Writing is my passion! . Thanks again!

Hello All,

I have to say this has been an exciting Summer , as an aspiring writer.  Throughout the social media I have been able to connect with so many authors of all types and gain so much knowledge of how to work on my craft.   I want to say thanks to all my followers on facebook, tweeter, and linked in.  I also have to give praise to The World Literary Cafe (WLC Community) and their platform to pave it forward to aspiring writers such as myself.  Melissa Foster and the many great Authors that I have been able to connect with have been so helpful.  I have to say this platform along with others like the Exhange Fan page, started by Victoria AldridgeWashuk  have allowed me to gain more of a following.  However, there are many authors that have supported me and I want to say Thanks.   Melissa Foster from day one you have only extended yourself and you always encourage authors to pay it forward.   Micheal Rivers thanks for your suport as well, along with Emerald Barnes, Christine Cunningham, Rachelle Ayala,  Leslie Garcia, Stacy Eaton and  There are so many others.  I also want to say thanks to The Book doctors, David Henry Sterry and his lovely Wife arielle eckstut whom I was able to connect with on  "The  Pitchapalooza Contest" through the World Literary Cafe.  I really appreciate all the insights that I am still learning.  I also want to thank all the followers to my blog.    There are so many new things   I have been able to learn and that has helped me to  explore my creativity .  The reason being is that aside from working on my first book and drafting it, I have also been able to write some short stories and enter into some Writing Contests one on Linked in with a Writer's Group led by another great author  Heather Schuldtz.  I would also like to extend my thanks to my family, My husband Jeremy and my three children along with great friends and siblings that have believed in me from the very start, and also my strong faith which has never let me down.

Throughout this summer, what I have discovered is that I am so sure that Writing is what I want to do for the rest of my life.  I have so much love  for what I am doing.    Throughout all the ups and downs,
I have realized that if you want something, you have to keep fighting and do not give up on it.  Writing is my passion!

Thanks again,


Syl Stein

excerpt : Battered Mind Prologue

Sadie sat on her hospital bed wondering how she got there.   She looked  all around the large room, and began to place her arm on the cold metal brass of the  bed.   She noticed how the nurses would come in and out the door.  As she layed,  there quietly, her heart began to race rather rapidly.  It only took a few minutes before  all that had transpired the night before came back to her.   Suddenly, she began to  scream very loudly.    The loud screams overwhelmed the entire floor.   It did not take very long for the  hospital staff to come into her room.  As they tried to calm Sadie down, she tried to  get away by kicking and trying to bite the nurses in the room.  After a period of what seemed forever, a male nurse came in and gave her a sedative to  calm her down.    Sadie again seemed like she was in another world.  She could not  ...

New Excerpt for my novel..

The room was pitched dark, and you could hear the phone ringing very loudly.    However, there was no answer that night of May 27, 2009 at the Carlyle residence.     This is when the neighbor retired Nurse  Agatha Lane called the authorities.   Ms. Lane  lived alone and never married and took a liking to the Carlyle’s .  Sadie and Ms. Lane   became instant friends and she also extended her help to them when they needed care  for their daughter.  In her frantic call she just said she had heard a gunshot and believed  some intruders had broken into the home.  This is when the authorities were alerted and  they went straight to the scene of the crime.  The large Mansion  was located in North  Raleigh.  This was a very private and secluded area.  Both  Dante and Sadie  were part  of a very wealthy class with both of them belonging to families ...
