I want to apologize to everyone who reads this blog and has wondered where it's been lately. The fact is that I've been so busy writing my book manuscript that I haven't had time to blog. Whenever I'm in a writing mood, I'm working on the manuscript, and by the time I can't write anymore, there's no way I can work on a blog.
The good news is that all the hard work is paying off. My niece (with whom I'm writing the book) and I have finished the first half. We're on track to get it done by the end of the year. It will be a wonderful Christmas present to ourselves to have a completed manuscript.
Well, back to work. I'll try to poke my head up and post another blog soon, but I'll definitely be shouting from the rooftops when this manuscript is finished.
Blessings to all!

Thank you, Internet!
It's official: The internet is fantastic. I've never been one for new technology. My TV had shown State of the Union Addresses from about 10 different presidents, but I never noticed it was old until my brother bought me a new one. That's when I finally realized everything I was missing with my tiny, dark screen and lousy sound quality.
I also never expected to appreciate a computer so much - until I started using one, of course. Now I can't imagine how people ever wrote books on typewriters because word processing is so easy and convenient. I also love having all my music stored and available at the touch of a key.
I've been using the internet for awhile to send emails and surf for information, but it wasn't until recently that I started using it to help stay in touch with my clients and promote my business. Now I wonder why I waited so long!
With my website, Twitter, Facebook, and blog up and running, I'm able to communicate with both new and existing clients as well as people who I had lost touch with. I had been worried about leaving the psychic line I used to work at because I didn't want those clients to feel like I'd abandoned them. Turns out, some of them found me through my online presence. It's so good to hear from them and have a chance to catch up with what they've been doing.
Another added bonus of online networking is that I'm hearing from some former clients and friends of my mother's. It's been many years since she had to stop working due to health problems, but she left a lasting impression on the people she touched. They remember her fondly and are writing to tell me how much she meant to them.
So I love the internet and how it's allowing me to stay connected with the people I care about, as well as helping to forge connections with new people.
Many thanks to those of you who get in touch with me everyday. Blessings to you all!

Newest Project: A Book!
If I wasn't busy enough starting to conduct psychic readings on KEEN.com, I'm now working on a whole new project: I'm writing a book! It's something I've always wanted to do, and my mother enjoyed writing as well.
This manuscript is based on my years working as a psychic advisor, and I have to say that it's even more fun than I had imagined. The best way to describe it is as part memoir and part self-help book. My dearest hope for this book is that it will allow me to help more people than I can through individual readings alone.
For this book, I'm recollecting scores of stories about my years of performing psychic readings and explaining how I conduct those readings. These stories range from funny to happy to tragic and everything in between. There will literally be something for everyone in this book, and I'm so excited about it.
It will take awhile to complete this manuscript and get it into print, but I promise it will be worth the wait! I'll be posting periodic updates here, so please stay tuned.
Blessings to all!

Psychic Reading Feedbacks
It's a thrill to hear back from clients who are pleased with their psychic readings. Sometimes they call me with follow-up details about situations we've discussed previously, while sometimes they send me email, and sometimes they leave feedback at the KEEN website. No matter how my clients choose to contact me, it's an incredible feeling to know that I've made a positive difference in their lives. It's especially touching because it takes time for clients to go in and leave feedback. That extra time they're willing to share means that they want me to feel good and help me improve my future readings.
What's funny is that sometimes people who are new to the KEEN site are skeptical about whether the feedbacks that are listed there are really from actual clients. If you're wondering about that, let me reassure you: Yes, all of those feedbacks are from actual clients who I've spoken to on KEEN. They leave a star rating and many also offer written comments, both of which I greatly appreciate.
My goal is for 100% client satisfaction, but sometimes no matter how hard you try, it's impossible to please everyone all the time. So I look at my overwhelmingly positive feedback ratings and combine that with the fact that the vast majority of my clients call me back for follow-up readings, and I'm satisfied that I'm doing good work for my clients. Do I ever think, "I wonder if there was something else I could have said to help that client?" Of course I do. Like everyone else, I'm only human, so second-guessing myself comes with the territory. But during my readings, I generally feel like I've made a connection with the clients. Then when I learn that my clients are pleased with their readings, I'm overjoyed to hear those kind, encouraging words.
Many thanks to those of you who have taken the time to provide me with feedback following one of our readings, and also thanks to you who read that feedback and decide to pick up the phone and call me. My beloved clients truly make my work worthwhile.
Blessings to all,

