Author, Dreams Thrown Away
I began writing as a hobby at age 13. I was inspired by a substitute teacher in the eighth grade who gave me an A+ for a short story assignment. Among the many short stories and essays I have wrote over the years, I completed a novel that made it as far as a storage box in an old binder. I rediscovered it over a decade later while cleaning out my basement. That was in December 2008. Bitten by the bug to write again, I recreated the novel, Dreams Thrown Away. In a tailspin of writing, editing, and researching publishing options, Outskirts Press published it on August 14, 2009. I hope you get a chance to read it.
It has been a wonderful experience bringing a book to life. I have learned so much about writing and self-publishing in the process. I started this blog to share my experiences to help empower you to become a published author, too.
