On Becoming an Author..for real.
It's been a dream of mine for years. Every time I'd go into a bookstore, I'd go to the romance section and search. I'd see the latest books by my fellow CNYRW members, Gayle Callen, Maggie Shayne, Chris Wenger, Lani Diane Rich, CJ Berry, Gwen Bolton, and Cara Summers and wonder where my book was. That is when I realized the power of positive intention. My book was still home, on my computer waiting for me to release it, like a kite into the blue abyss. And then the moment came when I knew Thistle Dew was ready. My angel guided me to The Wild Rose Press and I submitted. The rest is one thrilling e-mail after another, the offer of a contract and the task of completing the pages in the author's packet.
The first task, after signing and returning the contract, was to create a BLOG. Let me mention that I am comfortable with the basics of wordperfect, can competently handle e-mail and have finally learned about online banking...but BLOGGING???? I don't really know how this works. Is this like an e-mail? What are the rules here? HELLO? Is anybody out there?

Hi ALee, I totally agree with you about the power of intentions. Thistle Dew is a product of it. I can't wait to see it on a book shelf.
Congratulations and good luck with the book. What's next?
