Good News About My Writing

Good News About Me
By Richart Drake Lewis

Well, after a long bout with illness and my computer being corrupted by a fatal virus due to my son’s watching porn on the Internet, I’m writing again. Unfortunately not on any of my novels like I want to, but on rather on assays that hopefully will mean something provided the right people read them and others got behind it.
So what sparked this interest? Michael Jackson’s death and his music videos “I’ll be there” and “Earth Song.” They sparked a need in me to contribute to his quest to feed the world and heal it at the same time. It’s a quest that takes more than one person, but all of us. We are so blinded by our ever-growing ignorance that it scares me when I allow myself to really think about it and that’s the problem; we’re not able to dig deep inside ourselves to see what’s important or even what we’re doing.
The world needs to live as one, with compassion and healing for all. We need to pull our Asses out of our own heads and do what’s right. Contribute to the causes the world needs for its healing and to stick petty creed and war up the Asses of those who cause and generate them. We are not going to have a healing unless we do.
That is the message I got from Michael Jackson and that’s the message I’m personally going to due my best to continue. Yeah, it’s a heavy load for one person and I hope that I’m strong enough/brave enough to at least make a difference.
Only time will tell.
I’m just a struggling writer and illustrator disabled by health. I’m a nobody aside from those of you who read my blogs, bulletins and who know my work thus far. Like a lot of folks in my field I know I’ll probably never reach the height I would like to other than hear on the Internet. It doesn’t, however, stop be from continuing what I do and trying to do what w all should do.
I believe it can be done. All we have to do is just do it. The first step begins with you and followed by one step after the other. After that the next step would be to fire a lot of idiots in our governments and give it back to the people where it belongs. It says, “We the people of these United States…” not “We the government…” and until we the people realize that, we are always going to be subject to their control.
I personally am tired of the bullshit.
P.S. To all those interested in the novels I write, I promise to get back to it soon.

My First Blog On This Site

I want to thank my musical friend Emily Steel for introducing me to this site. This is my first blog here and it ain't gonna be anything special this time around, but hi y'all. I'm a writer and fantasy illustrator and work now and then as a news correspondent for the Tipton County Tribune in Tipton, Indiana where I live. I also take ohotographs for them as well. I do have 10 books out over the net if you're interested. Most of'em can be found at: hhtp://stores.lulu.com/richartdrakelewis and pictures and other writings at myspace.com/ryctheauthorlewis or just go to myspace and type in my name: Richart Drake Lewis. Well, that's about it for now and thanks for viewing my introduction. I'll be around and writing something quite often. So grab hold and hold to something and get ready for the Ricky Dee Lewis Project.
