Listening to Our Guides

My book, whose working title is DRIVING DREAMS, is now complete, at least it's as complete as it will be before an editor gets his/her hands on it. It's been torn to shreds, reshaped, cut in half, pasted back together, and polished. Now it's in its third incarnation. None of this would have been possible without wise guides, patient readers and insightful helpers who have been willing to sit down and read all or parts of it over the years. Then there are those who have said a kind word when I most needed it, or passed along some wisdom that directly applied to the issue was wrestling with in the book.

No matter what we're working toward in our lives, we all have guides and helpers. But do we always recognize them? I've found that a lot of insight comes from least-expected places. But if you're listening for it, you'll find it.
