I DID IT!
This morning I woke up very early, and decided this would be the day I'd publish my book. So I reread it, fixed some things, sent it off, and created a cover. Now I am waiting for the very first copy to reach my house. At which point I will read it again, and then that will be it, ready for prime time and an ISBN number.
It is a quietly exciting day. I've worked on this book for over eleven years, and today is finally here.
What do I like about his book? I like the fact that it is in a small way a memorial to Pvt. William Kouri, who died at the Battle of St. Lo. I like the fact that a teenager finds her way and feels good about her life. I like the fact that there is a book within a book. I like that you really don't know if ghosts exist or not until the end. I like the fact that I finished it. So many times tasks get started and never finished. This was a work that was put down and picked up many times over the years.
Now I can move on to my next book...
