I find it funny that it was depression, hopelessness and despair that drove me to writing and it is ironic that having begun writing I have found my true love and passion. I now ask the question when will I stop writing because as a writer there need not be any thought of retiring.
I thank Create Space for giving me the opportunity to self publish because when I heard all that publishing a book would entail it was too daunting.
This past Sunday a couple that bought a set of my books was all smiles as they told me their friend had borrowed one because she found it so inspiring. Another friend as I spoke to her this week said as soon as I have the other books ready she wanted copies.
I am still to work out promoting and advertising my books but it inspires me when someone that bought a copy quote from one of the books to tell exactly what they find inspiring.
Recently I have persons sharing ideas and possibilities for my books and I have been exploring offshoot ideas. It is fascinating that they are presently more than I can adequately handle but I have been recruiting help.
I end today quoting the words of a gentleman with regards to one of my books "It is not so much what you think of what you write but what the man who gets it in his hands does with it."
