What a Day it is, Freedom at Last

Last night Karen , Dean Merrill and I decided to celebrate the completion of the book. Admittedly, I have not felt this free for a long time. There was no champagne or any spirits apart from the Holy Spirit. Guess what, we really got drunk in the joy of the lord. Do you ever feel that way?  The overwhelming joy and appreciation for what God has completed in this book overtook our time together. Praise the lord.

Today, I drove Dean to the airport to return home. As we were having breakfast before we left, he shared with me a quote that sums up the process of "birthing" an autobiography.

“Writing a book is an adventure: to begin with it is a toy and an amusement, and then it becomes a mistress, and then it becomes a master, and then it becomes a tyrant, and the last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled to your servitude, you kill the monster and fling him about to the public.” - Winston Churchill

It was exciting, exhilarating and exhausting all wrapped in one.  The book will be on shelves September 15.  I hope you enjoy it.  Keep watching the blog as snippets will be posted over the coming weeks.
