| Since we last got together, my series of "Branes" paintings is continuing and I will be posting each piece of art to this site as I complete it. I have been dealing with "Branes" which is the shortened word for "Membranes." And it is a pop word for a physics concept that involves the theory that there are eleven dimensions and the membranes that separate them. They are the subjects that I paint in this series.
My music has been put aside for a while because I have some great news to tell you...read to the end, please!
My writing continues with the third book in the series on mind tools entitled, "An Elegant Echo." It has just been submitted to my publisher and I am doing the hardest thing that there is about publishing a book...waiting for the other shoe to drop which is usually in the form of a request for some rewrite and corrections. I think so much of my editors who are completely responsible for keeping this busy, sensitive writer on track.
If you remember, the first book written for the mind tools series was "The Joy Reminder", "Inside the Honey Walls" followed it and soon "An Elegant Echo" will be in your bookstores. If they are not, please request them of the bookstore. There is a very short turnaround time on all my books. The feedback on the first two books has been phenomenal. A Woman's shelter has requested a dozen of them for their clients on the basis of the director of the facility reading and studying the two books with her daughter.
The people who have had the need to read these books seem to find their way to them, whether as a gift, finding them left on a table in a cafe or purchasing them. At $12.95, the price is the lowest that my publisher will let me set it, but you can go online to Amazon or another book source and try there for a discount. The EBooks are also very user friendly and a bit cheaper.
If you want to learn how to use your mind in different and wonderful ways, these books may be for you. After publication of my third book in the series, I will market all three books as a package, as well as singly. That should make a great gift for the Holidays.
The Charity Arts Show that we put on last May did very well(just under $1600 in 2 hours) and we felt very blessed to give that amount to a women's shelter in our area. Unfortunately, and it was a very hard decison to make, we cancelled the May second show this year. We are not giving up on the Mymuse project though, and many of my artists are still working on pieces for that project. We'll let you know when we are able to rescheduel that show.
Now for the important part of all of this...happily, I now have a new title, that of Internet Talk Show Host with VoiceAmerica. My show is titled, "The Soft Edge" and it will be aired live every Thursday from its Launch date of 8 October 2009 until the beginning of January 2010. It will be aired on The 7th Wave Network. The time is 12:00 noon eastern time until 1:00 PM and it will be aired again at 12:00 midnight to 1:00 AM. How great is that!!
So Send in your comments to the site about the show. Email me at cjsartco@aol.com. I am still soliciting ideas and requests for guests that you would like to be added to the shows. If I use your idea, I will send you a set of the mind tools books.
Some of the shows on "The Soft Edge" will be call-ins, and we look forward to speaking with many of you and I am sure that our guests will enjoy your questions about their particular stories.
Until then dear ones,go out there and live life.
