YAY!! WOO HOO!! HAPPY DANCE!!
So, as part of the celebration I thought I'd repost the birth of a story from last year :)
Today is the day that I've been waiting for since June 2005. **tosses confetti into the air** That was the month I started writing my first book GRAPE BUBBLEGUM!
I've always wanted to write a book, but kept putting it off. Finally, one day while my daughter was home on one of her college breaks, she convinced me to just sit down and write and that's what I did. That day while eating a sandwich in my car at Schlotzky's Deli I grabbed a napkin and a red pen (it was the only one available in my car) I saw a young teen in my mind, crying in front of a mirror. I started scribbling...
It's been through several revisions and at one point, even placed in the 'never-to-see-the-light-of-day-folder' But it's here!
I'm so excited to share GRAPE BUBBLEGUM with you!
