I write. I can write memories and fantasies'. I try hard to hold the memory of my self as a child. Remembering my dreams and my thoughts and the knowing I was deeply loved by my parents. Frankly, I (being the youngest) was well aware I was Mama's favorite. Still knowing we felt the same. I miss Mama. I sometimes feel her presence looking over my shoulder.
I have written poetry. I have a published book on Amazon, That I didn't purchase the copyright, I have no rights to the shares in sales. And Carla is always writing something. Be it a dream or merely a thought, I continue to open my mind with my thoughts and dreams. Also I feel I am an open book with poetry. Still when I write it ALL comes from within.
The lonely friendless little girl who sat in a tree in her back yard reading books and being amazed at how the paragraphs always collided in perfect Sincerity.

Yes I have, then thought about parting with some of my best kept poetry but, so far, done neither. I can't quite figure out what happened to the work you had printed and published on Amazon, or anywhere else for that matter? ...

[i]Under U.S. copyright law, your self published work is protected as soon as you put the pen to paper. Copyright is based on your creative authorship and is not dependent on any formal agreement with a book publisher or self publishing company, although registration with the U.S. Copyright Office is beneficial.[/i]

The only reason I mention this is that I think that if it's legal that you don't have any rights to any financial gain, the something seems to be badly wrong for you :(
