So…. I have news. I met with several publishers last week, and the one of my dreams said, ‘We want you. Join our family.’ . Meaning, I was offered a book deal. And I said yes. Meaning it’s happening. The real thing. A physical book. My bike trip. My thoughts. My young efforts to put words to my life and life itself… they believe in me. They want to print it. Bind it. Hold it. They want to sell it. They want it to be in bookstores. They want y'all to have it. They said, 'we don’t see a book in you. We see a lifetime of books in you.’ . I can’t say more just yet. But I will in due time. The turn around is too fast to get it out by Christmas, but next year will be the year. . I have to tell you… to be believed in is the most incredible feeling in the world. To risk embarrassment by saying too much, and to hear 'me too.’ And even more, 'go on!’ . Y'all got me to this spot. My conversations with you have shaped my voice, and given me confidence to speak. Wow. . So yeah. It’s happening. I’m a bumbling mess. I’m an idiot with a cocktail in his hand, cheersing everyone so hard I’ll go home with glass stuck in my hand. . : @jacquelynpotter . (And those of you that believed in me ages ago for my kickstarter… get ready to see your name in print!) -- source link
