Nervous but Excited
I've been asked by a local group to be its guest speaker next month. I'm really nervous because I've never done anything like that before. But I'm flattered and excited because they asked me.
I'm also excited because I'm hoping the speaking engagement (*giggle* I have a speaking engagement) will boost sales of my book, as well as generate interest in book number two.
Ever since I was asked to do this I've been practicing in front of the bathroom mirror. I'm getting better, I think. Thirty more days of practice should have me ready. I hope it gets rid of my nerves ... and keeps me from shaking uncontrollably while I'm talking.
I keep telling myself this is good practice for when I'm on Oprah.
