Confucius once said, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."
As many of you know, my thousand mile journey began four and a half years ago when I took on project novel. Along the way there were times when I became so frustrated that I wanted to toss my computer in the trash and run screaming for the hills. The hours of writing, re-writing then writing again were soooo daunting that I often asked myself If the novel was worth the effort. Well, I can honestly answer that question with an emphatic YES!!!!
I finally wrote "The End," on my draft last month. There is something to be said for seeing a complex project through to completion. To some extent that, in and of itself, is the reward.
You see, No matter how my journey ends, regardless if I become published or not, I can take pride in knowing I took that step and I completed the journey of a thousand miles. I'm now a stronger person because of it. Until next time my friends, happy writing.
