Today, Tate Publishing begins the production of my first book!!!! I am so excited! But, to be honest, the whole book publishing thing is still kinda surreal to me. I mean, stuff I wrote will be massed produced for people to buy all over the world…. WOW!
Anyway surrealism aside (see I’m all over the place!), the book has a working title but my publisher (don’t you just love the sound of that?) says not to get married to it because it may change during the editing process. So I’m not going to tell you the title. But I will tell you it’s about personal growth from God’s point of view.
My publisher (oops, I said it again!) says the publishing process takes about 180 days, give or take, depending on everything working out and getting done perfectly. And we know we don’t live in a perfect world so….. Maybe I’ll blog about the process so those of you who are thinking about publishing a book get an idea of what’s it like. If you like the idea of me writing about the process let me know in the comments.
Anyway, I have to respond to some emails from my publisher. 
My Journey to Me - The Discovery 
Hi, Sharman. We want to make sure we get our own autographed copies. This is really terrific new! This is truly a blessed event. Also, we wish you and your family a very Happy Fourth of July celebration. Sincerely, Thomas, Helena and Jennifer
Thank you and your autographed copies are already set aside!
CONGRATULATIONS on publishing your first book. That has got to be exciting. I have been working on my first novel and would love to hear the process. It is unbelievable to me also that I am doing something – writing – that I enjoy so much. Roland
Thank you very much! And congratulations to you on your first novel! I will be more than happy to blog on the publishing process for me (it probably varies depending upon the publisher). Roland, to read about what has happened up to this point, look in the Categories section in the right column and click The Book. All my previous posts about my book will come up.
