I have been deep into politics for the past few years, and it is beginning to truly weigh on me, so at the end of 2018, I came to a personal decision that I was going to partake in a project I have been putting off for a couple of decades now.
One of my goals in life is to publish a novel (or multiple). I have enjoyed the written word since childhood, and have always meant to create a novel. As most of you know, however, life happens, and I have always come up with excuses to avoid working on said novel. I have decided there is no more room for excuses, and I am not getting any younger at this point, so 2019 is the year of the Dunkel Novel!
I have teamed up with a friend of mine who is also going to be working on a book in 2019, and we will be supporting each other throughout the process by peer checking material and holding each other to self-imposed deadlines.
I will continue blogging as well, because there is no escaping the world around us and I will most certainly still need a vehicle to direct my venting toward throughout the year. I will ensure to post update blogs on progress made with the novel, and I will tell you now that my goal is to have a completed novel ready for editing and publishing by the end of the year.
If within the next couple of years I am holding a hard bound book with my name printed on the cover, one of my major bucket list goals in life will be complete. Now, the true goal is to have people read past the cover, love what is inside, and want a second novel to read...but let's start with getting the first one completed and published.
As a sneak peek into my brainstorm, I will say that the novel is going to be a reality meets fantasy genre that will hopefully be enjoyable for people of all ages. I am excited, and I look forward to putting some true effort into a project I have dreamed of for so long.
So that is all for the Blog today. As I am sure you all know, the Democrats are back in control of the House again, so I am sure there will be all sorts of wonderful and mind numbing political things to discuss in the coming weeks. Welcome to 2019, a political nightmare that will seemingly never end!
