Itโ€™s Gabriela Marie Milton hereโ€”some of you may also know me as Gabriela M. Iโ€™m delighted to reconnect with some of you after a long period of time.

I apologize, but I didn’t realize you weren’t receiving my posts by email (one of my old followers wrote to me asking me if I still blog). I sincerely hope that all my followers and subscribers (some of whom have been with me since 2017, when I first started blogging) are well and happy. Especially for those who stopped blogging, I miss you dearly, and I hope to reconnect with you again. Please reach me at literaryrevelations@pm.me , on IG @Gabriela_Marie_Milton and on X @shortprose1

Life and exciting new projects kept me busy. Iโ€™m thrilled to be back and eager to share all the wonderful things happening in our creative community!

A beautiful painting from Hikari for me and a poem by me – Gabriela Marie Milton – for Hikari

My gorgeous followers.

I was absolutely overwhelmed with joy when I learned that Hikari had crafted a stunning piece of art just for me. Her incredible generosity and unmatched talent brought tears to my eyes. The way she wielded those masterful colors struck a chord deep within me, igniting an emotional blaze that I couldn’t contain. I wept, and in the throes of that powerful inspiration, I penned a heartfelt poem dedicated to Hikari.

Painting by Hikari

Poem by Gabriela Marie Milton


Concentrated smell of roses
Blooms in the night of white spirits
Heavy perfume on midnightโ€™s skin
Thorns soft like tongues in prayers

Why do you think my love
You know the secret language of roses โ€“
The secrets they carry in soft petals’ glow.
The legend speaks of tears and blood
Of the day when the Goddess ripped her clothes
In the bourns-
Who told you, darling that roses are love
They are nightingales caught in blue fingered thorns

An excerpt from my novel coming up next year – Spanish Language

Dear followers,

As I shared in a previous post, I have completed a novel in Spanish that has stirred my soul. The exhilarating journey of translating it into English has already begun, igniting my excitement. Whether you read it in English or Spanish, my hope is that this heartfelt novel will captivate readers like you next year. Till then, an excerpt in Spanish for you:

Excerpt in Spanish

โ€“Anastasia, querida, Jezabel me contรณ una noche que en aquellos cinco aรฑos habรญa estado enamorada de un joven cientรญfico, que trabajaba en uno de los laboratorios de bioquรญmica de la Ciudad. Creo que vivรญa en un barrio antiguo, por la Calle Robbia. Una sola vez, segรบn sus palabras, Jezabel habrรญa subido las escaleras estrechas y oscuras que llevaban al departamento de รฉl. Me dijo que el hombre la habรญa agarrado en sus brazos y se habรญan quedado asรญ, uno junto al otro, tendidos en la cama, mirรกndose a los ojo largo rato. La cama se encontraba pegada a la pared, en la parte derecha de la habitaciรณn; encima habรญa una ventana sin cortinas. En la parte izquierda se hallaba un escritorio y frente a la puerta habรญa estantes llenos de libros.

La mujer se detuvo un momento de su silbido, tomรณ un trago de agua y continuรณ.

โ€“Jezabel desabotonรณ la camisa del hombre lentamente. El cual llevaba una camisa negra, de una seda pesada, como la del Continente, con botones diminutos, de color nรกcar. Se quedaron un rato mรกs callados, despuรฉs Jezabel se incorporรณ, abandonando la cama cubierta con una manta amarillenta, y se fue.

โ€“ยฟY?

โ€“Y nada, Anastasia, esto es todo.

Anastasia la mirรณ, consternada. ยกAl infierno con Lady Swartley y con todo! ยกEsta mujer le estaba tomando el pelo! ยฟQuรฉ es lo que querรญa decir, en realidad? ยกY cรณmo era posible que Jezabel conversara con otra mujer sobre el material de que estaban hechos los botones que apenas habรญa desabrochado de la camisa del pecho de su amante! ยฟY cรณmo podรญa conocer Lady Swartley la ubicaciรณn exacta del mueble en aquel cuarto, como si ella misma lo hubiera arreglado? Su propia pregunta la dejรณ frรญa. Quizรกs la propia inglesa haya arreglado el mueble del cuarto de la Calle Robbia. No, no podรญa ser, iba demasiado lejos en sus suposiciones. Si habรญa algo verdadero en esta historia, entonces Lady Swartley debiรณ haber protagonizado la escena aquella y no Jezabel. Pero รฉsta siguiรณ, masticando papas fritas.

