A few years ago I felt very compelled to write a book (my dilemma: never doing it before). The thought to write a book was persistently in my mind but immediately I’d dismiss it for two reasons. First, I didn’t consider myself a “writer.” Second, I didn’t have a writing degree or know the first (correct) thing about writing. All I knew was how to write from my heart, but as I wrote the words kept coming.
Writing a book taught me many things, and several books on the craft of writing got purchased by me (I figured experts will teach me how to write correctly.) Now, the book is done and I feel proud of the accomplishment. I’m happy to have a new skill and to call myself a writer (a characteristic of mine I wouldn’t acknowledge.) My hope is that this book helps people in some way.
(The book is only available electronically (Kindle) but can be read on android or iOS through a downloaded Kindle app.)
