Almost Done
After literally 5 years, I am almost done with the last ten years biopic. I have gotten to August 1999, the story will end March 18, 2000 on the wedding day. I have no idea how many different cities, time zones, email accounts, laptops, computers, and vehicles I have written that epic, but it is almost done. Then I will spend another few months editing it. I am at around 165 pages right now, I am pretty sure that it will end around 200. Once it is complete, I will bind it in a folder and let it sit. Then the next great adventure will occur. Called the First 18 years. I am losing memories from my childhood. Luckily I have been writing as many as I can remember down in a notes document so that I can go back and put them in the final document.
If I can get that done in say 4-5 years. Then I start on the “Next” 10 years document, which will primarily be about Molly and the change from Jacksonville to San Diego. In 2010 Molly will be 9 and in 3rd grade. Just about the time when I was a kid that I relly started remembering things very vividly. I think things are working out well for this epic. Granted, it is really only for me to do and enjoy, but I am sure Molly will enjoy it when she gets older.