LITERARY REVELATIONS ACHIEVES A GLOBAL MILESTONE โ€“ FEATURED IN IMPORTANT OUTLETS SUCH AS ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, ย MONING NEWS, INTERNATIONAL TIMES, AND MANY OTHERS

Exciting News

Dear readers and subscribers,

I am thrilled to share excellent news on behalf of Literary Revelations (lr_publisher) and myself, Gabriela Marie Milton, as its founder. Our journey, driven by an enduring love for literature and art and a commitment to elevating voices in the literary world and art, has reached a global milestone: we have been featured on ABC, NBC, CBS, Morning News, International Business Times, and many other notable platforms.

This recognition is not only a testament to the vibrant work we do at Literary Revelations but also an acknowledgment of the authors and readers who form the heart of our community. From championing bold new voices to curating collections that resonate across cultures and generations, our mission continues to attract wide attention.

We are deeply grateful for the opportunities to share our story and vision with such distinguished audiences. Being spotlighted on these renowned networks underscores the impact of our efforts and encourages us to keep pushing the boundaries of literary innovation.

From the features:

Founded in 2022 by acclaimed poet and editor Gabriela Marie Milton, Literary Revelations has swiftly established itself as a distinguished independent publishing house, dedicated to poetry, short stories, art, and novels. In a short period of time, the press has carved a respected position in international literary and artistic circles, with every book released to date achieving #1 Amazon bestseller status in multiple categories, as well as recognition in curated exhibitions and museums abroad.

The press distinguishes itself through a carefully curated editorial approach, emphasizing literary excellence and artistic vision over quantity of publication. This commitment to selectivity has allowed Literary Revelations to stand out in a market where mass publication often overshadows quality.

Unlike many open-submission journals, the editorial board of Literary Revelations Journal follows a rigorous review process, ensuring that published works maintain high literary standards.

The journal has featured prominent voices, including interviews with figures such as Gaetano Camillo, who was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature. Through such initiatives, the journal has become a space where emerging and established voices converge to explore the evolving landscape of contemporary literature.

Lullscapes in Light

A few words about this haiku

Despite its brevity, a haiku can carry profound emotional weight. Its power lies in what is left unsaidโ€”the spaces between words and the silence after the final syllable. This is truly a fabulous piece that lingers in the mind, echoing with gentle wisdom and stirring wonder. To analyze Noaki Kimura’s haiku is to appreciate his artistry and embrace the delight it brings to the reader.

My dear followers.

Lullscapes in Light and Shadow by Naoki Kimura, is now an Amazon bestseller and Top New Release in Black and White Photography.

I am deeply grateful to everyone who bought the book or spread the news.

I need your help more than ever.

WHY?

Because on Tuesday, the four major publishers of the world release their books, usually dragging down self-published books and small independent publishers. Literary Revelations is so proud of its accomplishments, but it is not Penguin Random House.

Literary Revelations

FOR YOUR INFO

Penguin Random House, the publisher encompassing the “Penguin” name, reported record global revenues of โ‚ฌ4.9 billion (approximately $5.3 billion) for 2024, driven by higher book prices and broad title offerings. This marks an increase from โ‚ฌ4.5 billion ($4.92 billion) in 2023, continuing a trend of rising sales despite earlier challenges. 

That said, you understand.


You can find Lullscapes in Light and Shadow here. https://www.amazon.com/Fine-Art-Photography-Lullscapes-Shadow/dp/B0FP9JL6TL/


ABOUT THE BOOK.

The title โ€œNagikeiโ€ (ๅ‡ชๆ™ฏโ€“Lullscapes) distills the profound tranquility and harmony embodied in โ€œNagiโ€ (ๅ‡ช, Lull), weaving it seamlessly with the subtle appreciation for nuance and evanescence inherent in โ€œKeiโ€ (ๆ™ฏ, scenery or emotional landscape). In Naoki Kimuraโ€™s fine art photography and poetry album, this fusion becomes not merely an artful label, but a gentle invocationโ€”an opening into a world where, between the shifting of light and shadow, time decelerates and the soul glides quietly toward contemplation.

Lullscapes in Light and Shadows is an artwork of interwoven monochrome vistas, with a careful curation of poetryโ€”haiku, tanka, free-form verse, and brief prose reflections. Each literary piece is chosen to echo or counterpoint the visual narrative, inviting us ever deeper into the dialogue between image and word, between perception and emotion. The result is not a collection to be hurried through, but a presence to be lived withโ€”an artifact for repeated visitation, wherein each encounter reveals new shades of meaning.


Nagikei is a quiet revolutionโ€”a call to reclaim the present moment from the relentless tide of haste and distraction. It is a living testament to the possibility of beauty in stillness, a sanctuary for those willing to see with eyes attuned to the delicate music of impermanence.
