When this first popped into my inbox this week, I thought I should save it and share it when I’m ready to start a new WIP. That could be awhile though. First come finished edits and proofs of CROSSFIRE and then finishing up the Boston Wolves, which at about half-way completed, sooo not a new project. As I’ve mentioned before, I tend to relate these messages from the Universe to writing but this isn’t a blog for writers. Not strictly speaking. It’s a blog for readers and anyone who happens to stumble across this place and decide to take a peek. I’ve long held that each new day is a beginning of a new journey so what not share this?
The baby steps in the beginning of a journey, Silver, always seem inadequate compared to the brilliance of the dream that inspired them. This is natural. If the dream wasn’t so far “out there” and dazzling, it wouldn’t be worth dreaming!
Just don’t be led to think that the physical ground you cover with your baby steps is all that they accomplish. Because for every mortal step you take, another cog in a giant wheel behind the curtains of time and space advances, and with it 10,000 new possibilities.
Better than Star Trek,
The Universe

This is what it feels like to start writing a new book or for you non-authors, a new project. Full of ideas and hopes and plans. And we take that first baby step, unsure, wondering if we’re really ready to take on the challenge. What journey are you starting today? Where will your baby steps take you?
