New Idea

I am really excited for the new story I just finished last night.  When great ideas come to me, they come to me fast and I can finish in less than an hour.  I know, crazy, right? It's efficient for me.  I have now at my disposal, 3 completed stories ready to be illustrated and then published.  It's a strange thing...my best ideas come to me late at night.  Anywhere from 12am-4am.  Ah!  Who stays up that late anyways??  The very odd time, I will almost be shocked awake by a wonderful idea, and I refuse to just let it sit there until morning.  Reason for that, is simply this...I would forget the idea.  So, I scrape myself out of bed, find my pen and papers (never too far away), and I scribble my thoughts down immediately. 
This particular story is very dear to me.  It is something I am passionate about.  The only thing I will reveal to you is: Have you ever read the story by Shel Silverstein, The Giving Tree?  Do you remember the feeling you got when reading it? Well, I know how I felt.  It was a very emotional and moving story.  My hope is, that I spark that similar feeling to my readers.  Yes, it is a children's book, however is has a strong message in it, that I think adults will relate to as well.  Keep your eyes peeled for it, and I will make sure to update you! You won't want to miss it, I promise you. It's a very special story if I do say so myself. If I can move just one person, then that's all I ask for! Best wishes one and all! Much love!
