Thank you Mr. Orgorek, I enjoyed reading and receiving all the help. I am new to the publishing world (support- self-publishing). My children's short storybook will be in my hands sometime this summer. I, like many have sat on my story for about 20 years. I now have two more children's short stories that I want to publish next year. I am filled with all sort of emotions. Very exciting and scarey, too. Listening to your comments was quite re-assuring to me. All authors need encouragement more than anything. It keeps us motivated to continue to the end. I live in a small town, surrounded by small towns in Southern Illinois. Selling my book at events will be challenging. There are small festivals and libraries. I may have to trek to St. Louis ( about an hour or so away.) I also have family in Atlanta, Ga, and could do some promoting there as well. Thanks again. Blessings in your endevors.

Keith, I appreciate your kindness to those who want to get published. I'm working on my "Positive Friends" newsletter-book and is looking forward to it being in my hands before my 71st birthday.

Thank you, Keith. I am ready to publish, and I feel I need to go with supported publishing. It can be quite expensive so I'm working on finding the funds. Your information is super!
