The Writing Journey

I am up to my eyeballs working on my soon to come book, The Pool's Edge. Because my life is full with [image error]other work and commitments, I find myself fitting in some time for the manuscript each day although I don't have the luxury of devoting a full day to it.

However, I also found myself not wanting to hurry through it. I know there are changes that need to happen, additions to be made; and as I was working on those, I realized how much writing a book is a journey in itself. While I would love to be finished with it and see the final product, I realize there is a lot of work ahead of me as work to finish it. But the day that I hold the published book in my hands, I won't think about how it is finished so much as I will reflect on the road it took to create it and make it the final work that will be available for everyone to enjoy.
