Thinking Forward

I am envisioning the completion of 'The Book'. I have a title in mind (in keeping with weaving peoples stories together, ''Tapestry'' is part of it). And with tapestry in mind, I'm thinking that the family tartan would be a good part of the cover. And in keeping with that, wouldn't it be great if I could miniaturize the family crest and have it mark the beginning of each chapter??

Yes, I'm definately getting ahead of myself but I truly believe by envisioning the completed project in my mind, I am setting myself up for success. The completion of this project (finishing what I've started) defines success for me this first time around.

My mind is swirling with ways to tell our family's story. I am getting excited about it and I hope that feeling that excitement now, it will create excitement (or at least an interest) while the reader is reading it.

These are the meanderings of my mind today. I just have to write them down so I can go back and read them if I lose the inspiration to go forward....
