Author Leslie Walter left this beautiful review, of my book, “Short & not always Sweet” on my Facebook wall.  The words made my soul smile.  I wanted to share them with all of you.  ❤


SHORT & NOT ALWAYS SWEET

If you venture to visit this faraway land, and you should, the only means of transport is to let your fingers do the walking through the changing scenery. The peaceful beauty of a Viceroy settled in the warmth of a summer garden announces the beginning of this poetic journey. A journey that advances as the afternoon sun lowers casting shadows, shadows that lengthen into the evening dusk delivering you through mysterious archways into the cold corridors of twilight. Throughout the dark hours of night loneliness is illuminated by senses of spiritual enlightenment until the dawn announces a new day, but all is not the same, you are not the same, such is the emotional influence of this poetic journey.
If you venture to visit this faraway land, and you should, do not anticipate a straight road for there are many twists and turns where distance and time are without measure. Observe with both eyes and mind, do not ignore a page, do not ignore a line, do not ignore a single word, for you will experience a sincere insight into the heart and soul of a beautiful poet. You may even be surprised to learn that Dorinda Duclos’s intuitive writing can arouse moments of déjà vu within the depths of your own mind.

It’s always exciting when one of your readers leaves a review for your book.  Since I’m always forgetting to check Amazon UK, I was reminded to do so.  Here is the review.  Thank you so very much!

A lovely 5 Star review of my book, “Short & not always Sweet“.


Another treat from Dorinda

A lovely collection of stories, ideas and sentiments. Pieces range from as few lines to a few pages, each a blossoming element within a vivid garden worth closer inspection. ‘He watched me drown ‘ was a favourite but there are loads of different ideas to enjoy and many feelings like they could blossom into even prettier things.

Cover Reveal! ~ “Short & not always Sweet” by Dorinda Duclos

#CoverReveal, #creativewriting, #myphotography, #newbook, #nofilter, dorindaduclos.com, Night Owl Poetry, passages, Photography, Poetic Prose, Short & not always Sweet, short stories, writing

I’m excited to reveal the cover for my next book, “Short & not always Sweet“!  As you can probably surmise by the title, it is my first book of short stories.  I have included passages and poetic prose, to round out my writing.  Some of you will recognize the stories from Sue Vincent’s Thursday #writephoto, but there’s a catch.  The stories have been continued!  The book is in the editing stages now, and will be available soon (I hope).  Without further ado…

The back reads:

“Imagine yourself being lost in a faraway land, or sailing on a pirate ship.  Perhaps you’ll find yourself in a predicament, or a romantic rendezvous. From passages to longer, more detailed stories, these are writings that are sure to capture your imagination and evoke emotions, from sadness, to madness, to happiness and beyond.”

I look forward to releasing the book soon, and hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I’ve enjoyed writing it for you!
