I love that you're writing a book. I have written two that I self published and neither one sold but it didn't really matter to me. Just doing what I love. I've started my third book which is basically my favorite photographs that I've taken over the past year that I'm writing poems to (mainly haikus and lyrical) and I'm enjoying every minute of it.

I'm also rereading some of the classics that I read when I was much younger and boy, do they read differently with many years of life under my belt. I just finished Dickens' "Great Expectations" and it was like reading a totally different novel when I first read it so long ago. It made me recognize how what I sometimes focus in on is just not that important and doesn't make me happy. And happiness isn't determined on who is president (although Trump makes it a challenge).

Next up - reread of "Animal Farm". Just seems necessary.
