The One Redeemed Blog Tour - Stop Two @colleenchesebro.bsky.social #writingcommunity #newrelease #Diasodz #paranormal #fantasy @YvetteMCalleiro

Hello, beautiful readers! Today is day two of The One Redeemed's blog tour. I am honored that Colleen M. Chesebro, a beautiful author and poet, is sharing her space with me today. Colleen opened a world of syllabic poetry to me. Because of her, I gained an online community of poets.

Before you check out her post, I'd like to share one of her many books with you. If you haven't read her stories or poetry yet, this is a great one to read! Click on the book cover or title for the link.

Fairies, Myths, & Magic II: A Winter Celebration

by Colleen M. Chesebro

Here is my review:

I loved the first edition of this book, which focused on the summer solstice, so I was excited about reading this edition that focuses on the winter solstice! It did not disappoint! The author begins by explaining the various yuletide myths through the centuries around the world. Then, she breaks the book into different sections to dive deeper into each of the myths. Each section contains short stories and poetry that reflect upon that myth.

The author shares the research she conducted to make sure her stories were historically founded. It's incredible how many myths were created around Yuletide in cultures around the world. It was also surprising for me to see how many cultures included stories about females within their myths.

I love this author's poetry. She is gifted in capturing the essence of an idea in so few words, especially in her short stories. I loved losing myself in stories about fairies, goddesses, and the fae. While our generation tends to see these as mythical creatures, there was a time when people believed them to be very real.

I also loved that the author included a section at the end about crystals and how to use them (and other Yuletide symbols) to enhance your Yuletide celebrations. If you enjoy poetry and short stories or if you like learning about myths surrounding the holidays, I would definitely recommend this book.

Miracles & Ghosts Past: A Christmas Collection Two

by D.L. Finn

My 5-Star Review:

This was such a wonderful collection of holiday short stories. D.L. Finn never disappoints with her ability to weave heartbreak with holiday miracles. I read her first collection of holiday short stories and loved them, and this collection was just as great. I don't tend to enjoy historical fiction, but this author finds a way to make me love every story no matter which decade they take place in. From ghosts saving their loved ones from tragedy to heartfelt kindness of strangers, these stories tugged at my heart strings. If you enjoy holiday stories with a paranormal twist, you will love each of these! :-)

My Most Precious Gift - #TankaTuesday #tanka #poem #gift #poetrycommunity #poetry @YvetteMCalleiro

Hello, beautiful readers! Today, I am hosting the #TankaTuesday Poetry Challenge. The prompt focuses on the word gift. As you can read over at the #TankaTuesday site, I am not a fan of gift giving or receiving. For most of my adult life, it has caused me anxiety. Instead, I prefer creating an experience where the giver and receiver create memories together. Luckily, my friends and my families love me enough to accept this modification.

The prompt asks for poets to write a poem using either the noun or verb version of gift. I chose to go with the noun version and wrote a tanka.

 

my heart swells with love

from a babe to adulthood

my most precious gift

my caterpillar now flies

sharing his kindness with all

The One Redeemed Cover Reveal and Blog Tour #Diasodz #TheOneRedeemed #BlogTour #BookCover #redemption #newrelease @YvetteMCalleiro

Hello, beautiful readers! I am so happy to share with you all that The One Redeemed has a release date: December 16th! It has taken me eight years to finally finish this story, and I'm really happy with it. Let's start with the book cover. Staying true to the series, the cover focuses on Drake's eye and one of his powers - controlling lava. As this is his redemption story, the new moon felt perfect for this book.

Book Blurb:

Drake had been an agent for chaos, a tyrant who focused only on his desires, even when they hurt those he claimed to love the most. Would dying to protect his daughter redeem him? Or would he spend an eternity reliving his biggest regrets?

