I'm on top of the world ma!

Okay, so maybe I'm not on top of the world, but I am climbing the mountain. I'm two chapters into my book, which will be a collection of essays in the same vein as David Sedaris. No, I am not comparing my talent to that of Mr. Sedaris’. But I am saying that I’ll be writing a series of short stories that hopefully will inspire some, cause others to laugh, and at the very least, make you feel a little better about yourself.

Despite failing on many professional levels, I have realized that some good can come from my large collection of shortcomings. Will I ever get published? Probably not. Does it give me something to look forward to? Absolutely, and sometimes that means more than the actual outcome.

Way to go! Seriously, I'm a little jealous.
