Life and The BIG Announcement 

11/30/2015

A little more than a month from now, I will be thirty. 

I have been dreading turning thirty. 

Seriously. Dreading. It. 

To me, turning thirty meant you already have a steady job, you already have a nice home, and you already have or about to start your own family. 

To me, being thirty meant you are an official adult. There is no turning back now. 

Until recently, I didn't want to turn thirty, because I don't have a nice house of my own, like everybody else. I don't have a "typical" job, where I get paid every two weeks, like everybody else. I don't have a significant other, who I can come home and talk to every night. And if I don't have any of those things now? When I'm weeks away from being thirty? When will I ever get it? 

However, it wasn't until recently that being an adult doesn't mean you have a nice house, a fancy car, or a significant other to keep you company. 

Being an adult means knowing what you want. 

Being an adult means knowing what you don't want. 

Being an adult means taking responsibility of your life. 

Being an adult means being independent to the best of your ability. 

Now that I know this, I am ready to take on the big 3. 0. I may still not like the idea of getting older, but I never, ever, want to repeat this year. I don't really want to go into detail, but this year has been the toughest year of my life. It was full of heartbreak, let down, and change. Three things I am NOT good with. 

However, I finally am settling down into my new life. I have accepted what I cannot change. And I am just being my own me. 

I am ready to be thirty.

I am ready for 2016! 

Which brings me to the point of this post. 

I wanted to be done with my first draft today. That didn't happen. There is just so much I want to put it in. I already know I'm going to be extremely proud of it. It's just taking me a little more time than I thought. So, to make a long story short . . .

My big announcement today . . .

My second novel, SWITCH THE SONG, will be out August 9, 2016! 

Be ready for it. 

Be ready for 2016. 

Because I know I am.

That is so awesome. Being ok with what is ahead is the hardest thing to do. Especially when it isn't the version you thought it would be but the version that is mentioned to be. Keep being you!!!
