Hi late bloomer. With a screen anme like that you need to meet Prill Boyle. She wrote a book on late blooming women. Check the Featured Author forum and you will see when she was the featured author.

One of my reasons for launching this site was so we wouldn't have to feel alone with our stories. Welcome aboard. I'd also like to hear aobut your books.

Add my name to the long list of caring women Late Bloomer. We want you here, we welcome you, and we hope you stay. One thing... you will never be alone here, of this I can promise.

Glad to meet you Late Bloomer!

Late Bloomer,

Welcome, Late Bloomer! You now have a lot of new friends!

Welcome Aboard Late Bloomer! If support and caring is what you need - you've come to the right place. So happy you found us.....we're all looking forward to getting to know you!

Late bloomer it is a pleasure to have you here with us. In no time your day will be filled with all your new long didtance friends. My friends here in town wonder where I am most of the time and its here chatting with my best friends...WELCOME, oh and the Hoosiers are a friendly bunch so making friends there should be easy. I was born in Indiana.

Thanks, everybody, for the warm welcome! For those who are interested in knowing more about my books, they are collections of my poetry illustrated with photographs I have taken over the years. They are in Adobe PDF format, which will "play" on any multimedia-capable computer with the free Adobe Acrobat program installed, so that you can page through them in order, or use bookmarks to jump around.

I am selling them on CD through Amazon.com, and also in downloadable format through EbookAd.com -- big downloads, though. If anyone wants to order one, there are links on my website to both of these. I also have a review posted, contents listings, and an "experimental" audio file (myself, reading one of the poems), and miscellaneous info "about the author."

The first book, Intervals of Light, contains poems on various subjects, and most of the photos were taken in the southeastern U.S. either nearby where I lived, or on trips taken while based in that area.

The second book, So This Is Love, is about ... well ... the many forms and stages of love. Most of these photos were taken on a recent trip to the southwest (Texas and New Mexico).

I am an avid amateur naturalist, and love to photograph plants, animals, and scenery wherever I go. I am also a great lover of cats, so there are a couple of cats in there too -- my own domestic pets plus at least one of the big cats I was in the habit of visiting on a regular basis.

(There is a big cat sanctuary near us in Indiana, and I have been bugging my husband to plan a trip soon - I understand they now have the three young leopards that were seized from some guy in New York and were all over the tabloids!)

Wow, guess I ran on - I do "talk" a lot. Anyhow, pleased to meet you-all!

Hi Late Bloomer, 2 books? and one about Love? That is so wonderful!! I am always awed by creative women...who or what inspired you to write them? Don't worry about sales...they will come...I have a friend who started a line of baby clothes...she sent some of them to the Oprah Show and soon she had orders a plenty...I suggest you send them to Oprah also...maybe she will read them and add them to her reading list..there is nothing she loves more than a good book...and she is all about women succeeding...plus...she is a Boomer Lady as well...lots of good luck
