Will I ever get a book published?

8-14-14

Writing a book is the easiest part of this whole adventure.I loved going with Will and Two Feathers on their adventures, both good and bad. Then came the revising part. That was harder. Marking out words I had worked so hard to say something just right and then deciding it wasn’t good enough or was in the wrong place or didn’t say enough and throwing it out was not fun. All that was hard but not scary. Sending my so very carefully put together words that I have worried over for so long for someone else to decide if they like it or not is really scary. It took courage to hit that send button or drop that package in the mailbox. Then, I have to wait weeks and weeks to hear back and if they don’t like it they simply don’t answer back at all. They just leave you hanging in the air (so to speak).

However, I am not going to give up. I have already started on book 2 of the Rootin’ Tootin’ Ruthie picture book series and have plans and ideas swirling around in my head for book 2 of the Pecos River Series, Murder on the Pecos River Ranch.

Check back ever now and then because I’ll keep my progress updated.
