Learning by Accident

The book is coming along nicely, but more slowly than I anticipated. While I turn my own work around quickly, I have no control over the production team, and I want a nearly perfect product, so I need to be patient.

Patience is a virtue I lack; and it's the single virtue my own life seems to be trying to teach me all the time. I've become an expert at counting to ten, breathing deeply, and telling myself, "Hey, it's just a book. It's just a book about your own life's work. It's just a book containing a story I've been bursting to tell for nearly ten years. That's all. It's just a book."

I promise you, it's coming. Nothing is written in stone, but THERE WILL BE A BOOK.  I will let you know as soon as I have a date.

Thank you for your patience!

  1. Well,Rosemary, you are ahead of me! I've been blogging for almost three years about memoir, but I have yet to even write a book proposal, so maybe that story will help you be patient. I can tell you've poured your heart into your book. You might want to check out a free teleseminar going on right now at www.transformationalauthors.com. They have wonderful expert interviews for every stage of the book writing, publishing, and marketing process. So educational!
