I always thought if I wrote a book, it would be a romance novel. It would be filled with love and adventure. The two leading characters would conquer adventure after adventure while falling in love. The classic girl meets boy love story. I guess I would credit that to watching General Hospital as a child. An astrologer would tell me it is due to the Neptune in Pisces aspect of my chart. It doesn’t really matter. It’s odd I am writing a book about a journey which really involved no men at all. That is irony for you.
My story did not start with the exciting meeting in a coffee shop. It didn’t start with a sad tale of heartbreak and loss. Honestly, I don’t know where my story started. If I had to pick a start to this tale, I would have to really think about it. I could use the normal answer and say I was born in a small town in Southern Virginia but that doesn’t even feel like the start of my story. Maybe there really isn’t one specific moment where everything began. It was a sequence of moments.
