So I’m doing something a little brave, a little outside of my comfort zone, a little thing really – I’m taking a course to write a book. Over the next 6 months, the plan is to write a book, get it edited, revised, revised again, get feedback, crowdsource the funds to publish it, revise it yet again, and then finally publish it. My very own creation, my very own grain of sand in an ocean of sand. Or at least that’s how I see it.
There will be more to come as my journey progresses. I start the online sessions this week and in a month start meeting regularly with a development editor who will help me write the thing in a way that hopefully isn’t a total dumpster fire.
Let’s be real, though. I’m terrified. Absolutely terrified that even with the help of an amazing editor, it will still be something fit only for the trash. But I’m doing it anyway. Because I can. Because I’ll regret it if I don’t.
What about you? Are there things, little things, big things, medium things, that you are afraid to do, but now have the time to do them? Go do them. Join me in the dumpster fire. If nothing else, it’ll be warm.
