WELCOME to my website!

You have reached the on-line home of Barbara Hollace, author and editor.

I am also the founder of Hollace Writing Services to meet your writing and editing needs.

    On this website, you will find the seeds of my dreams. 

           My dreams are at various states of fulfillment. 

                Follow my journey and you will view the seeds,

     the seedlings, and the full grown trees as they develop.

   Check back often to review updates on new publications.

It seems like it was spring just a few minutes ago, and now fall is upon us. 

Thought I'd drop in for an update, while I take a break from writing and editing.

 Today is a special day, September 20, 2011, it's the official release of Dr. Bernie Siegel's book, "A Book of Miracles".

The reason why I'm excited is that my story, "A Community of Hope" is in the Holiday Miracles section of the book. 

It's a great read and I invite you to pick it up at your local bookstore. 

 

"Love is a Verb Devotional" by Gary Chapman is due to be released on October 1st. Another great idea for a Christmas gift, since Christmas is right around the corner.

 
Our research trip to Boston was very fruitful and now that summer is coming to a close and there won't be so many distractions, I'm ready to get back to my writing projects. I have been gathering lots of material over the summer and writing a few stories as well.

Have you been pursuing your dreams this summer? I hope so. A couple of weeks ago, I taught a writing workshop and ignited the writing spark in many new budding writers. There's always room for one more.  

I'll be back again soon with an update. 

               Life can be exciting when you follow your heart.

                                      Come along for the ride.

                                                             It's guaranteed to be an exciting adventure!

My Philosophy :

This favorite passage is both inspirational and motivational,
as I pursue my passion.

*  *  *  *  *  *

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond all measure.

It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?"

Actually, who are you NOT to be?

You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world.

There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.

We are all meant to shine, as children do.

We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us.

It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.

 And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.

As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

-- Marianne Williamson
