Dream Launched!

April 13th, 2010 by Regina Brett

 

Today is the day and all I can hear is the voice of Dr. Seuss ringing through my head:

 

Congratulations!

Today is your day!

You're off to Great Places!

You're off and away!

 

Today I'm officially an author. My dream came true. Ever since I read Harriet the Spy as a kid, I wanted to be a writer, even though I fought Mr. Ricco in 9th grade English when he forced us to write a paragraph a day. Today I send him blessings. Every time I look at this book with my name on it, I feel a sense of awe and peace and gratitude.

 

Last night we kicked off the book launch with a family dinner at Nighttown. My grandson's eyes grew big as the bread plates when he heard a blast of jazz coming from the other room. What a great reminder that every day is the day for something new, for something great. 

 

Every today is the day.
