You did it and what a fabulous feeling it is to be an author! Many people talk about writing a book, but never follow through. It is hard work: writing, the rewrites, feedback from editors/others, editing, more editing, finding the right cover, and the hardest part can be the title and book blurb. Then there’s marketing, which very few authors enjoy. However, once you publish one book, it’s easier to do another.

You've clearly already done this, Pamela. There's so much to do to self-publish a book but, as you say, it's a fabulous feeling when you finally get it done! Thank you for your very apposite comment.

So agree about the book blurb! The very hardest part swiftly followed by the author bio.

Hi there Patricia, congratulations on all your successes. I know just how hard it was for you because my career was quite similar. I'm just going to get a copy of your book from Amazon. Best wishes, Rosemary

Hi Rosemary, Thank you for your congrats and for getting a copy of my book. The second half of life certainly proved to be more productive for me and maybe for you too. I appreciate your comment.
