It’s Finally Happening!

It’s finally happening, ya’ll! This is not a drill. Depending on what time zone you are currently in, it is officially July 9th which means it is officially the release date for my book, All The Words I Kept Inside. For those of you that may live in a different time zone where it’s not past midnight yet, only a few more hours to go!

All The Words I Kept Inside By P. J. Gudka Book Reveal

Over the last few years, I have very literally put my blood, sweat and tears into this book. It’s something that had consumed my very being. It was always at the back of my mind. And now that it’s finally published, I’m pretty much a ball of anxiety lol. I’m both extremely excited and extremely nervous to hear your thoughts on the book.

Thank you to everyone that purchased a copy of the book or will purchase the book in the future. I am eternally grateful for your support. And if you did purchase a copy or are planning on purchasing a copy, I would be even more grateful if you took a minute to leave a review of the book on Amazon and Goodreads. I know it’s annoying to leave a review but it only takes a minute or two and makes a huge difference for the writer. So please do consider it.

I spent tonight celebrating because as my therapist told me, I deserve to treat myself well. I’m often very hard on myself and want to change that.

Anyway, thank you once more and ahhhh it’s finally happening!

Special Thank You

I want to take a minute to thank the phenomenal women that worked on my book. Abigail, my publishing manager who has gone above and beyond to make my dreams a reality. Noelle, my editor, who has been so sweet and encouraging. And Brittany, my proofreader that has helped so much with the final version of the book. Without these awesome women, there would be no book. All this is finally happening thanks to their hard work. They are all a part of Wild Ink Publishing.

Note

I haven’t had the time to respond to the comments or stop by the blogs I usually check out because I’m too busy celebrating my book. I thought I would take care of all that today but my cousins and I decided to go out and celebrate instead. Now it’s late and I’m sleepy so I’ll deal with everything tomorrow. My apologies for being M.I.A but I’m sure you understand. As I have said in previous posts, this is my very first book and I want to enjoy every minute of the process.

    I respect and am happy for anyone who chases their dreams and then goes out and makes them happen. I typically read far more fiction than poetry, but your perseverance is inspiring.

    1. Thanks so much, I really appreciate you saying that. It took a lot of years to complete but was worth it.
