The Light at the end

What is next in the journey?  Over fifteen years is a long time to be working on a passion project.  The moment when your editor tells you that your project is in the final stages of being over and ready for submission, gives you all kinds of feels.  I look back at where I started and where I am now.  So much has obviously changed.  My creativity, my discipline and the fact that I am even talking about submitting my manuscript.  I really never thought that I would make it this far in my journey because I actually gave up a few times.  You have the people in your life who make you think that it is a pipe dream; the trick is to realize deep inside that doing something you love and striving to make it happen, is never a pipe dream.  As long as you hold true to yourself.
