I experience an unusual
blend of anticipation and descending-rollercoaster-terror the days leading up
to a book release. It feels a little like stripping down in the doctor’s
office, waiting with trembling knees, nothing but a flimsy sheet covering me.
Might as well say, “Hello world, I’m naked.” Well, at least my words are—my
story is.
And I’ve fallen a
little in love with this book streaking thing.
Why?
Because my stories are
getting through. And I’m getting them out. And you’re taking them in. It all
translates as little spikes of victory. I find myself continually grateful for
taking the risk.
I’m also grateful for
the following strong initial reactions to The Delicate Nature of Love
(releasing mid-Feb.)…
"I’ve fallen a little in love with this book streaking thing." I'm so glad you have, sweet Friend. MANY readers are so glad that you have. I'm praying for you as your book release date approaches!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Donna. I know that was an unusual way to word it. It's been such a thrilling process. And thanks for those prayers!
DeleteCongratulations on getting good endorsements!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. I respect both of the authors mentioned so it truly was an honor to receive those.
DeleteAw...I feel the endorsement didn't say enough! Hard to put it into words, but all your books stick with me, which is the highest standard of lasting writing to me. Blessed to read your books!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Heather. Means a lot!
