Anna’s Obsession
Here they all are. Way back when I started writing, when my son gave me that very first little laptop computer, back then, I didn’t have internet, and I didn’t have any new books to read or a way to go get any. I started by writing in a notebook left over from homeschooling the boys, but they were in town now getting their GEDs, drivers’ licenses, and training in a trade. On their first visit home, one of them presented me with this little computer. First thing I thought was, what do you do with a computer without internet? Well – it would be fun to see if I remember anything from my high school typing class.
That little computer was amazing. I learned more about grammar and spelling from that Word program than I ever picked up in school. Even homeschooling didn’t teach me that much, though I learned from that too. It also had an encyclopedia in it, which was awesome. Unfortunately, that encyclopedia is no longer supported, and it’s no longer compatible with my computer. Sigh. I do miss it still.
In 2008, we went to Fairbanks to spend our first winter away from home, my goal was to have internet access so I could publish my first book. When we got home, long about that fall sometime, we had a satellite dish installed here, and thus began my greatest distraction from my writing. Between those two points in time, almost all of those books up there were written. I was a writing monster.
Since then, I’ve produced four books, two of which are short stories, and started a very long series that I’m still working on. Other than that, I’ve polished up what I have and learned how to navigate the publishing world. After trying a subsidy publisher (a VERY expensive learning curve) and a small publishing company as well as a mid-range publishing company, I took the plunge and published the rest myself. I even reclaimed those I stuck out there under someone else’s apron. I like my books under my name – I also like their new covers.
So now – finally – all those books I wrote way back when, are published, and in a few months, they will all be over on SmashWords too.
My next dream – a movie deal. What do you think?
