Okay, this is where I waste my time and yours by writing and reading this next blog entery. Yes, in a nut shell or more like the toilet bowl, the world is all messed up and no one really cares, why? The world is starting to remind me of a bad surprise at the bottom of a craker Jack’s box. I see, read and hear every day the lies and the misguidence brought to you by the curitousness of the media and other ppl. Do we not know that all men/women aren’t created equally, and for a good reason too,thank god! Not everything that is good for the goose is going to be good for any other animal or others of its own kind. Can we please stop treating every woman as a call girl just becuase the last girl you knew was one and so was your nieghtbor. Well, first you should analys the ppl you know and hang out with then see what kind of neighborhood you live in, this might explain that, but in the aspects of the rest of the world maybe you should get out of the little mental box you are living in and start seeing the world, start seeing that not every woman is a sex toy. There is so much more in the world and it sounds like the world is missing it. And no not everyone is a call girl, not everyone wants to be one or date one, no not everyone hangs out in bars/ pubs, no not everyone thinks that a good way to spend the weekend is to get so drunk off your ass you can’t see the next day, no that’s not a party I want to be at. No not everyone around you or in your nighborhood is going to listen or like the same music or want to hear it when you want to blast them away with it. No not everyone is a drug user or think it’s cool, no, no, NO!! So well I guess this means I am having life a little bit better staying away from these kinds of ppl, but the problem is most of the ppl I see or find are what I highlighted above. Okay, I hate golf, but if you can take me for a great weekend or week golfing so I can hang out with more respectable ppl then I’m there. I see the wrong ppl giving advice doing more harm then good. These want to be psycology perfessionals writing advice for the next big thing in any kind of relationship turns out to be wrong. These ppl who write these are just worried about turning over a buck they care nothing about you or what you get out of what they write. They are HOPING that YOU the PUBLIC will have the COMMON SENSE to know what to do or how to see YOUR PROBLMES not because of what a writer wrote in a paper. If more ppl would engage in knowing common sense we would be in a more better place of living. We would not be or have to hurt so much. So come on ppl lets get it right, don’t think the next dead body in the gutter won’t be you because it just might be. Think about what you do to you and other ppl. No the world is not just you and what you do does not just effect just you. It also effects everyone who knows you, why put them through so much just becuase you want them too. If you don’t like there ppl tell them verbally and stop playing guessing games with them. Talk to them it’s who that person is as an individual, it’s their personality that makes them who they are and what they do. Don’t have to turn to the media to get it right, talk to that person about the things that are an issue that is the only way you are going to know, and world stop stereo typing everyone, Yes, a good part of the world is messed up but not everyone and it’s you that can help get the world back to better. So come on world let’s get it right.

The Twitter Exchange, what? Friday, Nov 6 2009
Entertainment and social networks getting more followers on twitter, how to get more followers on twitter, promoting on social networks, promoting on twitter, social networks, the twitter exchange kyannzorain 6:54 am
I have posted in one of my recent tweets on Twitter, that I am in the market for testing a concept I’m calling ‘The Twitter exchange’. What this is, is what every twitter-er should be doing from the get go. You follow the people who follow you in an ever-growing chain of what this social network is suppose to be any way. Okay, like you couldn’t figure that out for yourself, but I’m going to help you get more followers by being a leader and getting you to be a leader, and yes this does have potential, who does not want more followers on this idioticly- simple- yet -getting- followers- frustrating system? This site works in a simple concept but if you don’t have followers then your tweets are pretty much just hanging out there not being heard, dumb I know. Here’s the kicker, getting followers is so frustrating, unless you are a major celebrity, which I’m sure you’re not, but could become.
How it works: This is even more simple than the name ‘Twitter”. You follow me at http://twitter.com/kyzorain then I’ll follow you, with me so far? Now part II, you drop my name in a blog, tweet or whatever promotional method you care to use, but it would work better if it was connected to Twitter in some way, sort of like back links and such. Get people to follow as many people as possible telling them to return the favor. I will most definitely be doing a lot posing for everyone who returns the favor for me, got it.
Simple right? Well let’s give it a go, I’m looking forward to helping you help me and everyone else who is following you. We all know the more people you have following you the more influential you become. So let’s get influential and BE HEARD! This is not spam, because you are just doing what you were to be doing on Twitter, and they can unfollow you, and you them, at any time when the tweets become something you are not wanting any more. Yes, I know, you’re thinking that this sounds so much like the link exchanges and you know what? You’re right! I have been in many programs that offered link exchanges having a good run with it. This can only help if you actually work it, just follow the people who follow you then give a tweet or two to get others to also follow them, then they do the same for you and everyone else that follows them. Okay, I think that’s it! I’ve covered everything, so smile and start following, then converse with them. The more you converse with them the more they will want to help promote you. So smile and have fun! Tweet!

