I grew up ridding horses, what can I say!

I have been absent for a long time on this blog and now it is time to post again.  If anyone is reading this please let me know.  I have many subscribers but I am sorry I have not posted for so long.  It is a time for posting again as I am writing again for a book I hope to publish.  I have been busy editing and learning more about writing.  It is a humbling experience to write and I once heard that even published writers have periods of doubt!  I am learning as I write and often wish I had paid more attention to reading and writing and not just math (along with science, it came easy for me).

I have overcome a reading disability (I prefer to call learning disabilities, learning differences) and continue to improve my vocabulary.  Many years ago when I decided to get some college education, my wife became acutely aware of my deficit in vocabulary.  I explained how I hated reading, but listened to people talk and sorta learned the meanings of word, however reading was still a brutal challenge for me.

Now that I was in college I carried a pocket dictionary, had to take bonehead English and often had to read the assigned chapters as many as three times because of my poor vocabulary. I did obtain an undergrad degree and then a masters in Marriage and Family Therapy.  It was a grueling process, but I have overcome most of that deficit and am still learning and loving the process. Editing my writing is a lot of work, but I learn as I go.

Will he live up to his promise, only time will tell, tune in next week.  Hopefully I can keep this up, but I am not going to condemn myself if not. That mind set comes very rarely these days and with God’s help leaves quickly.
