Major props to my good buddy Meryl for publishing her book this month.
We all have a book in us. It's about a technical issue or a fictional world or our past life.
The hard part is getting the book out of us and on to the page. From current experience, I know that it takes amazing commitment and focus, a willingness to give up some control of your baby to an editor or collaborator, and time. So much time.
Even if your book is awful when it is complete, it is still an awesome accomplishment. Any book that is published is a merit badge for the author(s).
Thankfully, Meryl's book is great and shows off her big flashy brain. She gets a whole sash of badges for this one!
I'm looking forward to reading Meryl's murder mysteries in the future, which I am confident she will write in her spare time.
