It sure can be difficult, I thought about writing years ago but with kids running around, my husband was overseas and I was running to FRG meetings and worrying about being a military wife, and now that my last child moved out I put in the work that needed to be done as far as writing , even though I was in school studying for my GED and got it I might add I plan on going back to school to become a social worker , I also made time to write 2 more books but the one that just got published still has me in shock because I cannot believe that I'm a published author.
