I had black and white prints made of a bunch of my favorite photos from this year, and special old family photos too.. It’s a good idea to get copies printed especially for this purpose because everyone who comes to your house will come up and touch the photos when they look at them, which is just fine!
I came up with a few different ideas for the book and got myself ready to talk about my general vision for what type of book I would want it to be and how I would want it to look and feel.I still felt like I really had to sell myself on that second call, maybe even more so than on the first call, but it was much easier when I knew that I was the one who would be doing most of the talking, job interview-style..
So we landed on a concept pretty quickly and they asked me to send them a list of the chapters that I wanted to include in the book, along with the introductions to each of those chapters as it would appear in the book,.1-2 fully-written chapters for them to look over.within a week or so and then they would look it over and make their final decision as to whether or not they really wanted to have me write this book for them.
Basically I wrote a really big chunk of the book and came up with most of my ideas for how the book would come together within about a week.That sounded like a nearly impossible feat at first, but it was really amazingly easy!
I loved seeing a whole book kind of materialize in front of my eyes within a few days..
So, fast forward a few more weeks and they decided that we were good to go with the book!So I just wanted to pop in really quick today and give you the news!.
