Big News Post!

When I first wrote my memoir, I researched agents that not only accepted memoirs but ones who would also accept the genre health and other topics I wanted to write. Then, I anxiously awaited for answers to my query from hopeful agents who wanted to take on my project. And then I queried a few more and waited some more.  I even seeked out those in the industry who may understand more deeply the need for stories like mine and still I didn’t get any response back that led anywhere. Some of the 40ish agents said my project wasn’t for them and most didn’t respond at all. And when I dove a little deeper, I found out that the most recent infertility memoirs out there are almost all self published!

And while at first I didn’t think I was going to go that route, I now realize that it’s a perfect solution! Not only are nearly all new authors over-looked in this tough economical era we are in because publishing houses simply don’t want to take the risk and can’t afford it….but it seems that infertility is still so taboo and many just don’t want to touch the subject at all. And since rights, royalties and turn around time is so much better when you self-publish, I decided to go for it!

So, in about 3-4 months, my memoir, My Ordinary Miracles will be available to buy! I am nervously excited but wanted you all to be the first to know (well besides Tw.itter.ville)! I will keep you all posted! Thank you so much for all your support.  I can barely believe it’s happening!

Oh and if your curious about the inspiration for the title…scroll down my sidebar to my playlist and play #11!
