My cousin has been writing for as long as I can remember. Though I remember it being poems and similiar things poetry related. She wrote her first book and it got published and we went through the email series with her as this book came from just an idea in her mind to being published, to the cover artists and everything. And now, voila, her book is on Amazon.com - Green With Envy by Malaysa. It's pretty exciting which is why I posted about it. I've yet to read it but first things first, I have to order it. :)

Congratulations to your cousin and to you too. It's really very exciting to have your works published, and it's in Amazon.com Wow! that's great. I'm also an author but my books do not have yet the ISBNs and they are just as yet in my website at

I'm not sure what publishing place she went through, but it all came together for her relatively quickly once she got with the people, there's a website or something of that nature for where's she published. I could always ask her for more information if you would be interested?
I'll definitely check out your site and read your work, I write also but I never seem to finish anything I start and I lose focus rather quick. LOL.

I looked all over Amazon trying to find it, and couldn't locate it. Do you have any more details about where I could take a look and possibly order it. I know how proud you must be of her. That is wonderful. I like supporting other writers through purchasing their books. Thanks.

I misspelled a few things which I didn't realize until I saw where my sister had wrote it down correctly.

Very glad to hear that you cousin has written a book and which has been published. Hoping to get a party from you .lol Even my uncle has written a book about tribes and their culture . He has written about tribes in India who are still following old rituals and are sort of raw meat eaters.

That is great news. Thank you for sharing with us. I understand you would like to help the sales figures but won't your cousin let you have a copy! Is it a novel? Does she just have one name not a surname as well? What is it about?

I don't know exactly what it is, checking on Amazon though, I read that it's only 40 pages long. I suppose it may be a short story of a sort? I have no idea. It would be difficult for me to write one full page more less 40 of them. LOL.
Her pen name is just one name, Malaysya. I have no idea why she chose that considering her real name is Shary, but it's all up to the writer really.
You're welcome, I wanted to share it somewhere. It's just exciting, I'd love to write a novel of my own but alas, I don't have that kind of focus and patience. :)
