Publishing again

Yesterday I went to a local UPS copy store-that will make my son Jeff happy as he works for UPS. They will be helping me print, bind and publish my collection of articles that I have been writing for the past year for a local newspaper into a book entitled Looking Back...at Life in the "Good Old Days." I've filled an 80+ half page book with 50 articles plus lots of old family photos. Now I'm trying to write a description of the writer-ME. It's really quite the production because I am going to try to sell this book and not just give it away for cost as I've done with the many other family history books I've written.

Above is a photo that will be on the cover. I'll let you know when it will be available, cause I know you'll want to buy one or two of my books. LOL! It's like giving birth to a new child. You have to figure out its name, make all the arrangements for its birth and struggle with a few doubts or two. Can I do this? Am I really going to be a published writer/mother? Guess I can do it, since I birthed four sons and raised them to adulthood before releasing them to the world. Life is certainly interesting and educational. Capturing your journey called LIFE is so important. I hope you are keeping a journal and making plans to organize them into your own personal biography for your family.
