Well after the initial buzz, it is back to real life. Until I recover from paying the government all of my money and my renter bounced his check to me - I am hurting. All thoughts of buying a ton of books and having a book signing has been put on hold until my finances can rebound. The good news - I have a book out! How cool is that? Plus I sat down with the writing God - Ray Bradbury!
Now all thoughts are focused on projects at home that have been put on hold, and trust me, my fiance' has a back log of them, starting with gutting the kitchen and putting in new cabinets and range. I'm glad that she has a budget - right now I sure don't. But here we go again. I just finished two huge jobs at our desert property. A flagstone path that looks great! And, I replaced a broken slab floor in the living room, and tiled over it to perfection! Obviously I appreciate my own efforts.
So as the eyes begin to explore the book I am grateful I am busy. It takes my mind off of worrying about my writing skills. I hold tight to what my sister said after she edited the book: "I want to meet everybody in the book!" Obviously I had developed the characters enough for her to connect with them.
As I drove to work today I began to make connections with my book and Harry Potter - my favorite all time series - Sorry Mr. Bradbury. Mitch was similar to Malfoy and Mickey to Voldemort. Okay, this is a bit of a stretch but it did cross my mind. Maybe Johnny boy is really Herminey?
Happy reading
