Embarking on Your Journey
When I first started the journey of writing a book, I will admit that I had no idea what I was doing and whether or not what I wrote mattered. Through the process, I learned that the only important thing was; that it had relevance to yourself and I learned that mattered… literally. The idea came to me one day but I never really knew what lay hidden in the unknown and if you ask any writer the most frustrating phase of writing a book is when you are in the process of writing it. The only one who knows what you are talking about is you and until the work is brought to a completion, it will never be understood.
Answering the Call
I accepted the call and embarked on my hero’s journey to make known the unknown, I set out to complete the great work to find the Holy Grail and earn my atonement with God through the experience called life. I have always been spiritual ever since I can remember but I never really understood what spirituality meant until the later years of my life after I had the experiences of my youth and moved into my adulthood.
Publishing with Balboa Press
In my search to find God, I read many spiritual and among them were books published by Balboa Press. Because of the spiritual nature of Balboa, I felt that the message that I wanted to spread would be received by a company such as Balboa and it was. My experience with becoming a published author was everything I could have asked for. I was guided through each step of the process by the Balboa team with dedication, flexibility, and professionalism. The team made it very easy for me to turn my vision and dream into a reality. I am so pleased with the finished product that I will be publishing my next manuscript with Balboa Press because the service has been exemplary.
Never Give UP
It took me eight years to write my book and there were times during that process where Iwas discourage because life of course is not easy. However, when I became discouraged and fell behind. The Balboa team was there for the support I needed as an author and thus I was able to bring a masterpiece into this world. I will be forever grateful to for the collaborative team effort it took to create this book and I am excited to call myself an author for Balboa Press. I look forward to the marketing phase of my book now that all the hard work is done. However, I know that this is where the adventure really begins and for me, I am happy because I have finally reached a moment that I have been waiting for my entire life.
