The latest update

The initial wave of response to my proposed project has waned and has left me with only 46 pages of manuscript, far short on what I need to even consider publication.  I am concerned that the project may never come to fruition and that I have wasted the time of those individuals who have contributed thus far.  I had hoped to be completing the initial manuscript by Easter, but at this rate, I figure it may take another year to complete enough interviews to even pursue publishing.

Hi!  Just remember, Rome wasn't built in a day!  Keep your dream alive.  I'm a writer too and know just how hard it is to face so much adversity and frustration when it comes to the publishing industry.  My first tattoo was to celebrate my new book coming out and since then, I've added another on my shoulder and am thinking of getting a few more.  I'll be contacting you soon, with a picture of the tattoos.  Don't give up.
