Will Become A Reality

Wow - It is going to be a reality

After a mountain of problems and do-overs

It's finally going to happen

I am finally going to get my book published

I admit I was doubting it for awhile

But its finally going to happen

I had a bunch of do-overs

I had someone helping me that was a software engineer

He had been publishing for fifteen years

First we had to re-do all the emoji's

Then we had to re-take all the photo's because they had shadows on them

But we are working through the problems

And it is finally going to be a reality

An for your enjoyment- here is one of the more recent emoji's and I will

remind you that it is an original drawing and protected by copyright

What do you think of the emoji????