Electrifying pain coursed through Drake’s veins as he sacrificed his life to save his daughter. When he becomes conscious again, reality sets in. He is dead. While he is overcome with grief, his mortal enemy, Goddess, offers him a path to redemption. In order to find his way back to his children, he must first revisit his past and atone for his choices. The journey will be brutal, and his outcome is not guaranteed.

Failure is not an option for Drake. He will do anything to get back to his children to make amends for his actions, even if it means sacrificing himself all over again.

To celebrate the release of this book, some of my favorite bloggers have agreed to participate in my blog tour. I hope you will join us on this tour! More details to come soon! :-)

Façade- #FFFC #Abhanga #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity @YvetteMCalleiro

Hello, beautiful readers! Another busy week for me. I've been working on my book tour that will begin this week (I think...lol!). I'm still putting the final touches on it. So, this is my first time to sit and look at the awesome writing prompts this week. 

I've chosen to go with Melissa's Fandango Flash Fiction Challenge. She provided the beautiful picture below as inspiration. While the vines are gorgeous, the dark indoors pulled my attention. I wrote an Abhanga, which is a poem of four lines with a syllabication package of 6-6-6-4.

Façade

survival is the goal

November 2025 Book Reviews #bookreview #books #amreading #readingcommunity #shortstories @KarensStories @YvetteMCalleiro

Hello, beautiful readers! The sun sets earlier, making the days seem shorter, and my days are so busy that I definitely feel that time has been robbed from my days. Still, I do my best to find time to read. I only made it through one book this month. I thought I'd finish the book I'm currently reading, but I'm not done just yet. I'll review that one next month.

Five Stories Short: A Supernatural Quintet

by Karen Black

Genre: Contemporary Fantasy

Pages: 250

Book Blurb:

Take a supernatural tour with this collection of contemporary fantasy stories. Read with an open mind and you just might begin to wonder if all things could be possible.

Are spirits hovering around us? Do ghosts watch over us? Are your pets communicating telepathically? Can card readers predict the future? Is it possible to see the little people? Do artifacts or fetishes have power? In this collection, the answer to all those questions is yes. But the real question is whether the stories are pure fiction or based on fact.

The Legacy: Lydia is a psychic. When her grandson becomes the catalyst for a spirit's plot to kill his mother, she joins forces with a natural witch to defeat the entity. As a battle rages, Lydia learns she has more power than she'd realized.

Laughing Hills: The little people of Laughing Hills call on centuries of magic to stay safely hidden after their guardian is killed and their entire community is placed in jeopardy.

Mommy, Look: With her husband in a coma, finances tight, and a toddler to raise, Bianca needs help. But when it comes, it's in disguise and is provided by someone she didn't believe existed.

The Ancient Ones: After Brian and Tammy visit an antique shop, their lives are changed by a lion and a raven.

The Last Act: While renovating an old theatre, Carolyn is befriended by Jolene, an actress who haunts the building and who takes their friendship quite seriously.

My Review:

Every single one of these stories were fabulous! They all focus on some kind of paranormal entity, which I loved. Not all of them end with a happy ending. Well, I guess it depends on which character you are rooting for. Lol! Each story is captivating. The characters are well created, even though these stories are short. The plot moved smoothly and kept me wanting to turn the pages. This author is a master storyteller, and I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who enjoys paranormal stories! :-)

Have you read any great books this month? I'd love to hear from you. :-)

Giving Thanks - #TankaTuesday #DoubleEnnead #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity #gratitude #thanksgiving @YvetteMCalleiro

Hello, beautiful readers! I have had a wonderful week off from work. My son came down from college, and I enjoyed every minute with him. This week, Melissa at #TankaTuesday invited us to write a Double Ennead about what we are grateful for. A Double Ennead consists of three stanzas. Each stanza has five lines with a syllabication pattern of 6-5-11-6-5.

