Writing this book has been such a huge part of my healing journey. At my lowest it gave me an escape from my extremely unhealthy marriage. It helped me with my depression and when my marriage ended it gave me purpose and strength as it is something that I can truly call "my own". Over the last 4 years it has given me focus, enjoyment, pleasure and it has been an outlet for the pain and hurt in my life to be voiced without have to speak and in turn it has given me the strength to be able to put my feelings into the right words and get them out of my head helping to heal my soul. At present my completed manuscript is being edited on a chapter by chapter basis as with 5 kids I can't afford huge bills. This is not ideal as the stop-start nature is making it very hard for us to work at maximum efficiency and do my novel the justice it deserves. My goal is to get enough money to pay my editor to work continuously on my book and after that is completed be able to get it printed.
Funds will be used to complete the editing and publishing processes associated with getting this book printed.
