I Just Can’t Wait!

Katherine and I had one of our strategic meetings the other day, and I told her everything I just told you in the last blog entry. 

And she’s more than aware of my inability to wait and do nothing; so, we brainstormed some ways we could use our materials — without having to wait for a publisher to pick us up.  We concentrated on options that wouldn’t conflict with our goal of being picked up by a publisher, but would allow us to use our materials and support our personal goals.

Katherine brought up the workshop idea again, but this time for teens.  She thought, possibly, weekly discussion groups for teenagers would work — something informal, to go over the Ready or Not material.

Something similar could be promoted for the children’s book.  During the summer, we can set up a book club for children who would like to read and discuss our children’s book.  By then, we would have the discussion aid booklet completed to supplement the original story.

Since Katherine has connection with the homeschool community, it would be easy for her to generate some interest and promote these sessions to our target audience.

So, later this month, we may be adding these workshops to our ever-growing project list.

I’m really looking forward to this new phase.  It’s exciting to have a blank sheet in front of me and fill it with words that create a story, a feeling, a thought, and a different world.

It’s even more exciting to have someone breathe life into these words, and tell the story, experience the feelings, and conceptualize the thoughts…

Now add to all of that… the feeling of listening and discussing the different levels of meanings, feelings, and perspectives others will bring to these pages I’ve written.

They will bring their own stories, their own feelings, and their own worlds to share with us. 

I’m so excited!  I can’t wait!

I just can’t wait!
