I’ve decided to start blogging about my adventure of being a first time author. For me this is a new and exciting journey that I hope you enjoy reading about. Soon I will write about what’s happened up to this point, but for now I’ll get started posting weekly updates. Last week I went to Austin to create the “book trailer” which is about 90 seconds. It was fun brainstorming with the publisher and PR firm to come up with the content. I’ll post the trailer that’s being created in a couple weeks. After that I went and filmed a 10 minute interview about me and the book. It was fun and a little scary. They airbrushed the make up on my face which was kind of relaxing. Then I went and sat in the studio and filmed 3 takes of the interview. We really didn’t have a script and so I had to shoot from the hip. At first it was a little scary, but I think it turned out best since it wasn’t rehearsed. I also went to a mixer and it was odd being introduced as an author and public speaker. I never dreamed that this is the path God would lead me down. I’m really excited and a little nervous about how it’s all going to turn out.  The books finally arrived on 11-11-09 and I sent an email to all my friends and family. I was amazed at all the positive response and all of the people who purchased the book. It’s very flattering to have people show such interest.