What is “The Stones of the Hidden Power”? Wednesday, Oct 28 2009
Authors and Entertainment and New releases and YA novels and books and novels and sci-fi kyannzorain 3:43 am
Author Kyann Zorain has no doubt wrote the bomb of the century. As a writer she has it down with blogs, articles and columns, but not so much as a novelist. This follow-up blog is not intended to hurt the sales, if any, of this novel but just to get people to acknowledge that it is out there. To many readers of fantasy and sci-fi have asked the question when asked about the book, “What is the stones of the hidden power and who did you say wrote it?” So this blog is up to you to take a look at the excerpt at Kyann’s author page www.kyannsbooks.weebly.com and let the world know what you think by blogging about it or just leave a comment here for us to read. Another follow-up will be posted as time will allow.
In general some of the excerpt reads as is, As he and Tessiyon stared up to the sky, the darker clouds in front of them promised a troublesome storm and was filled with at least four hundred red dragon images. What was worse is that they were sailing right into the heart of it all. Tessiyon knew there was to be trouble with the storm and fire-breathing dragons, but she knew she had to be ready for whatever destruction was to meet her crew. Tessiyon did not have much of a company to begin with, for she had gathered at least twenty men before leaving. And twenty was not large at all, but all of her better choices have aged or passed in death. Troubled times were to be over, yet some knew they would return; when it did, it was not to be in their lifetime and Tress would have been ready for whatever displeasures were to be breathed up them. She knew without an army to help her with the fight against Zian she was pretty much on her own.
Tessiyon stepped over to the left from where she was standing on Filton’s left side. With her sash and black robes, they stood with eyes glued fully on the dragon filled sky; she pulled back her robe from her side just to expose her sword before she drew it for battle against the dragons. She could see the red dragons descending from the sky to attack the drifting boat as it bounced on top of the roughly rapid waters, nothing was more disturbing than the sky. Black clouds rolled overhead to the fading orange horizon as the sunlight vanished. (from Kyann’s offical author weebly site.)
After a brief sales count, which is the research we do on some books to see where they stand, we can see that this book is just not known enough to be a famous movie, but we may be wrong, some times we are. In the works is a screenplay written by Kyann Zorain, so maybe we’ll see more talent with writing of screen than novel. In short this novel is not the best known but may be the best new read for you fantasy, dragon, Harry Potter wizardly types. Even though, The stones of the hidden power resembles more of the Lord of the Rings adventure then anything else, give it a try. See what you think of this under priviledge novel and see where it sits with you readers on the shelves.
Not Wind in the Willows, but close. Wednesday, Oct 28 2009
Authors and Entertainment and New releases and YA novels and sci-fi kyannzorain 3:08 am
It’s not the beloved story of ”Wind in the Willows” written by Kenneth Grahame, but author Kyann Zorain writes something very close. “The diary of Twitched whiskers” is a young adult read for those who love the smart wit of talking animals. There is no characters like the overly rambunctious Toad, but we do have a character that comes close, a rat named Oliver. He loves his motor car and is very much a cheeky thinker. Readers may be comfortable with a timid, shy friend named Badger, not the harsh type in other story books holding such a character.
The diary of Twitched Whiskers is about an adult male orange and creamed colored cat who has stumbled into a strange village of talking animals called Strawberry Hills, not Fields. Kyann Zorain writes the life story through story of this cat where he goes, what he thinks and were he will end up. A premeditated series of this cat that starts new years and ends every christmas. Readers who have viewed this story say it’s a good read but not one that will make it on store shelves, if it even gets past the agents to be published. Still Kyann pushes forward with this new novel hoping somewhere in the world it will find a home in the hearts of readers. It is written in the format of story book mixed with journal or diary entries of whatever the cat, Twitched, is thinking. It does give mood to the story, but is it really what readers want?
