted by the
police for invading their realm.
The man frantically threw back the hood of his black cloak and
lifted the crying baby from the wooden crib. Closing his eyes,
he brought the baby close to his chest, unable to look down at
the mother's lifeless, accusing stare. He ran from the nursery
and made his way into the living room; no doubt it had once been
a cozy and welcoming part of the house. But the room was now darkened,
haunted under the cold and disturbing shadow of what had just taken
place. Difficult as it was, the man struggled to ignore the family
smiling at him from the photos that littered the house. He threw
the front door open, paused with one glance back and knew—when the
night's harsh wind slapped his skin—he had just abandoned everything
he had ever stood for.
No time to run.
Heart thundering, he......
For more, please stay tuned as I seek a new publisher....SOON, DAVID THORNE WILL BE UNLEASHED!

hi do check my new book out. on www.allromanceebooks.com dark regards nick armbrister. its quite dark and about the perils of online dating. enjoy!:)
In our 21st century world of e-mail, internet and online networking sites, many things happen good and bad. People talk to one another in real time. They often fall in love without ever meeting. How on earth is it possible? Most of us use the net today without a second glance. Just be careful this could happen to you. When Fred was contacted by Betty, he was unaware of the torment and heartache he'd face. Excerpt: He only ever was in love with one woman. What's the difference of loving a gal compared to being in love? He knew the answer, oh yes he did. He had loved a certain gal for almost five years now. Five long, tough, lonely years—she was inside him all that time. She was like him in so many ways how would he not be in love with her forever? Would it be wise to share her name with you? he wondered, for it's all so very true. No, he'll change her name to respect her privacy. Also there were other gals before her and since they deserved anonymity, they received it. This story is ongoing and won’t end until the certain gal says yes or he takes his last mortal breath

Chapter 1 of THE NAISA MAFIA - read and enjoy on my blog... http://www.myspace.com/naisamafia .
CHAU VAN TRUONG wants to lose everything and be rejected by everyone. However in the endgame, I wish to rise from the ashes and reclaim my glory. But my mother, MUONG THI VAN, believed in me and supported me through my struggles. She will be rewarded by the first half million dollars to built her dream home in Vietnam from SECRETS KEPT movie. THIS IS NOT ENOUGH but the pieces of fiscal pie from an impossible dream turned reality will grow exponentially as the hype and word of mouth spreads for SECRETS KEPT movie then I will gift her the world on a plate. This woman who give me birth forbid me to work because she wanted me to focus on creating. Her unconditional love is as palpable as my beating heart. HOW COULD I SAY THANK YOU? This is the reason I write this declaration. I want the public to hold me accountable for what I vowed to do. It is also a reminder to myself that I am a man of my word. My lawyer has drawn up the contract stating that my mother gets the half million dollars before any money touches my hand. If this promise is empty, SECRETS KEPT movie or my writing career did not come to fruition. NOT MY FAULT!!!!

You're the top! Create for you today Beautiful, full of light, joy and sense of well being. Despite the daily life there are always chances for happiness. Your thoughts and your feelings are the source for your wellbeing. Clasp old things finally starting. Clarify and admit to what you already busy mornings when waking up and your time, peace and serenity takes away. It is important to balance to be in equilibrium, so that the miracle, the glories, the Incredible manifest and can show. Throw the ballast and creates space for light, for fun, for joy of life. In our life plan is nowhere anything of disharmony, of sorrow and suffering. If it is in your life has nestled itself, were you the creator and designer. Now you have the same opportunity to dissolve it, to change yourself and for the opposite decision. Use your freedom and your creative energy for what you really want to live. Live your Lichtsein fullfills and enjoy the life here on earth.
