The Dragon Flies'Lair~XXXXIII
Poets of The Lair | October 07, 2007 | Soaring Feather

Posted on 10/07/2007 6:40:02 PM PDT by Soaring Feather



My Dragon Fly and Me



If I could be a Dragon Fly
and wing my way through the sky
I would never be shy
just me and my Dragon Fly!

By moonlight we ride the wind
chase the comets tail for fun
by day we would hide from the sun
our fragile wings would come undone

On darkest nights we would use
fireflies as our guide
we would dip and we would glide
through the heavens open wide
and scatter diamonds in the night sky
my Dragon Fly and me...

And we would wing past our lovers
silent in the night...
to kiss their face in our flight
much to their surprise and delight
my Dragon Fly and me in sight...

Such a view do we share
away up here in the air
of breezes soft through our hair
my Dragon Fly and me a pair...

I will self publish, make the master copy, take the manuscript to the printer and order 100 or so copies to be printed.

Well, since I barely have gotten started it could take a while, depends on how fast I lay it out. Then there is all the rigmarole one has to go through, for the ISBN, etc.

Check

Some interesting information on ISBN’s and their application process.

Check.

When I did the first book I went through that publishers process even though I was the publisher, cost me at that time $30.00 for the number-oh a book, too. I applied directly to the Library of Congress. My understanding anyone can do this, just need the proper forms.

What Your Halloween Habits Say About You
A bit of an introvert, you like the special occasions just as much as everyone else. You just have your own unique way of celebrating Halloween.

You definitely think of yourself as someone who has a dark side. And part of having that dark side means not showing it.

Your inner child is curious, brainy, and maybe even a little gross.

Your fears are irrational and varied. It's hard to predict what you may be afraid of on any given day.

You're logical, rational, and not easily effected. Not a lot scares you... especially when it comes to the paranormal.

You are picky and high maintenance. If you wear a Halloween costume, it's only when you really feel like it. And it has to be perfect.
What's Your Halloween Personality?

That costs a lot to do that, probably just the cover. I can’t draw for beans.

Are your books illustrated?

Nop, but would like to illustrate the fantasy trilogy. May do pen and ink pictures of the maps at least and see how they come out.
