It’s Close

By Abe Newmeyer, August 2, 2019

Writing & Creation

I’m so close to finishing the edits on my book I can nearly taste it!

Started the final round of edits on Oct. 01, 2018 with 64,768 words and now on just over 10 months later, I can finally see a conclusion of this laborious task. There has simply got to be a better way to get this done and that will be one of my next projects.

Today, Friday, August 2, 2019, I am grateful that:

I’ve been able to “stick with” the editing process to this point. My history includes “great starts” and lack luster finishes. To have reached this point in the process is truly an accomplishment.

I was able to assist some of the guys I’ve met here in the Philippines with some ideas about some things at home. It’s interesting how different countries and cultures handle situations. I was able to share some insights without (hopefully) offending.

I’m beginning to “feel” as if writing is part of my routine again. For a couple of weeks it’s been a challenge. But for the last couple of days it’s been less like work.

Be of Service. Be Impactful!
