Congratulations. I will note that, for all aspiring writers’ information, that Jordan Peterson was so frustrated by the incompetence of his students at writing essays that he wrote instructions on how to do it, and ultimately got collaborators, notably including his son, to create https://www.selfauthoring.com "self authoring" software which I believe is available for use for $30.
I saw a youTube video in which the use of this software was discussed by Jordan and his daughter and son. Jordan’s son explained that he had software writing credentials and that he had put a lot of effort into making the interface self-explanatory. The design was specifically for writing essays, but they noted that proper usage to create an essay is to write way more prose than you plan to publish, then cut it down to size - in the process, necessarily “discarding” text that you wrote and have fallen in love with. Instead of literally deleting such text, the program saves it for future use in other essays.
Bottom line here is that they asserted that their authoring pgm would be serviceable for writing a book by composing it one chapter (“essay”) at a time.
FWIW.

I signed up for the Lucianne website and kept the same moniker. When I posted that Lucianne used to bump uglies with Hubert Humphries on FR I got banned from the Lucianne.com website..Things always work out for the better. Good Luck with your book.

The challenge, love, and toil of book writing, when complete, should alwways be tethered with the exclamation,, ‘excelsior!’
Now comes the hard art, or so I am told, releasimg it from your hands into that enigmatic creature, “the reddin’ ‘n’ comprendin’ hoomin’.
I wish you three print release editions!!

Nana is proud of you and your accomplishment

Not only is FR a house of learning, it is an incredibly important historical record.

Possibly one of the most valuable and accurate historical records anywhere, especially in these last days of liars EVERYWHERE.

Yea, I never liked her forum, at least for commenting, her whole site was a pain with all the adds, Slowed things down, and the cookies were incredibly a pain.

I have been doing that for years. Often times I can get off into a rabbit hole. Then I sit back and realize it. Instead of deleting, I save, and many have become their own commentaries through the years.
