Waiting

As Mr. Petty said, the waiting is the hardest part.

Here we are, now into the fourth month of the year, and honestly I haven’t made a whole lot of progress toward getting my books published. Some of that is me, some of it is waiting on others. That’s the hard part.

Last year I spent way too much time trying to see if an agent would be interested in me and my book. This year I’ve finished editing one book and will be done with another by the end of the month. I’d like to take time right now to dig into the publishing part, but I don’t want to lose momentum on editing Next Time. So, I think I will finish that and then take whatever time I need to get my books published before I start on the next.

I’d like to be further along in getting these published, no lie. If there’s one thing I’ve learned over the years, it’s that I don’t always get to pick the timing of what I want, and when it finally does happen, it’s at the perfect time. I’ll have to keep telling myself that.
