My gosh ladies........I am now experiencing the excitment of what you all felt when you heard for the very first time that your book is now LIVE.

I received the call I have been waiting for from my publisher. He said that as of yesterday, my book is officially on the market.

What an incredible feeling........

Just had to share!

Teresa :-)

Thank you ladies!

These books become our "surrogate" babies. We dump our heart and soul into exploring our inner most feelings. Noone can take that away from us. Noone can take away the feeling of the accomplishment and satisfaction of knowing that we have left our mark in this world....simply by being ourselves.

Teresa,

The birth metaphor is so apt. First, we go through the labor, which may well exceed nine months! Secondly, it is a bittersweet pain to finally let go of our "baby" so that it can enter the world.

I don't know about you but I'm the kind of writer who continues to edit and rewrite things that I've written 10 years ago! So, I had a very hard time knowing when to stop on both my two books. I finally had to say "enough!" and let go of them. Scary but a delicious feeling at the same time.

So proud of you :-) Congratulations!
Sigrid

It's like giving birth and someone comes in and takes your baby away for the world to see. Excitement mixed with nerves. Now, the fun begins! Congrats to you!

Thank you so much for all of your kind words! Your right......this is like our baby that I am now sharing with the entire world.

I lived through alot of pain before I could open up my heart and share my story with everyone. But I have one mission in mind........nothing would bring me more pleasure than having someone read my book and then contact me to tell me that my story inspired them enough to leave an abusive situation.

To me...........that is priceless!

Teresa
