convo between me and a follower

A conversation I had with a follower on twitter thru my DM:

(follower) Thanks so much for following me...you rock! I look forward to tweeting with you. My blogs: http://mikejmele.wix.com/mjmwriter 

(I told him about my book)

Thanks for the information, I will definitely check it out.

(ME) I am sure u will love my book. I will check out ur blog too

Thanks my friend, I really appreciate that.

Your book sounds really interesting.

Its based on real dreams I had and while writing them down I decided to turn it into a book

That's an awesome idea. Sometimes our dreams tell the best stories. I can't wait to check it out

My second book is about clones and androids hunting down last 1000 humans. Takes place in space. Earth no longer exists

Have you ever thought about writing a TV show or movie, because you have a lot of cool ideas?

Have a ton of scripts but not sure how to get them out there. Also hired by producer to write outline for tv pilot. Also writing webseries

That is freaking awesome. Good luck and I wish you much success.

Thx

THE CHOSEN ONE

a small blurb about my book THE CHOSEN ONE:

This is a shrunken down version of what's happening at the beginning of the book, before the main character encounters the aliens.

The main character (SGT. Pearson) who works for the police force, has had 3 bizarre dreams; he thinks they're dreams, but later in the story we'll find out differently. He has a friend known as the RAT MAN; very good with technology and computers. Pearson goes to the Rat Man when he needs insider info on gangs, etc...

Aliens, disguised as humans, are now causing rioting, murder, rapes and total chaos in the city. However, no one is aware that it's aliens causing this and they all assume people have gone mad. And who wouldn't go mad; the heat is not at 160 F, for three days there will be daylight. The atmosphere feel different...it feels as if it' alive...

LOVERS NOT IN LOVE

Just a little something for lovers not in love or for those longing for love. (these are my thoughts and not the thoughts of my hormones...lol) THIS IS AN ORIGINAL WORK BY E DOUGLAS BROWN: PEOPLE YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS TO THIS....BUGGER OFF.

Thinking about you and what you have done for me since we met and became lovers. And thinking about how much you hate me but love it when I make love to you and how conflicting it must be on your psyche and the strain it must cause your emotions as your feelings ride the roller coaster of love and hate. Thinking about the pain in your heart that matches the pain between your legs. They both want love, but only one is receiving while the other is deceiving. Forever lost in the abyss of love and confusion, hatred and love, to love and be loved. Wandering streets of agony and wanting, deception and longing, to go or to stay. Cut off from all warmth of humanity's love and understanding as you reach out for someone to love. Stupid men were your weakness, travelling the solar system searching for a good lover. You found me to satisfy your sexual desires and your orgasmic release, but still a longing burns inside you as your heart chills to the coldness of my love and the misunderstanding to your true desires, wants, longings and emptiness. And as I stumble through my empty place searching room to room for my love, my heart aches as it too searches; moving among the vastness of emptiness and finding it is too late. My hands reach out and grasp a lock of hair, a thread of fabric and twine them together to sow the tear in my heart of loneliness.

CHANGED MY EATING HABITS

I'm not dieting because I don't believe in dieting. But I've changed the way I've been eating for the past week. Not sure how long I can keep this up but will give it a try.

Monday I made a four liter jug of home made juice. I put 16 carrots, 4 grapefruit, 1 green apple and 5 kiwi in a juicer. Been drinking it all week. In a blender I mixed in fruit juice, 2 pears, 12 strawberries, 3 handful of blueberries and 2 oranges.

Starting on Tuesday I ate two cooked meals and the rest of my food intake consisted of the juice, concoction from the blender, raw fruit and veggies plus tons of water and antioxidant juice (acia berry).

Wednesday I ate one cooked meal and tons of raw fruit/veggies, juicer mix, blender mix and water. Thursday/Friday I ate two cooked meals and the concoction from the blender/juicer plus raw fruit/veggis.

By Friday I was so damn tired. I almost didn't go to my gym workout. But I forced myself and only did my bench. Actually, most of the week I was tired. My body was going through a change and it wasn't used to it. I slept really well all week.

Saturday I blended up 4 bananas, 4 pears and four oranges plus added some juice.

A couple things I've noticed since going on this new eating regime:

(1) I've lost my craving for coffee. I used to love drinking coffee, but now I don't crave after it. I was still ordering coffee or making it at home, but after a couple of sips I'd stop drinking it. Now I just have to stop the habit of ordering it.

(2) The bloating in my stomach is going away. I used to always feel bloated no matter if I ate or drank something. I no longer feel like that after eating or drinking. Also, I used to be able to push my stomach out so It would look like I had a very fat stomach. Now when I push my stomach out it only extends out to half of what it used to.

I've been eating more fish and still eating eggs; fried of course. I'm actually enjoying eating raw food. I don't crave after much meat anymore, however, having said that, I need to increase my protein because I'm still hitting the heavy weights and working out hard.

WHAT'S INSIDE MY MIND?

