{BOOK} the journey

{BOOK JOURNEY}

i'm crying.

{like right now} 

maybe i am overly emotional.

maybe i just have not slept much. 

maybe i am still in denial that i am writing a book and 

sometimes it hits me like a ton of bricks.

i just saw a rough draft of the cover.

i didn't know that email was coming or that anyone was even working on it yet.

but i opened my email and there it was.

something from my dreams. 

like the wild and crazy dreams that you NEVER think will happen.

a good friend told me to "enjoy this journey"

{ps. that person was bird. love her.}

i laughed at that - enjoy what? sleepless nights?

stress beyond anything i have had ever? 

an endless stream of deadlines and work load? 

but today it hit me.

 i have always imagined that once the final manuscript hit the table

that THEN i would finally be able to start enjoying the "fruits" of my labor. 

but that is just not how it is!

i call this blog "creative juice"

you know that feeling when you have a crazy, cool, unique idea?

one that makes your heart race and run to a piece of paper 

to write everything down as it flows through you?

and then you DO it, step back and never have been more proud?

its like creative crack.

{well i couldn't call my blog that...}

and lately - i have an IV of it.

and i want to enjoy every moment and savor it. 

again - i can't show you anything today... i'm sorry. 

i really am. you have been so supportive and i can't thank you enough for that!

i hope i am not wearing on your patience with all this talk and "no show"-- 

but soooooonnn k?

and what a show it will be ;)

happy entertaining
