A Milestone . . .?

After years of THINKING about it, I finally put together my thoughts and have written a book! Although I would prefer to have it picked up by a publisher, I'm thinking that self-publishing might be the way to go in order to keep my rights to the material. Anyway, I am the proud owner of a rough copy of a 140 page manuscript. I don't know what that will result in as a book format but probably not a huge book. Just have to sell a few more quilts and such to start the publishing process. What are the chances?

Must be in the writing mode as I am already working on another book. My computer area is cluttered with pages of ideas, rough drafts, and stacks of paper. If messy is the sign of a great mind, I'm a genius!

Naturally, the upcoming holidays takes time away from what I WANT to do with what I HAVE to do. Sigh . . .

Christmas baking starts next week after the freezer gets defrosted and ready for cookie storage. Word of advice: Never purchase anything except a frost-free freezer no matter how much you save. I'm just saying . . .
