Once upon a time there was a girl who loved writing but didn’t believe she could write. Someday, she thought, I’ll write a book. Someday when she has more life perspective, more experience writing, more time. Someday… Until ONE DAY, she found herself jumping around to music much too loud and cool with thousands of other women loudly proclaiming their biggest dreams. It was in that moment, she caught herself saying, “I’m going to write a book before year-end.”
Six weeks later, she’d find herself immersed in a global pandemic while navigating work, motherhood, a sick father, and securing toilet paper. The timing was terrible but a woman of her word, she kept her promise and somehow finished that book.
The book would arrive on her doorstep just days before her dad died and it became one of the last things he told her he was proud of before he passed.
In Hollywood, this is the part where you’d go on to find the writer would go on to become a New York Times best-selling author and contribute one of the greatest pieces of literature to the world.
If only…
