[QUOTE="Steely, post: 462244, member: 3301"] Thank you all for the compliments..... DDD you know I never have been sure if I could write or not - truthfully it has always just been a dream since I can remember. I wrote a lot in school, and then my life got de-railed with "stuff". I started writing again about 10 years ago, for 2 years, and have half a book finished. Then I got massive writer's block and Matt was spiraling and I stopped. Since I got fired last year, writing is all I wanted to do. It just pounds in me, but then with my Dad sick, and traveling every other week to pack houses, etc - I just only inked out only about another 2 chapters. It sucked. So now that I have moved, I am trying to settle and make both finishing the book and making money a priority. It is hard, because when I am working, then it sucks all the creativity out of me - so I am going to try and make a go of a dog care/walking business where I can have free hours at a time to write. I hope it all works out...because there is nothing that would make more happy....nothing - than getting this book published. But we will see - it is a long shot to say the least. And I am not writing easy stuff - it is a memoir about my life - and it is grueling to re-hash all of the cr@p I went through and then to try and put it into prose that flow and move people. [/QUOTE]
