My Baby Step Into the World of Blogging

Well, let's get this blog party started. I'm sure the first question most people will want to know, is , what the heck is a wubsmom. My answer to that would be, I'm the mother to a beautiful girl who's real name is Jessica, but has been known as Wubby J. Begonia (or Wub for short) since she was 4 years old. Her daddy came up with that nickname and it has stuck. She is now a happily married adult and we still call her Wub. We have nicknamed her husband Bub and we call them the Ubs.

Okay, enough about the Ubs for now, and something about me. I am a child of the 80's, who is too young to be old and too old to be young. So, where does that leave me?? A person that is biologically forty three years old, who physically feels ninety (sometimes) and who mentally still feels twenty five (on most days), and who has been forced into early retirement due to a health issue (will post more on that at a later time). So, now that my days are free, I have decided to renew my passion for writing.

I am, and have always been, an avid reader. I am currently a huge fan of the Young Adult Paranormal genre, with my favorite authors being Amanda Hocking (who doesn't love her), Lisa McMann, S. L. Naeole, Jessica Verday, Rachel Vincent, Zoe Winters, and yes I am even a fan of Stephanie Meyer (don't hate me). Another author, J. L. Bryan, is on my reading list and I suspect will soon be another addition to my fan list.

But now, the writing world is becoming my new love interest. I have been writing for years, but only in my mind. I never had the time to let the characters that live in my crazy mind become anything more than shades of my imaginative reality. I take that back, I have pages and pages (and pages) of plots and snippets of things written down, including several books started. I just don't have them in any kind of a book ready form. So, now is the time to let these demanding entities find their place in the written world. Heaven help us all.

I think that I will leave it at that for today. I don't want to put everything in my first blog, otherwise what will I have left to write about in my future blogs.
