Sometimes things happen and we think, "I should write a book about that", or "that would make a good movie". I must confess that my life has had some interesting curves in it and many times have thought about penning a book out of this or that. Friends have even suggested such, saying either, "Leave my name out!" or, just as often, "Be sure and spell my name right".  After long days, sleepless nights, writes, rewrites and delays, my novel is finally in my hands. Pretty exciting to be actually holding my first book!
