I Did It 2

I have always wanted a book with my name on it.
So I could show my kids anything is possible
All you need to do is believe and try.
I am shy and judgmental of myself
Making life difficult sometimes.
I have just started letting others read my work.
So I have taking the chance and I sent it in.
I sent my manuscript out today.
Hopefully my dream is soon my reality. 
Hopefully they don't reject it.
Either way I sit here waiting.
