EVERYONE WANTS TO BE AN AUTHOR

Comments

Hi Gang,

I have to apologize that I haven't had time to write this blog or to write my novel (The Bridge Beckons) either. I have added a few sentences to my novel, but can't get over some brick walls. In January I'm going to retire and I have plans to do some writing every day. That will help a lot, I think.

My first novel (the one I published 2 years ago) took me almost 30 years to write and re-re-re-re-write, so this novel may take more time.

I have two more novels I also want to work on. Nobody said we HAVE to write, we just do it because it's fun, a hobby if you will. So if you are finding it difficult to find time for your hobby, hang in there. Once you sit down, butt in chair (BIC), you'll find it addicting and you won't want to stop. But you have to get BIC first.

In the meantime, I'd love to have your email address so I can send you announcements of upcoming events like the sale of my next book, a blog tour / media blitz that never got off the ground (ha ha ha),  my next blog entry, and so forth.

By the way, my novel is still on sale through Amazon. Just search for my name (Paul W. West) or the name of my book (Bridgetown High).


Happy Thanksgiving. I'll try to write you, my wonderful readers, before Christmas.
