…there always seem to be things on my “to-do list” that go unchecked. A lot of those are daily tasks, like taking my vitamins or organizing something in my house. But there are bigger items that are hard to knock out, such as getting a book written.
For the longest time – years actually – I swore I’d write a book, and I just never got around to it. That is, until last summer when I sat down and finally got to writing my first novel. It took me until mid-September, but I finally got the final chapter typed out before my long-awaited family reunion. That was my absolute drop-dead date, and I was proud to carry a copy of the manuscript to my Dad. He passed in December and I don’t think he got a chance to read it before he died, but I was happy that I at least showed it to him before the end.
So, what’s my new “to-do” item that isn’t getting done? Ask me how the editing of the book is going.
