Yesterday morning I turned in the manuscript for my book Plastic-Free: How I Kicked the Plastic Habit and How You Can Too, which will be published by Skyhorse and come out early next year.

There were days I thought I wouldn’t finish, like in one of those dreams where the faster you walk, the faster the light seems to recede into the tunnel away from you.  Wait, is that a real dream or a movie dream?  Doesn’t matter.  It was like that.  It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done, vastly harder than training for a marathon.  And it’s still not finished.  Now, my editor at the publishing company will read it and edit it, and I’m sure I’ll have more work to do.  But for now, I can breathe.

Thanks for your patience.  Thanks to those who kept the conversation going in the Discussion Forum ^[1] or on Facebook ^[2] or through the Show Your Plastic Challenge ^[3].  I’ll start regularly posting again next week.  Until then… will you please leave a comment with something good in it?  Good could be a funny joke or story.  Good could be an awesome recipe.  Good could be a clever solution you have found to a problem.  Anything that you think is cool.  It doesn’t have to have anything to do with plastic.

There could be a prize in it for ya.  :-)
