Writing Post


Today is my day for writing again. I am trying to do all of the things that are needed to prepare my book for publication. I have sent it to the copy-editor. Now it is my responsibility to write for the permissions for the quotes that I have included from other authors. I am also working on the Bibliography. I can't believe that I used more than 150 sources for the material in this book. Of course, that was over the course of ten years, and snippets on the topic just kept popping up everywhere.
My other task for the book these days is finding the credible people who can give me strong endorsements. That is a task that I am finding quite encouraging, especially when those I ask tell me they feel honoured to do this. I have received some remarkable endorsements. I am so grateful.
Well, I had better get back to work. I just thought you might like a little background information about what goes into the production of a book. I am including a photo of my writing companion.
