I think I can tell you now...

So...I really am going to tell you now.

But please don't scroll to the bottom, because I want to tell the whole story.

It all started when I was in 2nd grade...

I would write little stories...

And draw little pictures to go with them...

And who knew that one day I would be writing a book?

Certainly not me! And honestly most of the time, I don't know what I'm doing.

But I love it.

Some days the words just flow out of my brain, through my fingers onto the keyboard.

Others I struggle with the hated writer's block...

Which by the way, is a real sickness. I'm sure of it. I had it for THREE weeks- it's torture.

But the last couple of days...the words have been flowing, very smoothly. Romantic words, sad words, inspiring words. Words that help tell part of MY story. My book.

And after months and months of sitting and staring at the computer screen...

After months and months of writing...

My very first rough draft of my book...

Is now complete.

And I hope through my book- people will see my heart.

They will be able to see my character.

They will be able to see me, for who I am.

A writer who loves Jesus and orphans and wants to let the world know.

Thank you.

P.S. Oh- but I might be changing the title...I'm not sure.
