Why Not Me? Why Not You?

Seriously....WHY NOT?
I'm a writer.  A closet writer.  I secretly write....I do.  I write stories and poems.  I journal too.  I even self-published a book titled, "Footprints in the Snow."  I have another book finished, titled, "Muffin Tops and Spandex."  And I am currently writing a young adult book titled, "Scallop Bandits."

Since I was 5 years old I've dreamed about becoming a published author.  What has stopped me all these years?....ME!  Lately I've been thinking WHY NOT ME?!  All these years I've made excuses. I'm not good enough.  I'll never be good enough.  Who do I think I am?  But, WHY NOT ME?!

I've never taken myself seriously as a writer.  I hardly tell anyone I write or that I have a self-published book.  WHY?  Because I've been afraid that I'm not good enough.  I'm no J.K. Rowling, Kristen Hannah, or Stephen King.  But WHY NOT ME?!

WHY NOT ME?!  It's time to be brave and hold my pen up high for all to see.
                               I WRITE!
                               I AM A WRITER!
And I'm going to start submitting my work to publishers.  It's time.  WHY NOT ME?!
How about you?  What is the thing you've been wanting all your life?  It's time.  WHY NOT YOU?!

If you would like to purchase my book go to, Xlibris.com  (in the search icon type in the ISBN number 9781465368713)  All proceeds will go to the St. Joseph Food Pantry in memory of my dad, Drew.  I'm stepping out of my comfort zone, if you'd like me to come speak to a group about my book, my writing process, or Revin Up please email me.
