Books Are Us

I’m pretty psyched. I completed what turned out to be the fourth or even fifth, actually more likely the sixth, set of revisions on my book. It has been a three-year project, and I have you, my blog subscribers, to thank for this feat. My blog posts and your responses to them formed the nucleus of my book project. Initially, I naively thought I could throw my blogs together and make a book. “Oh no”, said my publisher. It requires much more of you than that. I almost wish I had written it in conjunction with pursuing a master’s in fine arts (MFA) since it feels like I just completed my dissertation. The title is (shock of shocks) Be Brave! Lose the Beige: Finding Your Sass After Sixty; She Writes Press is my publisher, and the launch is scheduled for next May.
