In the summer of 2015, I had an experience that I believe was planned by God. I was stressed about an upcoming job change, and I went for a walk on a foggy, pre-dawn morning. A conversation between two owls stopped me in my tracks, and I listened to them for a while. After that, I couldn't get the owls out of my head, nor would the frequency of seeing snowy white owls stop. During that foggy morning walk, I wrote a little rhyming poem about the owls. For the next four years, I pushed the signs away, even as the frequency of them increased. By 2019, with stories constantly swirling in my thoughts and battling intense insomnia, I finally decided to embrace the idea and start my educational journey. I knew it would be a lot of work, but I had already had experience of what life was like when you don't listen to God. It's not fun. I spent three years clearing my mind of ten stories and dedicated myself to learning everything I could about the self-publishing industry. This included building a website and creating my accounting sheets using Google Sheets. The deal that I made with God is that I will grind and do the work, and He will take care of the results. After all, this was His idea. The result has been one blessing after another. "Know the plans I have for you, to prosper and not fail." I am excited that He chose to prepare me for such a great retirement mission. It's so important to have a purpose and add value in life. I am looking forward to see what He has in store for Tall Girl Publishing.
