Foreword
So I'm told my book needs a foreword. Maybe a preface. Certainly a dedication. It's hard enough to come up with things to say, let alone adding words before the words.
MzzRzz started because I was told I should write.
It became cathartic. I began to say what I knew someone else was thinking, but hadn't the nerve to say aloud. Have you noticed I haven't many shy bones?
How do I dedicate the book (tentatively called Meanderings)? If I pick a friend who talked me into writing, there will be others left out. If I give thanks for one encouraging word, there will have to be more. Dear friends, I can't leave you out.
Will I be able to sell Meanderings? I've talked to a local bookstore. I've got a bar code. Will anybody even look at it, much less buy it?
I didn't begin MzzRzz to become a best-selling author, just to write, but the pride and greed have reared their ugly heads. I have stalled.
The purpose with which I've been writing MzzRzz was but one...to touch one person's life and make it better. Now that publishing is a reality, I wonder if I have lost sight of the goal?
