Have you ever
stopped an activity that you REALLY enjoyed
doing, then picked it up again one day and asked
yourself, "Self, why in the world did we quit
doing this?"
That’s exactly what
happened to me in July of 2007.
I had just graduated
from college with my degree in Business
Management. It took me ten years to earn that
degree. I should’ve been breathing a sigh of
relief. Instead, I felt incomplete. Like a part
of my life was still missing.
So, I did the only
thing I could to compose my thoughts and figure
out why I felt this way. I wrote. Over the
course of days, my journal entries went from how
I was feeling, to new characters that popped
into my head and pleaded for me to tell their
stories.
In six short weeks,
I’d completed a historical romance manuscript
and was working on the sequel. I wrote during my
lunch hours, when I got home from work
(in-between homework, dinner, etc.), and from
the time the kids went to bed, until sometimes
one and two a.m.! The next day, I’d get up and
start all over again. On the weekends, I’d sneak
in as much writing time as I possibly could. And
you know what? I COULDN'T HAVE BEEN HAPPIER.
It had been nearly twenty years since I put on
my writer’s hat, but in that short period, my
world came into focus. This was what I’d been
missing. So now, I’m making up for lost time.
The ideas and characters just keep coming: from
the American South, Ireland, Wales, and Italy.
I’ll be writing a tale for each, and I’d love to
share them with you.
