Sorry for the long wait for another blog! I have been sick and my son had surgery today.
I am excited to announce that my book, “The Floopa Loopa” is in editing. This is a cute book that anyone with a dream, will enjoy. The book begins with the Floopa Loopa, an owl Elvis impersonator, landing his dream job. Off he goes around to different places that the “King” went to. The Floopa Loopa even has a signature dance that is fun for all ages to do. At the end of each dance sequence, he shouts, “And that’s the Mango Tango!” The end of the book is a surprise, so be sure to check it out.
Have you ever had a dream and wanted it so badly that you could taste your success? That’s how the Floopa Loopa started out. Two years ago, I went to an activity at church and they were doing watercolor. We were painting an owl step by step. I had done watercolor off and on for most of my life, and didn’t want to do what everyone else was doing. By the end of drawing my interpretation of what I thought my owl should look like, the Floopa Loopa was born. Now he looked very different than he does now, but he was still colorful and interesting. He wasn’t an ordinary owl. He had dreams and wanted to succeed where no owl had done before.
I was just starting my journey of self-discovery of what I wanted to do with my life. I had been divorced for two years and honestly didn’t know what to do. I had been a stay at home mom for my entire married life. I tried going to school many times, but failed. As someone with mental health issues, I struggled with being a square peg in a round hole. I was different and it took many years to find my niche. Now I am following my dreams and am doing what I dreamed of. I want to make people happy by reading my stories and finding a piece of themselves in them.
I hope that you can find a piece of yourselves in the stories that I weave. I don’t stick to just one theme. Whatever I think is interesting, I start to research and voila, a book is born. Come share my love of reading and immerse yourselves in stories that will bring a smile to your face.
