I wrote a book. I don't know how many of you know that. But I did. And I would be trying to get it published right now, but uhhh--- I'm leaving for a mission soon. Besides, I think there is still a lot of work to do on it before I'm fully prepared to publish it.
But when I get home...! That is my plan: to start working on publishing my book. It may take years. Heck, it's already taken me about 6-7 years to write the book. I started it when I was 14-ish. I wrote the words "THE END" when I was about 17-ish, and I have been working on it since then, revising, editing, adding more detail, etc.
I've been a little busy, so I haven't had a chance to work on my book lately--- like in the past four to five months or so. I did, however, look at it this morning. I'm a pretty good writer. No, really--- not too shabby. -lol-
Cutting and pasting was really fun. It worked, too. I felt iffy about a certain section I was reading and I couldn't figure out what was wrong. I switched some paragraphs around and it really helped. It was pretty awesome how I was able to piece it together, like a puzzle. And if I didn't like the changes, I could just cut and paste it back the way it was. I love writing, and I love talking about writing. I can't wait until I start tutoring again.

why should you have to wait until you come back? couldn't we get it published now? or at least start the process? what about an editor? isn't that what they're for?
I'm doing research. you don't leave till nov. that's plenty of time to get it published
i'm on the job.
-lol! I love you Thea!
My focus should be on my mission and researching for it. Bill Bryson was a start, but I want to do MORE research about Australia.
I appreciate your enthusiasm to helping me get my book published. Patience. It isn't quite ready yet.
Do some research on your own, if you wish. But my focus is on the mission, as it should be.
I think it's great that you wrote a book. I don't think I'll ever be finished with mine. I can't focus on one thing for that long. Wait til after your mission if you must, but don't ever give up on your dream of getting it published.
