My first book was actually a movie script then I rewrote it into a play, then I rewrote it into a book. Then I ended up rewriting the book several times. Finally I was like, alright I’m done.
I was injured at work. And I have a long history of shoulder problems in my left shoulder, even after surgery. After my right shoulder also got hurt; the shoulder specialist I visited said “if you keep doing construction, your body will get to a point where it will start breaking down and you’ll be forced to quit construction. It won’t happen when your 60-70 it will be in about 10 years. Sorry but I don’t see construction in your future.†So I needed to think about what I wanted to do. I had started to write a book. So I decided to finish it and go from there.
