It's amazing, isn't it, where we land when we take big leaps of faith.
Ten years ago, my husband nudged (or gave me a big shove), to take a leap of faith and pursue my dream of becoming a full-time author.
I was working crazy hours at a job that no longer held any joy for me, for a boss with unrealistic, ever-increasing demands.
Although we'd talked many times about where we needed to be financially before I could quit, one morning Captain Cavedweller (my hubby) called and told me it was time to quit and chase after my dreams.
It required a huge leap of faith to let go of the security my job offered, but I did it. And I haven't regretted it. Not a single day.
Dreams don't chase you back. The only way to make them come true is to go after them.
And I've been incredibly blessed in this adventure of writing. I've met amazing people, made so many wonderful friends, and my readers make me smile every single day with their kindness, encouragement, and support.
As a thank you, and to celebrate this ten-year milestone, I invite you to join me for a party on Facebook in my Hopeless Romantics group.
