The book is now for sale. We spent today creating a flyer to advertise that the author is available for an interview. My contacts at work have set me up with author days at different schools. My book has been nominated for a number of awards. My life is transforming and it is so surreal. I didn’t have the courage or the strength to put myself out there and promote. I felt I didn’t deserve it, but now I am very proud of my book “Fat-Hater’s Club” because it is about regaining your identity, believing in yourself, and overcoming adversity. I have overcome so much. I had an eating disorder for over 15 years. I allowed people to tell me that I had no value. I write as a way of healing my own wounds. I have definately moved on to find a relationship that builds me up instead of break me down. I have confidence as a wife and mother. I am passionate about my writing and what my voice has to offer to people around me. I gave up on living for a long time. I was emotionally dead and just lived a life I thought I deserved, but now I realize that I never had to settle for less than what I wanted. I just needed to believe in myself in that I have a lot to give to my family and to the world. I am ready world. To quote Rascal Flatt’s “Life has been patiently waiting for me” and I am ready to live it. Go live your dream. Take a chance on yourself. You may be very surprised.
