I got some pretty unexpected, but exciting news that I must
share with my readers! I submitted a short
story from my blog to a publishing company and it has been accepted to be published
in a book being released in the spring of 2016.
The book is called “Feisty After 45” and it is an anthology of inspirational
and humorous stories from 25 other authors that will be featured along with
myself.
Mill Park Publishing will be publishing the book project and, of course, I’m looking forward
to working with them and learning more about the process. Please feel free to check out Mill Park Publishing website here for the official announcement and more details.
It's taken a few weeks for it to sink in and to gather my thoughts, but I am beyond grateful and honored to have this
opportunity! Writing and creating humor and life inspired essay’s/stories has been challenging, eye opening and
self-satisfying all at the same time.
I remember as a young girl writing in my diary, composing poems and keeping a journal in high school, only later
in life, to discover that this side of me eventually spilled out gradually
in other creative areas. I really never knew what to do with it.
I’m still in a learning curve and discovery mode, but absolutely
over the moon about this next venture!
Thank you to the people that have taken the time to stop by and read my blog, it means a lot that you do. Also, a giant thank you to those that have shown their support from the very beginning! Especially, when I was wrestling to continue with it. Most certainly, a special shout out to my mom for being my number one fan (naturally) and for shamelessly sharing and telling others about - A Square Of Chocolate.
Hang tight, I'll be sure to keep you posted on any new developments. Can't wait :)
