So I have officially started writing my first pagan book. I have working at it for roughly a week and I am making some good progress to the book. I have made myself some goals and deadlines and working very hard to achieve them. While I don't want to destroy the project with poorly written material, I have made a 5,000 word a week quota. I am wanting to have at least an 80,000 word count book to publish.
Once I realized how to make seem like an not so big task, the fear left me. 80,000 words is a lot to fill. However once I decided to just work on all the smaller topics on an individual basis, it became easy. Like in a couple of weeks I will be writing about the sabbats. If I do one a night it will take me just over a week and I will have used a large portion of the words for that section of the book. I have roughly 4,000 words written so far.
The title that I am working with at the moment is "Pagan Journey" . I am blending in parts from my journey with a general introduction to paganism and Celtic traditions. To be different than most pagan books that focus strictly on learning, I am also talking about the social aspects of being a pagan in a mixed culture society.
I have just over 200 likes on The Pagan Learning Open Circle. I am pretty proud of that number, it is a good start for my other projects. I even have 170 subscribers on my YouTube account. Before I started the Pagan Learning open Circle I only had roughly 40 subscribers. So things are starting to form nicely.
I want to wish everyone a Blessed Yule and a Happy New Year. Take good care of yourself and be at peace.
