Whew!

At the risk of jinxing myself, I finally got what I hope and pray is a legitimate beginning for the next novel I'm working on.

Has it been a slog! I descended into the depths of despair for a while there. Everything seemed completely stagnant: relationship, my singing in my church choir, and my new project.

I worry that I'm too dependent on writing success (not success in sales but rather in production).

I'm constantly getting so many emails from people promising 40 reviews on Amazon and on goodreads. When I google their names, they don't even exist.

SCAMS!
