About This Author
My name is Joy, and I love to write. Why poetry, here? Because poetry uplifts its writer, and if she is lucky enough, her readers, too. Around us, so many objects abound to write about. Once a poet starts with a smallest, most trivial object, he shall discover that his pen will spill out what is most delicate or most majestic hidden inside him. Since the classics sometimes dealt with lofty subjects with a lofty language, a person with poetry in his soul may incline to emulate that. That is understandable. Poetry does that to a person: it enlarges the soul and gives it wings. Yet, to really soar, a poet needs to take off from the ground. Kiya's gift. I love it!

Phew, 2012 NaNo done!

I’ll take the highest. *Wink*

I think, despite all the challenges this one presented and all the complaining I did, I liked writing this novel’s characters the best.

But I am glad it is over. I just hope I won’t do what I did after the earlier Nano years. That is, get burned out. A good indication is, I don’t feel burned out this time, but I don’t want to touch this novel again till kingdom come. *Laugh*

Now I can go back among the living. *Smile*
