The beginning of a new year and I'm feeling the need to start a new as well. This year will be the end and the beginning for me. Thinking about the days ahead are ones that bring sadness and curiousity for me. I use to keep a journal, not a daily one but one that helped me see my thoughts. I've decided that I need to begin that task again. I need to see what I am feeling and thinking.
I have been working on writing children's books. I have submitted several to different book companies with not luck as of yet. I joke with myself that the letter from the publisher just has been lost in the mail. I wonder if my writing is worthy and good enough to be published. I had a professional illustrator read one of my manuscripts and through tears asked her that question. I was surprised by how emotional I felt about the manuscript. Writing is so personal. I didn't realize how much so.
I plan to use this blog as a spot to sort out my thoughts and to give purpose to my days.