Giving Thanks

open your soul fully

get a glimpse of grace

fluttering butterflies to flowering buds

beauty is all around

waiting to be seen

take a walk through nature

embrace time to ground

feel the sweet serenity surrounding you

absorb Gaia's goodness

such peaceful moments

joyous family time

rambunctious laughter

board games, camping trips, movie nights, bike riding

never a dull moment

always full of love

The Sands of Time - #WDYS #TankaTuesday #Shadorma #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity @YvetteMCalleiro

Hello, beautiful readers! I have finally found a moment to write. Today is my last day of work before I have a week off for Thanksgiving break. I am looking forward to turning off my alarm for the next week. I am most excited about my son coming home for the holiday! I miss him like crazy and can't wait to wrap my arms around him. 

I've decided to combine these two prompts because the image reminded me of my trip with my son to the upper and lower Antelope Canyons in Arizona a few years back, a trip that holds wonderful memories for me. My poem isn't about my trip, but the memory drew me to the photo.

The first challenge is Sadje's What Do You See? prompt, which contains the photo I mentioned above. The second challenge is the #TankaTuesday Poetry Challenge where Willow invites to write a Shadorma Prose. A Shadorma poem has six lines with a 3-5-3-3-7-5 syllabic pattern.

The Sands of Time

I stand before you in awe. My racing mind calms as wonder sifts through my frivolous worries and seeks out my soul. Your grandeur reveals how I am but a passing thought in the great scheme of existence, and I embrace both the simplicity and depth of such a revelation. The hardened scars on your walls tell of your troubles and of your resilience while the soft sands sifting beneath my feet exude your grace and strength, knowing that only through flexibility and change can one continue to exist.

beautiful

nature's miracle

perfectly

imperfect

wonders for all to behold

embrace sands of time

Sadje's What Do You See? prompt

#TankaTuesday Poetry Challenge

The Answer Is... #FFFC #WDYS #W3 #TankaTuesday #poem #Nonet #poetry #poetrycommunity @YvetteMCalleiro

Hello, beautiful readers! Another busy week for me, but finally, it was in a great way! After months of dealing with a nightmare of a contractor, my kitchen is finally complete. Also, my parents came down to visit, and we had a wonderful dinner with my siblings to celebrate my dad's 80th birthday. Still, as they were staying at my house, it left me no time for much of anything else. They left this morning for a cruise, and since my weekend is beyond packed, I figured I'd use this time to try to write a poem.

I've missed so many wonderful prompts lately and wanted to partake in as many as I could. Luckily, four of them all seemed to have the same theme for me: love. (Or, at least, I made it fit...lol!) Melissa's Flash Fiction Fandango Challenge, Sadje's What Do You See? prompt, and #TankaTuesday's Poetry Challenge all provided images that reminded me of love. We'ave Written Weekly (W3) encouraged us to write a poem of 8-16 lines with internal rhyme. So, I chose to write a Nonet, which consists of nine lines and added internal rhyme to some of the lines.

 

The Answer Is...

magical charms within someone's arms

simple caress softens the soul

loving touch warms the heart much

days shine bright with a smile

sweet nothing whispers

tender kisses

hands held and

warm hugs

love

A Moonlit Veil - #TankaTuesday #tanka #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity @YvetteMCalleiro

 

Hello, beautiful readers! I tried every day last week to find a moment to write poetry, but every day got away from me. By the time I was able to rest, it was past 8 pm, and my brain was too exhausted to function. I missed a lot of great prompts last week, but I wanted to make the effort to at least write about the prompt I created for the #TankaTuesday prompt last Tuesday. The prompt asked writers to focus on the word veil. So, I wrote a tanka.

(image courtesy of @Iffany on Pixabay)

souls from yesteryear

cross beyond the moonlit veil

a balm for loved ones

visits comfort grieving hearts

if only for brief moments

Autumn's Celebration - #TankaTuesday #Tan-Ku #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity @YvetteMCalleiro

Hello, beautiful readers! I cannot believe another week has already passed. I don't seem to have a moment to rest. I can finally say that my kitchen is finally done! A project that should have been completed in early June is finally complete. Now, I just have to deal with the nightmare of a contractor to finish the final paperwork and payment. I cannot wait until I never have to deal with them again.

