Hello all you brilliant creators! I'm John from Northeast Ohio. I've just completed my first manuscript. I'm equal parts proud/nervous/clueless. I'll be reading the comments to pick up whatever gems I can from you guys. I did purchase the Free Traffic Course, just waiting for the email link. But I'm really happy to be here!!

And it went pretty. I think me practicing talking about my book is really helping me articulate what it's about...that is something I struggle with. What about you guys...do yall like going live?

Hello everyone, I wanted to share that two children’s ebooks I’ve created are now available on Amazon, both part of The Rooted and Radiant Series. Curls, Coils, & All My Colors is a gentle, affirming story about self-expression, emotions, and identity. Through changing hairstyles and moods, it reminds children that every version of who they are is worthy and enough. Love Is Everywhere: 365 Days of Love is an interactive book that helps children explore what love looks like in everyday moments through affirmations, journaling prompts, and calming coloring pages. It’s designed to support kindness, reflection, and emotional awareness all year long. Both books are created for children ages 5–9 and focus on social-emotional learning in a soft, approachable way. I’d love to invite you to check them out, read with the children in your life, or pass them along if they resonate. They’re available here on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GKX52KB2 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GL7QDT84 Thank you for being such a thoughtful and supportive community.

Hello everyone, I’m excited to share that I’ve officially launched my website, The Wonder Room — a space I’ve created to gather my books, poetry, reflections, and creative offerings all in one place. The Wonder Room is meant to feel like an open door — a place for storytelling, healing, imagination, and connection. If you enjoy thoughtful writing, intimate poetry, and creative work rooted in love, self-discovery, and wonder, I’d love for you to visit and explore. Thank you for always supporting my creative journey and for holding space for art and storytelling. It truly means more than I can say. The Wonder Room https://kismetroom.com
