Drew Dawson Davis Fan

Hello everyone, I know I've told you all that I'm taking a break from Twitter, Facebook and blogging to put focus on finishing book #2 and #3, but I have to share with you another web gem. I stumbled upon a talented singer on YouTube one evening and his voice just blew me away. His name is Drew Dawson Davis . I was searching for music to help me feel one of the characters in my book, so I was looking for a particular song which just happened to be Garth Brook's Shameless. I know, I know, ew! It's country music. Whatever. :P Intrigued, I began checking out each of his videos and now I have listened to each of his posted videos repeatedly. They have become a musical muse for working on.

Not only does it exhibit the uncomfortable display of bad spelling, compromising situations and/or embarrassing circumstances, but you the reader also get a chance to reply and grade the text message. Talk about adding insult to injury, but it’s all in fun and (I hope) no one gets hurt. If you feel venturous here is the

Short Story: Contentment

The tall grassy meadow waved soft in the wind, rippling as if it were waves on the ocean. This was her favorite place to escape from the never ending house chores. Here she could sink down into the earthy scent of wild flowers and sweet grass. Her small frame was easily hidden by the towering grass as she reclined back into the green yielding mass. With her hands behind her head she closed her eyes and inhaled deeply. Birds chirped happily nearby adding to her blissful contentment, while the tinkling brook tried to lull her to sleep. She resisted the urge to drift off with the soothing water that lapped against the rocks. Being a young housemaid, liberties like these were few but treasured moments. She smiled thinking ‘Oh, how wonderful would it be to be one of the wealthy privileged. I would surely do this every day if I could.’ She didn’t feel jealousy towards her employer or his friends. Actually just the opposite, she felt very lucky to have her position in his fine house, especial
