No, not the one you're probably thinking. I don't think I can ever do that again, but, it is related to the one I'm about to take.
As far back as I can remember I have loved to read. I remember having to keep a list in 5th grade of all the books we read, I read 102 books in 36 weeks of school! So you have to kinda get the picture.
I limit myself to what I buy now - they get heavy in moving and I've been on a five year mission to declutter for a big move to a retirement center.
BUT - thru the blog, myspace, and a couple of other projects I've busied myself with, I am always being asked "why don't you write a book?" So, I'm going to. I actually have two premises in mind - but - I'm very much leaning toward a somewhat autobiographical book with all the funny anecdotes I can think of, but, some sage advice on marriage and life, kids and cooking.
At least that's what I'm thinking. I have this other idea - remember Paul Simon's song "50 Ways to Leave your Lover"? Well, I could write "125 TImes I should have left Ronnie Martin"! If I did this one, I'd want it to be the therapeutic end to any further discussion or attention his behavior and sociopathic personality have demanded over the years. Needless to say that idiot called me this week.
The only thing about writing a book that includes too much about him, I'm not giving him a damn dime! That's something for the attorney and publisher to figure out - but - I have a publisher (sorta) if I proceed!
Maybe next year I'll be one of the featured author's at the Southern Festival of Books!!
