the book

I have been working on my book every day for the past week while John takes his afternoon nap. I decided that the housework could wait and I could put my book first. So even though the laundry doesn't get done until 9pm and the house is constantly cluttered, I am nearing the end of my first rough draft.  I'm no longer overwhelmed when I think about my book.  In fact, I am excited! 

There is a sign on my mantel that reads, "The WORLD Is waiting to hear your STORY"   My parents gave me this a couple years ago when I first began writing my book.  There have been times that it has pumped me up and times that it has made me feel ill not knowing if I would ever accomplish my goal.  I'm happy to say that for the first time in two years, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and it feels great!