For this week's #TankaTuesday Poetry Challenge, Melissa invites us to write a Tan-Ku, which is a poetry form written by two people where one person writes a tanka and the other responds with a haiku. The challenge is to write a Tan-Ku sequence. Melissa provided the first tanka, so I've added a haiku and then began the second set with a tanka. I've put Melissa's words in blue and my additions in black.

Autumn Celebrations

fireside marshmallows

melting onto graham crackers

season of the s'more

cheery trick-or-treaters

like king size candy bars

dance around fire pit

Halloween's moon opens gates

spirits cross the veil

crisp breeze blows through hair

a welcomed shift in weather

Gaia repaints leaves

vivid transient canvas

I love nature's masterpiece

blustery evening

leaves roll across the street

crinkling underfoot

October 2025 Book Reviews #bookreview #books #amreading #readingcommunity #vampires #dragons #DragonGuild #BDB @PTLPerrin @JRWard @YvetteMCalleiro

Hello, beautiful readers! I can't believe how busy this month has been. I finally found a way to reintroduce exercise into my life, which means I'm also reading again while I'm on the elliptical. Happy me! Here are the books I was able to finish this month:

Lover Forbidden

by JR Ward

Genre: Vampire Romances

Pages: 432

Book Blurb:

The aristocracy is making a run for the throne in this latest thrilling, star-crossed paranormal romance entry in J.R. Ward’s #1 New York Times bestselling Black Dagger Brotherhood series.

When Lyric goes out for the night, she’s not ready for a brush with death—and she’s really not ready for the male who comes out of nowhere and saves her. Her family, especially her father, Qhuinn, are so relieved she’s okay, but all she can think about is her mysterious savior.

Without telling anybody, she seeks out Devlin, and they are immediately drawn to one another. Her near-death experience has given her a fresh appreciation for life and the desire to live it to its fullest, but she has no idea that he’s hiding a secret—or that he could be the key to ending the war between the Black Dagger Brotherhood and the lessers forever.

My Book Review:

This book was everything I'd hoped it would be. I have been reading this series for about sixteen years, and I have loved every book, but this one just felt filled with so much love in it. The OGs were all back, but seeing them as parents just really made my heart swell with even more adoration for them. And then, the new generation was on fire!

I loved how this book weaved several storylines together. Lyric and Dev's story's slow buildup was just perfect for me. And the epic reveal of who Dev is was fantastic! I knew something was up, but the surprise even got me! I am not into spoilers, so I'm not going to spill it here, but holy Lassiter! That was awesome!

My heart broke for Blay/Quinn's family as the inevitable happened, but it was so beautifully written. LW's development was awesome, though I'm stuck between being angry with him and feeling sorry for him right now. Lol! And Bitty... love her and her strength! 

I was hooked from page one, and I enjoyed every minute of this story. I cannot wait to read the next one! :-)

A Bloom in Winter 
(The Black Dagger Brotherhood World)

by JR Ward

Genre: Vampire Romances

Pages: 461

Book Blurb:

#1 New York Times bestselling author J. R. Ward brings the heat in the depths of winter with another sizzling Black Dagger Brotherhood holiday book!

For his entire life, and especially during his century in the prison camp, Apex never believed the bonded-male vampire myths. But when he crossed paths with a sexy wolven, the assassin was done being a lone wolf himself. Tragically, fate had other plans for them, and in the decades since, the world has held little interest—and even less warmth—for him.

He has never forgotten the male, however...

Even after all this time, Callum remains haunted by the horrible abduction that destroyed him down to his marrow those many years ago. Living as a loner, drifting from place to place, the wolven has finally returned to upstate New York—and he is not expecting to see the vampire who has always been on his mind.

