Three years ago I became a self published author. During the time that it actually took me to write my book I really had no idea what I was doing. All I knew was I had a story to tell and I wanted to get it put in a book. It wasn’t something I thought I could do on my own so it was actually a couple of years before I had the courage to write my book. It was one of those things that needed to be done in God’s timing and not mine. When that time finally came I knew I just had to sit down and do it.
So after one year of writing, rewriting and once again rewriting, I had my book. Oh yes, of course there was editing and then some more editing. It’s kind of funny I had the title of my book way before I even started to write. I guess sometimes maybe that’s how it works. I really don’t know. I only know that’s what happened to me. So after all that writing and editing I had a book. I titled it Marriages & Miscarriages: One Woman’s Personal Experience.
About a year ago I had written something called Why Me. I wasn’t really sure what to do with it so I just left it alone. A couple of months ago I was talking with my husband about that piece that I wrote. We were considering adding it to my book. I really wanted it to be in my book for people to read, but adding a new chapter to a book wasn’t working for us. That’s when we decided to do a revised edition of my book. We gave it a new title and a new cover. We added the piece that I wrote “Why Me” and made it another chapter. I also decided to do some changes to the last chapter.
As of last week we now have a revised edition of my book! We titled it “Miscarriages: My Story”. I am hoping this version with the new chapter will be just as much of a help to women as the first edition of my book has been. I would also like to remind people that husbands can read my book just as well as their wives. In my opinion it isn’t just the wife who goes through the miscarriage. Yes, she is the one that has it in the physical sense, but husbands feel an emotional part as well. They just feel it differently.
If you haven’t already read my book, please consider getting a copy. If you have ever had a miscarriage and feel like your all alone, my book will help you to realize your not alone.
