I'm actually writing and back dating this two weeks after the fact because it has taken me this long to actually realize and come to terms with this milestone (add business travel last week too). On April 29, 2015, I passed in my entire manuscript to my publisher. What a grueling, yet meaningful experience. A book project is a lot harder than I thought it was going to be, but one I would always encourage others to try. The last six months of working sometimes six, sometimes seven days a week is what it took to get the job done. Day-to-day progress seemed slow but somehow each chapter was completed in its due course. There's still a lot more work to do--editing through all the board reviews, graphics, appendix, endnotes, index, etc...They all seem much less overwhelming now that the manuscript is submitted. I'm not big about celebrating my own personal accomplishments, but this post is one way to do it. Since I have shared so much of this writing journey with you, the least I could do was to finish it. Breathing a huge sigh of relief now, hopefully not too prematurely!
