 If there is one thing I don't have in many aspects of my life, its patience. I am that person who is so used to everything being instant. I want a book, well I just download it instantly and load it on my e-reader. I want to know what my friend is doing at 9pm at night, I send her a text. Wam bam, instant gratification. So what do I do when something isn't instant and I have to be patient, well I go insane and want to pull my hair out waiting. I can only imagine myself as a kid waiting on Santa. It might be why I was always up at 4 am and didn't sleep well. I just had to know what was in those packages and what the jolly ol' man had stuffed down the chimney for me. Boy am I thankful that both my children seem to be 100x more patient them me. Bless them! Perhaps I need to sit back and take a lesson from them. So now your wondering, what has my panties all in a wad I bet. Well, it sounds so silly but I am just so darn excited about this whole process of getting to edit my upcoming book and seeing it blossom that I just can't wait to get started. However this process is not instant so I think I just might be learning a life lesson. I have to learn to sit back and breathe. It takes time and patience. Eek! On another note that has my nerves all wound up in a knot is this series I want to write. I have book one done and two wonderful people looking it over for feedback. I want to jump the gun and start on book 2, but I know I need to be patient for the feedback on book 1. Tidy it up and submit before I get too ahead of myself. Yes, there is a lesson in all of this, I know it. If I could sit still long enough, then I just might learn it!

Are you adopted? You may be my child! LOL The diff is I would go ahead and get my ideas for #2 down and ready for editing when the reviews of #1 come back. Otherwise, I'd go nuts with all the ideas and no outlet--or, worse, FORGET all of them by the time the reviews came back on #1. I say GO FOR IT! It's easier to change a few things than to write the book in the first place. But, you see--that's MY impatience! And...now that I've shared this info with you...I will, of course, expect you to do it! 8/13/2011 12:04:53 pm
Thanks Linda. My impatience took over and I started to work on my next one. I decided, wth! The more I get written the more I might actually be able to get out there. Leave a Reply. |