As a plot to overthrow the King threatens the Brothers down in Caldwell, Apex and Callum find themselves face to face—and caught up in a deadly, treasonous plot. Can two lonely, lost souls find a way back to each other...or will destiny once again condemn their hearts to cold isolation?

My Book Review:

First of all, this book cover is gorgeous! When I read the Lair of the Wolven series, I was left needing to know what happened to Callum and Apex. JR Ward wrote other books, and I thought maybe we would never find out. Luckily, I was wrong, and I am so happy I was. This book was amazing! I read it after reading Lover Forbidden because I just couldn't wait to read LF. Had I read this book first, I would have been introduced to the Whestmorel issue earlier. Still, it didn't really affect my enjoyment of either book.

I loved that Mayhem was back in this book and played such a great role. I found the interactions with Blade quite interesting and am curious if we will see more of him and the wolven in future books. I loved how their paths crossed with the BDB and Mayhem's new role in the society. That alone should mean we see more of him, right?

Sadly, I have read every book in this series, including the side books. I really need JRW to get a new story published and soon!

Aerie (Dragon Guild Book 2)

by PTL Perrin

Genre: Teen & Young Adult Magical Realism

Pages: 332

Book Blurb:

Trained for battle, bonded to her dragon, and with a growing interest in Elio, the leader of Dragon Guild, Gabri could lose it all.

A young warrior in the Dragon Guild, Gabri and her beloved dragon, Makani, fly patrol through the inner world of Sanctum with Elio and his golden dragon, Kealohi. While investigating an abandoned enemy outpost, Gabri is captured and isolated from Makani and everyone she loves. Imprisoned and implanted with a mind control device, can Gabri break free, unite with Makani, and reclaim her lost memories?

Together with Elio and his dragon, Gabri and Makani embark on a quest to reclaim their world from a sinister enemy. As they face formidable foes and uncover hidden truths, their bonds of friendship and courage will be tested like never before. Will they succeed in their mission?

With themes of courage, friendship, and the power of love, Aerie invites readers into an enchanting adventure filled with danger, hope, and the unbreakable bonds between humans and dragons.

My Review:

This book was a fantastic sequel to Sanctum. Gabri continues to create a new home in Aerie, and her bond grows even stronger with those she loves. Shadow, Ozul, and Kierra continue with their evil plans. And Donny and family refuse to give up on reconnecting with Gabri no matter what it takes. 

When Gabri gets kidnapped by Ozul, the strength of her bond with Makani, Ting, and Elio proves its power. Once Donny and family finally find Gabri, Donny realizes much has changed for Gabri, including his feelings. The introduction of Gabri's first love causes much angst for Elio. Who will Gabri choose and how will that affect all their lives? You've got to read it to find out!

This book has everything - adventure, magic, fantasy, danger, love, and dragons! I highly recommend this series and can't wait to rejoin this amazing world in book 3. :-)

My Calming Blue - #W3 #triolet #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity @YvetteMCalleiro

Hello, beautiful readers! For this week's Wea've Written Weekly (W3), Sarah Wiley invites us to write a Triolet. This form consists of eight lines with an ABaAabAB pattern. Lines 1, 4, and 7 are the same as are lines 2 and 8. The challenge was to write about an ordinary object. An extra challenge was to write with ten syllables per line, which I did.

I chose to write about my water bottle. As many of you have learned through my posts, I have an anxiety disorder. One of the many ways I've learned to manage it is with magnesium L-threonate. It's a powder I put in my water every day, and it helps me stay calm. Since I drink it slowly throughout the day, my bottle has gone with me on every trip I've taken. Lol! So, here is my poem.

My Calming Blue

my blue water bottle goes where I go

it's my security blanket of calm

its contents allow me to ebb and flow

my blue water bottle goes where I go

powerful against any bout of woe

every sip removes any trace of qualm

my blue water bottle goes where I go

it's my security blanket of calm

Absorb/Repel - #TankaTuesday #haiku #tanka #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity @YvetteMCalleiro

Hello, beautiful poets! I hosted at #TankaTuesday this week, so despite my busy weekend, I'm participating in the prompt. This week, we are writing syllabic poetry using the words absorb or repel. I decided to write a haiku using the word absorb.

