Doing a Scary Thing


Don't worry-- there is no more real drama going on with me right now. It's all just in my head.

But I'm really nervous.

For reasons I can't explain, I signed up to go to a writer's conference this weekend. And as part of that conference, I signed up for a private pitch session with an editor from Desert Book/Shadow Mountain.

...

WHAT WAS I THINKING???

*gulp*

I've been working on a non-fiction book based on my "Old-Fashioned Motherhood" blog. I feel passionately about the movement for women to return to traditional homemaking and motherhood! I've been writing about it since 2005, and researching the subject for even longer. And since I've been pushed and prompted by the Spirit to share this important message, I'm sharing it.

Though nothing will likely happen as a result of this scheduled pitch session, I hope I learn some important things.

I just want some input from someone in the business, some advice! So I shouldn't be scared, right?

*deep breath*

Right.

Wish me luck!
