Filling my cup...
I LOVE WRITING!! Holy Cow! I feel like I'm finally filling my cup again :-) It feels so good to sit down with my laptop and live in my fantasy world for a few hours a day. Yes--I've enjoyed racking up the school credits, but it's just not the same kind of enjoyment. I just finished chapter 31!! I've written over 354 pages!! I know that other authors would think that to be a silly achievement, but it's the biggest work I've accomplished thus far. I get sooooo excited when I get responses after I send out chapters. I love the phone calls where I hear, "I had no idea! That's awesome!! What's going to happen next?" I have a neighbor who comes over to get chapters on a regular basis. She is almost more excited than I am!! It's really fun. She ran over in the freezing cold last night to get chapters 25-30. It's almost like repeating Christmas Eve over and over again. Anyway--for what it's worth, I've found my happy place. I think that's vital in this fast moving world.

I'm so glad you're writing again. It's going to be such a fun book. Sorry I wasn't much help with the initial reading. But I will be first inline (or online) to order a copy when it gets published.
Good Luck with the rest of your chapters!!! :)
What kind of book are you writing? That is the coolest that you are taking on such a challenge, well maybe it's not a challenge for you but it would be for me. You are an amazing woman!

354 pages? That is no small accomplishment! I don't think I wrote that much on my mission? :D. Glad to hear you are doing what makes you happy!
