Wow - I've never found such a great group of people on a forum! Thanks, everyone. Let me say this: my Memoir is all heart and soul, it took all of me to get it done (it's not quite finished, but very close).
I say this because I've learned through the process that I LOVE helping other writers find their way through motivation, advice/my $0.02, and whatever else I can help with.
I'm publishing the INDIE route (very, very proud of that, I might add, as I do things on my terms), and am doing so just as professionally as any book you'll see at the store. Nothing half-way, since it is, after all, my personal story.
So with all of that hot air out of me now, I look forward to helping
others just as much as sharing my work!
