... For the past 8 years...
Had my first public reading last night. The book isn't quite finished but, rather than write something completely new and needing something to present, I read the first chapter to a group of relative strangers.
As you might imagine I was a little nervous. I've only shared this with my daughters and my writing group.
Started off with the idea I would read a few paragraphs and stop, just so I had something to share.
Well, ham that I am, when everyone laughed in all the right places I sailed right thru.
Quite relieved right now that it was well received. Back to the editing!
