Well, my friends it’s finally here! 16 years I finally published my life story.
I wrote it when Victoria was in high school and she designed the book cover. Isn't it fantastic!???
Then I put it on the shelf, and began really working hard with the Orange County Healing Center creating ceremonies, workshops, and healing experiences for people… and then of course, all the spiritual tours around the world!
So Wild just sat there
Over a month ago, my neighbor was telling me that I have the kind of voice that should be narrating audiobooks. So even though I don’t like using ChatGPT for environmental reasons, I went on chat and asked how I would start auditioning for audiobooks. The chat said… Why would you read another person’s book when you have your own?
About a year ago, I put my book into chat to see if I could turn him into a self-help book. But it didn’t really work. I’ve been very protective over what I originally wrote. Even editors had a hard time changing any of the words. Because it was my story. From my perception. And from what I had experienced so there was no changing it.
So back to the Neighbor. Because of her suggestion, I found a local studio called studio 770 in Brea of all places! Super close to the house. Shantih, who is the owner of 770 was amazing to work with. Her engineer Richard and intern Mathew all worked as a team to help me get this off the ground and launched
Then, just as we were about to upload it to Audible, we found out that you can’t do that unless your book is already published on Kindle. So then I had to go through the process of actually editing all those pages I had been working on for years and years and years and that’s when Shelley stepped in.
I asked her if she wouldn’t mind making some edits and uploading it because Kindle has very specific technical things. They need in order for you to upload your book. She said she’d be happy to.
As a matter of fact, Shelley said that She had, just the week before, been saying how fun it would be to be an editor! Talk about fast manifestation!
So with her help and the help of very good friends, Wild is finally in the world!!!
I am now ready to write the other two books I have in mind and publish the three children’s stories that have been sitting on the shelf.
After sitting around for six months recuperating from this knee surgery, it’s fun to finally feel productive again!
If you’ve gotten this far, then perhaps you would want to read my story and leave a review. Reviews really matter when it comes to stories. The Audible will be available in about 9 days.
Warning. Subject matter very intense. Please do not listen with children around.
These things that I wrote were very difficult for me to not only experience but relive during the writing and rewriting of my story.
This story is for anyone who has battled with abuse, addiction, homelessness, and felt there's no way out.
My new message!
It’s never too late to change your story
It’s interesting to go from healing of others over the past 18 years to finally giving a voice to my 14-year-old self and healing her.
Thank you for always being there, Facebook friends, even though I lost most of you when I got hacked!
I appreciate all the love, time, and energy you put in reading my posts!
Thanks ahead of time for any reviews you may leave! They say thats what really sells books...Reviews!!!
Peace
