Blog Thoughts: Manifestations

My Manifestations…Will They Come True???

There are a lot of things I see for myself. Goals I’d like to accomplish, things I hope to happen with my blog and my books. Here’s what I’d like to happen within a year from now. My manifestations if you will.

I’d like to see my “followers” grow x10. It’s a big jump from where I am currently, but pigs fly don’t they? I think my stories are captivating, fresh and unique. I think my quirks are just on the border of weird that it isn’t too much. Though I will say, sometimes my weird doesn’t show through my personal blogs. I’m working on that. Perhaps it will make people want to subscribe to see what strange things I will say or stories I will tell. Thus my manifestation will become my reality.

My book sales will soar out of nowhere. People are going to take a chance on a new author such as myself and reviews will come in. If I were to compare my writing style to authors, it would be hard. My husband believes that my vampire stories are similar to J.R. Martin’s writing style. My first question was who? I know, surprise, I haven’t seen or read Game of Thrones. Judge me tomorrow, not today! My novel that is purchasable, is edgy and relatable but my hero is bit of a tragic one. A lot of people enjoy protagonists who have a happy ending. I on the other hand love a story that has stakes. Things that work for the main characters (MC) and things that go terribly wrong for them. I love a flawed MC who you want to cheer for but sometimes you don’t. Building sub characters who you love more than the MC’s when they steer off the path of likability. Character development is a must. I like a bitter sweet ending and tragic ones. That’s what I like to write. If you are looking for such a story or know some else who is, here’s the link for the paperback. It’s also available in Kindle and Kindle Unlimited. https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asin=B08KGW446D&preview=newtab&linkCode=kpe&ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_oqwRFbVEDXDGV

I will financially earn enough for a downpayment on my “tiny house”. I put quotes around tiny house because it will be larger than many that people see but still falls within the tiny house family. It’s been a dream of mine for years to own one. My husband jumped on board soon after we married. It will be an exciting adventure and I’ve designed into it everything we need, want, and things he didn’t think would be possible. This manifestation should happen naturally should the previous ones come true. You could help by subscribing. You know you want to! I’m not telling you what to do, I’m just encouraging you (Ha!).

My last manifestation for now is that I will have weight-loss surgery. It’s a hard thing to admit. I have medical conditions that brought me significant weight gain (PCOS- polycystic ovarian syndrome), poor food habits, and horrible coping skills. All of which add to where I am with my health. Two of which I’m seeking therapy for, though the other is a little more complicated. This is a vulnerable thing to share so please be kind. I’ve typically been healthy most of my life but as life forced me to grow older (I’ll be 32 in a few months), it’s taken me on a journey that I never could imagine. My weight increased with each difficulty I faced and learning that it would be hard to have children, the PCOS, was a major one. It also being why it’s difficult for me to loss the weight was like a huge middle finger to my face. Well, all that said, I am seeking weight-loss surgery and this is to mark that manifestation into existence. Fingers crossed that it leads to a little one to grow my family. It would be nice to be able to afford that family, thus you could stick around and subscribe to see if it or any of my other manifestations come true!

Enough of my ramblings. If you did enjoy this and stuck around this long, leave a like, comment or subscribe (LOL). Check out some of my short stories if you are looking for a new author.  Tears of Red is a completed series https://galaserks.com/2020/02/12/tears-of-red-episode-1/

Thank you for chilling with my thoughts. Until next time!

  1. Well I put the second paragraph in the wrong place of my second comment and accidently hit the Send button while trying to fix it so i hope that you can make sense of it. Thank you for following my Blog! 🙂 🙂 🙂

      1. Thank you that is good to read! My secret is that i write strictly for myself – what i want to read – as opposed for an audience. The followers, likes and comments i receive are the icing on the cake as i do not write to suit others – and never will. 🙂

  2. Good luck with your surgery. I once worked with a fellow whose wife was morbidly obese who had her stomach stapled forcing her to eat tiny meals. It was successful and she lost the weight even though my buddy was attracted and had a sexual fetish for (shall we say) Plus Sized Women. Love reading your blog so keep writing and have a great Friday and a wonderful weekend.

      1. Thank you! I firmly believe that everyone has the right to their sexual preferences and to set the standards they desire in a partner.

        Indeed I’d rather live with such a woman even if it meant forgoing sex altogether because 5 minutes of pleasure isn’t worth 23 hrs and 55 minutes of drama.

        That’s how old i am as it took me a very long time to learn that lesson.

        Yet i would much rather be friends with a Plus Size woman who is pleasant and respectful. Than to end up with a smokin hot babe with a deceitful, dominating personality and nasty attitude.

        I choose my friends very carefully and am attracted to an individuals writing here on WordPress as opposed to superficialities such as gender, sexual orientation and/or looks.

      2. I’d agree with you there. I do hope things worked out between them, however I can understand if things didn’t bode well. I am grateful that my husband shares your mentality on the matter.

        The physical makeup of a person or their personal choices in who they love or how they identify only affects them. It bothers me when others feel like they have a right to weigh in on another’s life related to those things.

        I agree with you here as well, the writings of a person (their minds) shows you more than the physical ever could. I surround myself with people who can respect differences even if they don’t share my way of thinking.

      3. I’m glad to hear it.

        I’m always up for an arousing and interesting debate; sometimes i even change my opinions or modify them as necessary to stay intellectually honest.

        In the end she divorced him a year or so after her brother accidently killed himself while cleaning his riffle in the basement and it discharged the bullet left inside the chamber.

        She was devastated and had a difficult time learning how to live with it.

        Once he told me in a matter of fact tone of voice that she would just have to get over her brother’s untimely death.

        I knew then there was trouble brewing in paradise, she became an alcoholic, eventually divorcing him a year later.

      4. Oh my, I’m not sure if you’d want me to approve your post for others to see.
        I’m sorry to hear about their outcome. That’s pretty heavy. I hope she has healed from everything that transpired and I hope they both found happiness.
