Here I sit, cobwebs filling my mind, as I wait. Never was good at waiting. I almost will gladly accept another “no,” rather than wait to hear a “yes.” But let me tell you about my recent weekend conference where I heard a wonderful author who inspired me so much, I couldn’t wait to rush right out and buy some of her books. The line to get her autograph stretched all across that conference hall and out the door. I should have done what many others did- buy the book and get the autograph later. But I didn’t. For 2 days I tried. Finally on last day, I had slim pickings, but I did get a quick chat with the author. Why is it every author seems to live the dream life and I don’t? Oh yeah…I haven’t sold anything, yet. Oh yeah, I’m still waiting to hear back. And so I wait…
About Me
- Sandi
- Sandi Underwood was born a PK (Preacher’s Kid) in the beautiful East Tennessee Mountains, where family stories were passed down, generation-to-generation. Her love of writing was cultivated at an early age when family get-togethers and Church dinners-on-the-grounds provided an idyllic backdrop for memories that fuel her stories. Sandi’s early career included working with children in both the public and private sectors. Later in life, her path took a different direction, but her love of books was ever-present. Today, she shares a home with her rescue dog, Gus, and draws inspiration from her grandchildren as she continues to write for both children and adults.
