Working on a series

So I'm finding it easier to write more books the more that I write them. They say practice makes perfect and I was researching chilrdens books for a while but then I started rereading my choice of books again which is history and woman empowerment books. I love finding different words and adjectives and phrases, so it's kind of like I'm falling in love with writing all over again. For the longest time I had the idea of just writing one Cali the Carny book just one and then it kind of struck me that you could turn it into a book series, because there is lot of different little events and fun things that happen on the carnival that can be seen through a child's point of view. Completely changed my whole entire outlook on this project as soon as I started researching for publishing I realized that I could really do this which is a little bit terrifying but also you have to think "I am fearless and I know no limits". I tell myself often it's OK to chase your dreams because "it happens all the time". Through a 3 year process my dream has changed and evolved and I can't wait to try and achieve it. I already know it's going to be a lot a hard work but I feel like if I surround myself with the right team it can happen your dream can be achieved and accomplished. I've always been told that "teamwork makes the dream work" and I believe that your "vibe attracts your tribe".

What is determination?

To me determination is having the strength to keep going when you know you want to give up. Determination is seeing life as a journey and understanding that life comes with trials and tribulations. What does not kill you makes you stronger, I often have to tell myself the downtimes are blessings in disguise or is Garth Brooks would say "thank God for  unanswered prayers". Determination is doing the research and putting in the work. Determination is deciding to get up every time you fail and fall. Determination is setting goals and achieving your dreams, be selfish with your time Make your dreams happen. In Nashville I learned that "it happens all the time", if you put in the hard work and you have the dedication. Passion is another driving factor for determination, if you have the Passion to get to your goals, you will achieve them. Now remember success is defined differently by each person, you define your success. Hug the haters, don't let anybody get to you, you understand what you're doing, you understand why you're doing it, let the Passion, drive and determination achieve your dreams. And if you ever need a little more support think Fight Grind Repeat Mr. Bobby Bones taught me that montre and it's a good one,  never give up!
