Submitted!

My fingers are tired, my mind is exhausted, my heart is relieved.

Today I submitted the first draft of In a Stroke of Love to my editor.

All 49,354 words that I have poured over, rewritten, agonized over I released into the electronic air to arrive at the desk of my editor, Abby.  The timeline is for Abby to take one month to review, edit and return to me.

Leo and Gus, my cats, have been my constant companions and distractions through this process!

I am grateful for everyone who has encouraged me on this writing journey.

 I signed my book contract on May 22, 2023.

 I officially started writing this manuscript in October 2023.

 It has not been an easy task.

There were times when I read various chapters and thought to myself “this is good!” Then there were times I read it and thought it is all a waste. 

I believe that God called me to this 15 years ago and the timing is right now to deliver my story.  Truthfully, I am nervous and scared about the vulnerability that I share in these pages.

The completed work, Lord willing, will be out by November or December of this year. 

Now is my time to rest, rest from words and reliving memories! Submitting this manuscript is an incredible feat and I can’t believe I am at this stage. 

My plans for today – ICE CREAM!!
