Dear Reader,
My strength in life comes from my insecurities. Those words remind me that it's okay to be afraid sometimes. It's okay to feel lost, like a wanderer. Eventually I do find my way. It might take me longer than the average Joe, but so far, I've never regretted the journey. Writing is the key to discovering what's really important to me. Writing also helps me find the funny in my life. The more I write, the more I learn about myself, and I think you will, too.
I invite you to enter this year's Write a Dear Reader contest. Yes, writing can be scary. In fact sometimes I can barely breathe when I'm writing, but that's when I know I've found the thing I need to write about.
The deadline for this year's Write a Dear Reader Contest is August 12th. I'm looking forward to reading your words. You'll find guidelines, past winning entries, and more about the $600 in cash prizes, go to: http://tinyurl.com/DRContest2013
Take a big breath and start writing.

AUTHORBUZZ: THE GHOST BRIDE (Fiction) by Yangsze Choo
Li Lan, a young Chinese woman, lives in 1890s colonial Malaya with her quietly ruined father, who returns one evening with a proposition--the wealthy Lim family want her to marry their son. The only problem is, he's dead. Night after night, Li Lan is drawn into the shadowy parallel world of the Chinese afterlife, with its ghost cities and paper funeral offerings, where she must uncover the Lim family's secrets before she's trapped there forever.
