I haven’t posted my January Goals yet (check back tomorrow) but I was so excited that I already<\/em>\u00a0accomplished one I had to share with you guys! One of my big goals for January–and 2012–was to finish the first draft of my book. The book is about how I gained and lost the weight, the journey I was on during the process and what I accomplished after the weight came off. I was working steadily on it for months in 2011 and then got busy with summer activities<\/a> and took a break…until recently.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Well, I jumped the gun on my January goals and finished the first draft over the vacation weekend!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I’d been so stumped about just how to\u00a0articulate\u00a0Hood to Coast, that I’d stopped writing for awhile. Sometimes taking a break is a good thing. I attacked the last part of my book will renewed energy and inspiration. And now the first draft is DONE.<\/p>\n

212 single-spaced typed pages.
\n128,000 words.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nI gave the first draft to my friend Star to proofread. Apparently she’s already done with it!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nIt feels so good to have the book completed. Now I can start the fun part of editing, rewriting, editing some more and hopefully I can find a publisher that wants to buy it!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Woohoo! 2012 is starting off with a bang!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