(image courtesy of @FeeLoona on Pixabay)

feet dug deep in sand

release what no longer serves

absorb healing vibes

And then I chose to write a tanka for repel.

(image courtesy of @jplenio on Pixabay)

darkness descends fast

time change hinders nature's way

repel winter woes

time to rest, rejuvenate

there's beauty in all seasons

Graceful Aging - #TankaTuesday #sijo #aging #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity @YvetteMCalleiro

Hello, beautiful readers! I've been MIA all week again. I've had a horrible head cold, and it's been hard to think clearly with a stuffy head. I'm still dealing with the cold, but it's on its way out. I've missed some great poetry prompts this week, but I'm doing what I can.

Today, I've attempted to write my first sijo for the #TankaTuesday poetry challenge for this week. Willow invites us to write a sijo about the October Hunter's Moon or the aging of the year. A sijo is usually about nature and contemplation. There are three lines, though it is sometimes written into six lines, which is what I've attempted to do. The first line sets the theme or problem. The second elaborates or develops it. The third line brings the idea to a close or provides a twist. 

Last weekend, before I got sick, my sister, niece, and I went to visit our parents for my mom's birthday. We had a wonderful time. My mom has several autoimmune issues as well as leukemia, but she's a fighter. Every birthday with her is a blessing, and so she was my inspiration for this poem.

Graceful Aging

birthday celebration reminds us

of mom's aging body

brilliant sunsets mask the darkening

finality of night

we shall treasure autumn's fall

into winter together

Divorce or Reconciliation? - #TankaTuesday #W3 #XplorationChallenge #haibun #prosimentrum #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity @YvetteMCalleiro

Hello, beautiful readers! It's been a while since I've been able to write poetry. I've missed you all. I've been prioritizing my health and trying to create a new routine for working out and going to sleep earlier than I have been, and it's cut into my poetry time. Eventually, I'll find a happy balance. This will be the only day I can write this week since I'm going to visit my parents and my son. So, I've decided to combine three poetry challenges.

The first is from #TankaTuesday, where Colleen invites us to use uncommon Autumn words from this site. I chose to use the word rudeneja, which means the way the world gently falls into autumn. It's meant to be an adjective, but I used it as a noun.

The second challenge is from Wea've Written Weekly (W3) where Reena invites us to write a poem that has both prose and poetry. She gave us two images to choose from, and the one I've chosen is what inspired my poem. Although I've written a haibun, it also counts as a Prosimentrum since the prose is more dominant (I think).

And the third challenge is Reena's Xploration Challenge #402 where she invites us to write about passages, doorways, thresholds, and transitions. With all that is happening right now, my muse went directly to the poem below.

Divorce or Reconciliation?

The constitution was supposed to be the threshold, the minimum expected of every citizen, especially politicians who swear an oath to uphold all of it. They were expected to perform their duties lawfully and honorably as laid out in our treasured contract. So, why are so many choosing to turn a blind eye to their responsibilities? Are they so short-sighted that they prefer to relish their few moments of power instead of recognizing the dismantling and destruction of the very values that held our democracy together? Our democracy was never meant to be one-sided. It was a promise among many to hold our laws and our decency above all personal gains. It was built on collaboration and compromise. It was solidified and infused with the human spirit, compassion for the least fortunate, and justice for all through our amendments. It was not meant for one party or one person to pervert its words and use it as a weapon against other citizens. It was not meant for one party to create mayhem and use malice against the other party. It was not written to divide and conquer but to unite and uplift. Will it honestly take a nasty divorce for us to realize we lost our most precious treasure forever?

intended chaos

wishing for rudeneja

democratic peace
