My First Book CANELA has finally been published! I’m so excited.
Yesterday was an AMAZING day. My book has finally been published and it’s available now on Amazon.com as an e-book and as a paperback.
(For an excerpt visit: carmensuarez.com/canela/)
I wanted to share that with everyone!
I’m not some great writer. I’m not even the most brilliant storyteller – but my story is interesting, and probably not so much the norm. My point in writing these true stories, is to remind us that who we are in the world and how we treat each other, matters. We matter to each other. And sometimes we don’t even realize it.
Every person I talk about in the book is someone who changed the way in which my life manifested after I lost my only parent. I ended up in some interesting, dangerous predicaments as a child and yet, I can say that I had the best childhood. I should’ve been a statistic – in a bad way – and instead I had a really great life and became “successful” because of these amazing people I met along the way. We need to be reminded that who we are matters — not just to ourselves and our families, but to each other. Every day. With everyone we interact with. When we do something, when we say something — when we are our best selves, we can change a persons life for the better. That’s what happened to me.
I hope you’ll read the book. Let me know what you think. Please don’t be too harsh! Either way, I hope you enjoy your visit to my blog – “my creative space” and that you’ll consider wandering over here again some time soon.
Thank you for stopping by.
Carmen

You’re quite welcome! As a budding novelist, I’m looking forward to the day when I publish my book. (I’ve put it on the back burner so many times I sometimes wonder if I’ll ever complete it though) : )

Check you out! And now I own a book by one of them nifty internet people. (If a digital signature was the same as a real signature, I’d ask for one. 😁)
Congratulations!!! Can’t wait to start reading!

WOW! Thank you so much. You are too funny. Yeah, a digital signature isn’t the same, huh? Well, maybe someday I’ll be in your neighborhood, and if that happens, I’ll give you a signed book for sure! Hugs.
