All I Want for Christmas

All I want for Christmas is to finish the first draft of my book by December 31st. I am barreling towards the finish line. Tomorrow I will finish Chapter 11. The first 9 chapters have already been through the editor and back for rewrites and approvals. Chapter 12 begins in April 2005-HWI's first project as a organization to get 4 bikes to educators in Angola through Rise International. Maybe 6 chapters to go. The "grueling gusting headwinds" of the difficult chapters are behind me. Now I think "It is a fun downhill coast ahead!"

I must credit my editor and coach Stephanie for her amazing skills, talents and encouragement. Without her my dream would still be spinning around in my head.
