The Word Behind the Pages

"I'm going to write a book."
I must have been crazy the day I told my wife those words. Until that moment, I had never expressed interest. She never saw it coming. See my earlier post: The Beginning.

She smiled and said, "Okay."

That is the only word I've needed to hear since. It is my guide, my support. That word tells me everything that I need to keep going. It confirms that I am crazy to do this; however, that word reassures me that I have her support.

I can't imagine trying to take on this endeavor without my wife. She is the inspiration behind every page I create. We're on a long journey and before every step into the dark unknown, I can hear her tell me it will be OKAY.

  3. Nice! Even if they think we're a little crazy (or is that just me???), our spouses are so important in helping us find that time!
