I’m working on something.
It’s… well…
Oh, I can’t say it.
Hey, did you hear the one about the orange that got chicken pox?*
*Pathetic distracting tactic that didn’t work.
Okay fine, I’ll just say it:
(I’m working on a book.)
Whew. That was kind of terrifying for some unknown reason. Apparently, I’m a bit of an introvert when it comes to branching out with my writing.
So, I can’t tell you much because… well, there’s not much to tell. But I really, really want it to be a different kind of book. It’s partially a novel, that much I can tell you. Any more might give it away. (And by “it”, I mean the fact that I don’t know what it’s going to be exactly.)
If I’m absent from my blog for a while, or appear to be churning out empty, meaningless posts in the near future, you’ll know why.
I know what you’re thinking; If those are indications that Abbie’s writing a novel, it would appear that she’s been working one one for 2 years now! (You think I can’t read your thoughts… but I can.)
At any rate, there it is. Out there for the world to see.
I’m telling you guys this for two reasons;
1. I’m counting on you to hold me accountable. When February rolls around and you’ve heard hide nor hair about Abbie’s book… please shoot me a scathing email or comment and let me know that I’d BETTER finish what I start. Thank you 
2. I wanna know… would you read it? I’m feeling that weird “precipice” feeling right now – you know; the one where you’re dangling out in space?? And I think I need some feedback.
Well, that’s all I have to say.
On that needy note, goodbye forever.
Abbie
I’ll read anything you write, Cuz.
And when your book is published, you’ll be my official favorite author.
Your already my favorite cousin, and my favorite writer:)
I’ll send you a simply scathing email in February;)
Love ya,
~Tasha~
P.S. We really do need to talk on the phone more often!
P.S.S. Oh, and if you ever want someone to read through your book while you’re working on it, I’d be happy to do so:)
UM.. I would for SURE read it! I totally understand why it’s terrifying…i’m in the same boat with you!
I might be convinced to read it. If you gave me a free autographed copy and bribed me to give you good reviews…
Now why didn’t I think of that?
Oh wow, Abbie, that is so exciting!!! I will definately take you up on that keeping you accountable thing cause I’d love to read it!
Funny, I just used the word precipice. It’s pretty much exactly how I feel at the moment, too. I’m in the infant stages of a little something, too;) We’ll just hold hands on the edge of that precipice, shall we?
1. I will write you in February asking about the book. And…
2. I’d love to read it!
I like your blog so much, there’s not a remote chance that I wouldn’t consider reading your book.
Good luck!
I’ll read your book.
No, in fact, it WILL be interesting. And quirky. And I think I’ll like it a lot.
It might be interesting.
We shall see, when you finish it, won’t we?
