Sorry for the long break between posts. I hope everyone had a memorable Thanksgiving. It seems this holiday gets lost between Halloween and Christmas. There was a time when each holiday was separated to enjoy individually. It started slowly. Christmas decorations would go up the week of Thanksgiving. Then the first of November and this year before Halloween. I find this so sad. As a nation and as individuals we have so much to be thankful for. So many things we take for granted. We spend far less time being thankful than we should. If we could really look around and see what we have, many things we don't even need... we are blessed.
I could continue on this subject for a long time, but this blog is really about something else. I am excited to have my first novel, Broken Pieces, released tomorrow, December 7th. Many thanks to TouchPoint Press for taking a chance on my writing ability. I was smart and hired an exceptional editor in Kimberly Coghlan, and through the process gained an awesome friend. While I have long awaited this dream to come true, tonight I find myself very vulnerable. So many of my friends and family are supporting my efforts. There will be much revealed that no one knows about...until now. Will people think of me the same? Will they like my writing? I have so many mixed emotions. I truly feel that this book was meant to be written. I am hoping that at least one person will benefit from the first part of my story. If they do, it will be worth the joy and the pain of writing and sharing.
Thanks to each person that reads my story.
