Eureka!
For many years, people have told me I should write a book. In fact, I have told me that I should write a book. It's less of an "idea" and more of a "calling." I just know it's inside of me and it needs to come out. I'm not sure if anyone will actually read it, and that's ok. The book is inside of me, and I need to write it, to express it. For a long time, I hesitated to to sit down because I thought "I'll never write like Elizabeth Gilbert ." Well Duh. There's only one Elizabeth Gilbert just as there is only one April Schmidt. But the real problem wasn't really that I wanted to write like Liz, but I wanted to write a story similar to hers. You know, minus the amazing travel. The story of how I too, found myself crying on a bathroom floor for weeks and months on end...... took a journey (mostly internal), found and endured the David years, and then........ perhaps ended with a love story like hers and Felipe's....