Thanks to my beloved clients!
Since I began conducting psychic readings at KEEN.com in June, I've been thrilled by the reception I've gotten from my beloved clients. As I mentioned in a blog earlier this month, moving from one psychic line to a new one was an intimidating prospect. Would I find as many wonderful clients at KEEN? Would my old clients be able to find me? Would I enjoy my readings as much?
I'm thrilled to report that the answer to all those questions is a resounding yes! I've been welcomed with open arms by my new clients at KEEN, while many of my old clients have gone out looking for me and found me. To top it off, I'm enjoying my work even more now than I ever did before.
In other words, I want to send a huge Thank You to my beloved clients, both old and new. Every day I'm grateful for the opportunity to be a part of your lives, and I look forward to speaking with each of you.
I hope you have a happy and safe weekend. Blessings to all.

Psychic Readings 101
When I meet people and tell them what I do for a living, one of the first questions they ask is, "How do you conduct a psychic reading?" And they're not the only ones who are curious. Many of my clients - both new and old - admit to wondering about my process when they contact me for readings. Some first-time clients are downright nervous about their readings, since they don't know what to expect.
In order to answer this question, I've written the essay "Psychic Readings 101" and posted it on my website. Hopefully it will address both people's curiosity and their fear of the unknown. You can read the essay on my website by clicking here: http://www.louisehelenethepsychic.com/psychic%20readings%20101.html Afterward, I hope you'll call me for a demonstration of how a psychic reading can help you.
I look forward to talking to you.
Blessings to all!

Client Q&A: Send money to Nigerian prince?
I talk to so many clients every day who are eager to find true love. They are wonderful people with open hearts who just want to share their lives with someone special. Unfortunately, sometimes they're so eager to fall in love that the rational part of their minds takes a vacation. That's when I'm particularly glad that they contact me first before doing anything rash. The question below might seem like an extreme case, but I heard something very much like this recently. As always, details are changed to protect confidentiality.
Dear Louise Helene:
Please help me! I'm desperately in love with a wonderful man and the best part is that he's a Nigerian prince! Can you imagine? Ever since I was a little girl I've dreamed about being a princess in a fairy tale, and now my dreams are about to come true! Except for one little problem. He's trapped in Nigeria and needs $3000 so he can fly to America and we can be married. You see, rebels have taken over the Nigerian government and thrown him and his family out of the royal palace. They've even frozen all their bank accounts, so he can't buy a plane ticket.
You might be skeptical about him, and believe me, I was at first, too. We met over the internet and even though we've never seen each other in person, we've emailed every day for two months. He's sent me pictures of himself and he's tall, dark, and handsome, just like a prince should be. He even sent me a picture from when his family was still leading the government, and he was wearing a sash across his chest, just like you see on royals and diplomats in the movies. This man is the real thing!
Please tell me what to do. I love this man and can't stand to think that he's a political prisoner in his own home, but $3000 is a lot of money. None of my family or friends will lend it to me because they say this is a scam. What do you think? How can I help him?
Dody in Dallas
Dear Dody:
I'm very sorry to tell you this, but I think you should block Prince Charming's email address and not respond to him anymore. Sadly, this story sounds too much like a spam email that's been sent to millions of people around the world. The unfortunate truth is that there are a lot of people out there who want to take advantage of others. I strongly feel that this man is one of them.
You are a kind, loving person who can't stand to see someone else in pain, so you want to help him. But please understand that this man isn't really in pain. He's not telling the truth about his situation. He's not in danger. And he's not a prince.
One piece of advice that I often give my clients is to listen to their family and friends. Sure, sometimes one of them can get a false impression about your new boyfriend, but if everyone you talk to tells you the same thing, you should take it seriously. While you might be temporarily blinded by love or desire, those closest to you probably aren't, so they have valuable advice to share.
When love really does come for you - and I feel it will - you will know it. And it won't cost you $3000.
Blessings to all,
Louise Helene
