Back Cover Blurb From My Book

     This is the excerpt from the back of my book:
     "Taking the time to reflect on the simple pleasures of life is one of the themes of this short story collection.  Rooting for the underdog is another one.  Seeing one's reflection on the social pond of life, and establishing one's take on what you see in the background provides for a vast amount of writing material.  Come and visit the characters of this collection, just to see how the author defines who's doing what in her fictitious neck of the universe.  Immerse yourself, and maybe you too, will make reading and appreciating short stories one of your pastimes."
     "Cynthia J. Cordell writes with a love for the whole process of creating and inventing new, everyday short stories.  She has a fascination for the art of crafting stories that touch people's lives."
     The book, titled "Sharing Short Stories," is available directly from the publisher (the book is self-published through) Xlibris.  It can be found at:
http://www.xlibris.com/sharingshortstories.html
     If you click on the link, currently, it will tell you that it is temporarily unavailable.  This is because I am doing a revision on it (made possible because it is print-on-demand publishing), but I should be done with the revision process in about a week's time.  If you should pick up a copy....Happy Reading!

Initial Blog

     Hi everyone, welcome to my blog!  Let me tell you about myself, I write short stories.  I have a collection of short stories currently self-published with Xlibris titled "Sharing Short Stories."
    I also design greeting cards with GreetingCardUniverse.com and I hope to do a collection(s) of cards based on the themes found in my book of short stories.  They center around family, career, weddings, mental wellness, Internet sleuthing, engagement relationships, computer jargon and (of all things), science fiction themes!
     So yes, I will attempt even to create greeting cards with a science fiction theme, so stay tuned....because I'll be dotting this blog with images of those greeting cards!
     Take care for now.