Part of my wild imagination is because I have so many voices living inside my head. They keep me sharp and on my toes. If I stay inside too long then things like this start happening to me......

Need to get out of the house. The walls are closing in on me. Aliens are speaking to me through my TV. My microwave is picking up signals from outer space. My Brain is on overload. Think I'll take my IPAD and venture outside like a normal person.

But at least outside, when I'm talking to myself, or my imaginary friends, I'll have people around to protect me from the crazy personalities that live inside my head...

When I'm home alone they make me do unspeakable things, things that no man should have to do, like: watch reality TV shows, cooking shows, flower arranging shows, make me put pop in with my rum and ice.

So now you have a small understanding of why I'm the way I am. I've ventured back inside and this time I'm lucky. They, my imaginary friends, are all asleep or at least pretending to be asleep...

I'm writing this slow and softly because I don't want to make too much noise, I think they're suspicious of me. I wasn't able to respond earlier (reason why I went outside), because my other personalities were watching me. I think they're onto me knowing about them, so I have to be careful what I say and where I go. I keep having to come up with new excuses to get away from them. If my writing suddenly switches to a more lucid and sane writings of a mad man, it's because they're watching over me. Right now they're passed out in my bedroom, living room, office, bathroom, even my balcony. Funny that you mentioned REDRUM, because that's JACK THE KNIFE, one of my personality's favorite drink. I don't like it when he drinks that stuff, makes him see RED. And sometimes one of my personalities, she's such a bitch, makes me put on women's clothing and watch women shows and makes me cry and dab my eyes with soft tissue paper...Oh shit they're starting to wake up...I have to go....

WHAT, I'M DOING NOTHING...PUT THAT GUN DOWN.....)


This is what happens when I'm left alone with my thoughts, my ideas, my imagination, my cabinet full of liquor...lol

PAPERBACK COPIES

I have my book, THE CHOSEN ONE, on amazon as an ebook. On that site it sells for .99 cents in the USA or $1.09 in Canada. Not sure what it sells for in the UK, but I'm assuming really cheap. Here is a link to the amazon site.          http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00K0SH3EI

I also have PAPERBACK copies of the book available on another site. On that site you can also buy an ebook copy of my book. However, there the price is $2.99. The paperback version of my book sells for $17. It may seem like a lot but I only make 30-40 cents per book.  Here is a link to the PAPERBACK version of THE CHOSEN ONE    http://3mpub.com/brown/

I originally wrote this story years ago. My ability as a writer/author was marginal back in those days. I wrote the story and self-published it anyway. The story and its content were great. Nonetheless, the grammar, sentence structure, wording and spelling were questionable. I handed out free copies of the paperback version of my book, which cost me a bundle, but received encouraging feedback. I put it to one side and forgot about it.

Flash forward to December 2012. It was xmass time and I was bored. I found an old copy of my book and proceeded to read it. First thing that popped in my head while reading the book was; "what illiterate person wrote this piece of garbage?" That was when I decided to embark on an editing frenzy.

I work in the movie industry and for three months, Jan-March, I edited that book as if my life depended on it. I placed each chapter in its own file. Then I copy and paste one page at a time and edited it to my satisfaction.

I saved my work at the end of each day and would edit it again in the morning. Each chapter had multiply saved copies. I would finish off a chapter and move forward. Every three chapters I would go back and edit it all again. I would not move onto another chapter until I felt good about the one I was working one.

Once PART ONE of my book was done I sent it out to four friends for feedback. While they were reading it I continued on with the second half of my book. However, by then I was working full time in the movie industry and my editing progress had almost ground to a halt.

In Jan-March of 2014 I sent out the second half of my book to friends. They gave me feedback and I did one more editing of the entire book before searching for a copy editor. I found an excellent copy editor who made the words of my story flow like magic; tickling the sensory palette of my readers.

So now you know the story of how this book came to be. If you buy an ebook or paperback copy of the book please leave a review on the amazon site. There is no page on the paperback site for leaving reviews.

Reviews are very important to an author, especially a first time author.

I am working on my second book, which should be out in 2015. You can also read chapter one to THE CHOSEN ONE on my blog. Here is the link to it   http://edouglasbrown.blogspot.ca/2014/06/chapter-1-from-chosen-one.html

CONSEQUENCES

These r my thoughts and in no way reflects the thoughts of society.

I have come to realize THERE IS NO RIGHT AND WRONG THERE ARE ONLY CONSEQUENCES. And your view of right and wrong is inconsequential to what I believe is right and wrong. 

A person's action has consequences; it is neither right nor wrong...it just is. Your right could be my wrong and your wrong could be my right; but the consequences of a person's action is inconsequential to your beliefs, for s/he has performed the so call right/wrong action and now must face their consequences.

And even the consequences of their actions are neither right nor wrong...it just is. No one knows the true universal reason behind a person's action, but it happened...and that's happened with an 'ED'. It transpired in the past and you are now In the present, so move on and grow from the consequences of your actions.
