Hello out there.
I want to start 'Day One' but the fact is this project of mine has been brewing for 2 years or more. This is very fortunate for anyone who cares to follow this journey into self publishing, because there probably wouldn't have been much to write about before now. Just a lot of 'Wrote a chapter. Went to bed late.'
Pillow2Pen2Paper will be my journey towards self publishing my first book.
I don’t think I’m overstating the point when I mention some of my best work has been done in the bedroom. For example, I proposed to my wife in bed and that turned out to be a fantastic decision.
‘Great Scott’, the working title of my labour of love, began as a bout of insomnia. At 3am in the morning I lay awake, staring at the ceiling and wondering if perhaps I shouldn’t have had a coffee at 11pm afterall.
As my wife had only recently made me sit through The Secret, and then swear that I would engage in its doctrine (yes, we have a vision board), I began to run through the process of asking the universe for things. I might add here that the entire purpose of this was simply so I could tell my lovely wife how clever I’d been during the night and to score some brownie points.
What happened, however, was that the lead characters of my book leapt into my head and began to thrash out a storyline.
So you’ll be joining me eight months out from my publishing goal of 1st December 2010 as I attempt to pull this bad boy together.
Wish me luck.
