My book is coming out available to the public in the next week or two. I looking forward to hearing from people out there about how they enjoyed the story. So far I have sold numerous copies to grandparents to read to their grandkids and parents who have seen the stable and wanted to know the story behind it. I’m hoping this is the beginning of many stories ahead. I have already started working on three more and should be available by next Christmas. Hope your holidays are peaceful.
This whole book writing and publishing is a whole new can of worms for me. I feel like Im already three months behind in what I should be doing and what I should have done. Friends and family seem to be purchasing their own copies and the feedback has been strong. I guess if I bought something and didn’t like it I wouldn’t say anything at all – but I guess thats just being Canadian. I have many stories – most can be made for kids and some definitely not for the younger hearts from my time in the emergency room. I have never written in a blog before but thats ok because I have never read a blog before. So the journey begins and the lessons are being learned. I have three or four more books in the pipeline having the storyboards just being drawn up now and hoping to complete one or two over the Christmas break. Love to hear from the readers as well as anyone who has more experience than I at this book writing / publishing stuff. I guess that finishes blog post #1 for now
