My Publishing Addiction

Picture it: Punk Rock Flea Market, Mill & Mine, Knoxville, TN, 2021. It was a comfortable, cool day in early October. After much hard work and diligence, I had copies of The Unknown Beautiful Missing Piece at my table. Lots of people who passed by stopped and thumbed through this book. They complimented me on the captivating front cover. Some people bought copies, I autographed them.


I haven't published a book since November 2020. I'd hoped to have published Light & Momentary Troubles, the second volume of my journal entries, by now. However, no one responded to a post I'd made a few weeks ago on an authors' Facebook page, requesting someone to critique it. 

I haven't worked on The Unknown Beautiful Missing Piece in the way I'd thought. Then again, I'm a lot farther along in the progress than I realize; I need to be patient. What I have been working on, though, are essays and devotions, one of which I submitted to Inkspirations . I may likely have another one on there soon. 



In order to make this goal happen, I'll have to finish the first draft around the first of August. Is this too unrealistic? I'll know as this month unfolds. If it doesn't happen then, I know I'll be happy even when I publish it in October. In the meantime, please enjoy an excerpt I have for The Unknown Beautiful Missing Piece.
