Three reasons my loss is a win

I set a goal this year to finish my novel and a screenplay I’d been working on for far too long. One is done. See what helped push me to finish it.

My journey

Have you ever wanted to do something but didn’t feel you had the appropriate time to devote to it? Or maybe you were a bit intimidated by the process?

For me, that something is writing a book. As a former journalist and longtime professional communicator, I’ve written all kinds of things from news stories to speeches to website content. But a book? Nope.

I’ve had a loose story and some characters in my head for a while. Then last year, when I found myself with a little extra time on my hands, I couldn’t really use that as an excuse. So I decided to give it a go.

I now have a pretty decent rough draft pulled together, but I’ve still plenty of work ahead of me.

And I want to invite you along on my journey. I have no idea where this may lead, but that’s part of the fun, right?

Follow me on social media: Instagram & Twitter. I’ll give you updates on how things are going, but we’ll talk about lots of other things too.
