 | BREAST CANCER LOVE POEM | Ellis | Poetry | Romance | 13 | 1.86 | Dec 14, 2011 |
Summary:I dedicate the following Poem to Ruth Marie. She is the character in the poem. We communicate only on facebook when she is strong enough. And sometimes I think she is a lot stronger than I am. My heart breaks each time we talk, but my pen is strong. It is so nice to be amongst such great writers at TNBW. During this holiday season, take time to realize how fortunate we really are.Chapters: |
| Aint Throwin Myself Off No Bridges (Final Poem) | Ellis | Poetry | Poetry | 12 | 1.38 | Jul 10, 2011 |
Summary:I just put this together as a parting poem. It took me all of thirty minutes to write. Wanted to leave you with a high note, literally. I will always be a part of the TNBW family. I have a daughter going through a crisis and for a short while I have to put the metaphors away. I will keep my pen filled with ink until we are reunited again. Thank you so much for not only welcoming me into your house, but allowing to walk on the red carpet as well. You are all my heroes...
This is not a great poem, but there is love between the lines.Chapters: |
| My Little Secret | pamlajj | Novel | Memoir | 3 | n/a | Jan 14, 2010 |
Summary:This is a revision of my memoir, previously titled The Big C. It describes how my adolescent cancer wreaked havoc on my life, and how, at the age of thirty, I finally ssought the assistance of a caring therapist who helped me come to terms with its far-reaching mental health consequences.
The story moves back and forth in time and place. Chapters that describe my experiences as a twelve year old are interspersed with chapters that showcase my sessions with my therapist when I'm a young adult. The story ends with me in my fifties, discovering the cause of my cancer and uncovering a secret about myself I could never have guessed.
Any and all feedback is appreciated. I have not removed the earlier reviews because I want to keep all of the advice they provided. If you have read and/or reviewed this story before, I would appreciate hearing what you think of the changes. If my story is new to you, please ignore those early reviews and share your own impressions.
One small caveat - Chapters one and two are more similar to their original form than are chapters three, four, and five.Chapters: |
