I do honestly have here in PA.
The working title for mine is 'My point is...Only my opinion'.
I have been writing it for past couple yrs.
It is full of my ideas on many subjects.
I may not publish it, it works as a journal of sorts for me.
My dad is the one pushing me to finish and publish.
It is a personal account of one being an outcast and still live a normal life.
That's me.
I have always been considered 'different'.
But, I keep on truckin'!
An excerpt:
Ever feel alone in a room full of people?
I do.
Now this is seriously written in a book I am honestly writing.
I know how it may look that I'm adopting someone else's idea as my own, I'm not.
It is amazing how many people I can relate to.
I am afraid to as I may be accused of a constant 'put on'.
I can proven all I say if given the chance.
Or if someone actually cared to ask me to.
I know how assumptions can hurt.
It is good I'm not suicidal anymore.
Some people here could have pushed me to that point.
Hope there haven't been others who were.
Anyway, Carl needs to contact big name publishers.
Mine is small-town, not much circulation.
