So I have been shopping this story up and down the block that I have written a book, and it is to come out at so and so date. Well lets just say I have learned a lot the last two years, and perhaps started my grey hair process a little early. But none of it matters at the end of the day. I could spend hours (which I have) crying about things that I have no control over, or I can put on my big girl pants and get over it and be productive.
Option two is what I have done my whole life. I never like to complain in general because there are people out there that have it far worse than I do, and I like to remain positive and be grateful for the things in my life. With that being said, I have chosen to look at my situation as a blessing. It is a blessing that I wrote a book that almost found success with the traditional publishing industry, it is a blessing that I have a great support system that wants to see the book in print as much as I do, and it is a blessing to be living in an era where self publishing isn't the taboo that it use to be.
I know that I will be doing the leg work which is fine because I worked in fast food for five years and if I can do that I can do anything. There is such a buzz locally around On My Way Home that is overwhelming and exciting. If everyone just spreads the word and incessantly call your local book store and ask them to stock On My Way Home we will be selling at a national level in no time.
I plan to update as much as possible and keep everyone informed. Thank you for the continued support and motivation! It is indeed priceless!
