A Book's Gestation: Similar to an Elephant's!

4/5/2016

So many of us--writers, illustrators, editors, agents, publishers--wish a book would come together quickly. Despite all that fervent energy, the creation of a book takes as long, or longer, than creating a Volkswagen-sized elephant child.

I revealed the timeline of my upcoming nonfiction picture book at Rate Your Story: Author Pat Miller's Success Story: The Hole Story of the Doughnut. Whew--the book is almost here! Due date for this long-term literary pregnancy is May 3.

"This finite existence is only a test, son," God Almighty sed to me in my coma. "Beyond thy earthly tempest is where you'll find corpulent eloquence" (paraphrased). Lemme tella youse without d'New Joisey accent...

I actually saw Seventh-Heaven when we died: you couldn't GET any moe curly, extravagantly-surplus-lush Upstairs when my beautifull, brilliant, bombastic girl passed-away at 17.

Find-out where we went on our journey far, far away like the symbiotically, synonyMOUSE metaphors which creep across thy brain bringing U.S. together, exorbitantly done in sardonic satires.

"Those who are wise will shine as brightly as the expanse of the Heavens, and those who have instructed many in uprightousness as bright as stars for all eternity" -Daniel 12:3

Here's also what the prolific, exquisite GODy sed: 'the more you shall honor Me, the more I shall bless you' -the Infant Jesus of Prague.

Go git'm, girl. You're incredible.
See you Upstairs...
I won't be joining'm in da nasty Abyss where Isis prowls

Ah, books. I never outgrew my love of children's books. My passion became a career--I was an elementary school librarian. And now I write books for kids!