Kyann Zorain is best known for stories containing dragons, witchcraft not one that is a life story of a cat. With the publication of “The stones of the Hidden Power part one: the fight for freedom” Kyann’s first novel publication,not the best but the first, she is trying her hand at a different genre of story telling. I guess being a writer with high ambitions, you may need to be good at writing more then just your usual. Yet Kyann is not seeing part two of “Stones” out any time soon making “The dairy of Twitched Whiskers” her next novel assignment. She is proud, however, of “The stones of the Hidden Power” but thinking Twitched can make the rebound needed for a long successful writing career. “The diary of Twitched Whiskers” is for now just idea sheets passed about for reader approval, any necessary changes will be made at a later date before this loveable story goes to print. Sadly, this story is not going to be released any time soon, so if you were thinking of what to get your young readers for the Christmas season this one will have to wait. You may be able to read an excerpt or two on Kyann’s official web site www.kyannsbooks.weebly.com Her twitter pages reflect many “Hooray” and “Doom, gloom for my book” while she is in her writing process. She tells what she thinks about writing, “In order to have a great story you need to have every moment, event, with the right proportions readers will adapt to or you’ll lose them in the middle of the story. It won’t make sense to them and they will never pick up any more of your books.”
Kyann revealed much when interviewed last year by a fan forum constructed for the Harry Potter actors James and Oliver Phelps, who play the Wesley twins, Phelps twins annoymous. Kyann undoubtedly regrets her writing ”The Stone of the Hidden Power” for them and farther more will do massive revisions to the novel. Good news for anyone with a first publication! May be worth something in near future. As for Twitched, he’s next in line of novels Kyann’s writing that will be published. He has pawed his way to the front of the line of stacks of manuscripts she has written, so we also have good feeling for a mangy middle-aged cat. But will a middle-aged cat be good for young readers? Will they relate to him, his friends or to his life? Maybe not, but it still is a fun journey of a cat nonetheless.
More on Kyann Zorain, www.myspace.com/kyannzorain, http://twitter.com/kyzorain and at her personal official site www.kyannsbooks.weebly.com and let us know what you think of her writing. Do you think she’s got what it takes to be a long time or famous writer?
Saying hello to a world of enriched readers. Thursday, Mar 26 2009
Uncategorized Authors, books, dragons, fantasy, magic, new in the world, readers kyannzorain 6:42 pm
Hello! I’m Kyann Zorain, author of the stones of the hidden power trilogy. This is my first blog here at word press, but my first blog I’ve written in many months, so please bear with me. Let me shine some light on the works I have written and see if we cannot create a little on line buzz. I’m not going to re-type my synopsis to my book, if you care to read it it can be found virtually everywhere on line where you buy books. Instead, I think I’ll just say hello to the world of readers who take their time in understanding the words of another, for entering into a new world, journeying to another faraway land to battle dragons, wizards, trolls or other various monsters, or just reading for a way to fall in-love with at perfect person, to own that perfect house, to have what you don’t have in your reality life. To enter into a different media of the entertainment industry, so you can just melt away with the tides on a tropical beach and get away from the hussleand bussle of the office, school, traffic and annoying persons you would rather not deal with and forget about. It is you that has enriched not only your life reading the countless words in black on white pages spelling out words you wish you could have said, but the lives of every author and person you know to tell these great stories or articles to. It is the world of our enriched readers that enrich not only lives but the world.
Lately, we have seen a flood of terrific books on the best seller’s list, books such as Twilight, Harry Potter; as well as the return of old classics like The Lord of the Rings and the Cronicals of Narnia. And it is not just these few but many other classics written from the 18th, 19th and early 20th century, it is that golden mile that makes reading, and also writing if I may say so, a thrilling nature of it’s own. Writing in general is already an ”unnatural act” but to be able to manipulate that subject to create what we know of as literature is truly a fantastic art. However, let us not just stop there with those few greats and let us journey farther in to the world of reading. It is no different than listening to music, if you listen to music then listen to music, and it goes farther then popping in a C.D. once every 5min to an hour of whatever is out there on the pop list. How about the likes of Mozart, or Bach, or (you can choose the next composer here) opening up your senses while lifting the soul. If you read, then read. And we all know that goes deeper then what is just on the best seller’s list. I have read many manuscripts or sifted through many books on-line reading the synopsis, writing down the author and checking out more about them and what they have written. Like my heading of this post clearly says, “Saying hello to a world of enriched readers”, so enrich your lives and the lives of any one in the world. Share with them a new idea, feeling, point of view or the latest story you have read or will read, a little communication does go a very long way. Let us better the world and entice the sences hoping to make tomorrow a little bit better of a day to live.
“Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift that is why they call it the present.”
Kyann Zorain, author.
