My book is going well.

Monday, October 22nd, 2007

HI…I have not written on my blog for a while now, as I am so busy writing my book on the GFCF diet. I am so motivated to getting it finished (I still have a long way to go)…as you know with Jenny Mc Carthy’s  appearances on so many shows discussing her book….there is a huge need for my book! I glanced at Jenny’s book for about an hour last week at Border’s. I was not totally impressed, as she used an awful lot of cuss words. I am not a prude, but I do not think those were necessary and it made the book look weak and had less credible.

I am compiling ideas that I have used, helpful things that many have thanked me for, some ideas from others; about what works for them, or what helped them and a whole variety of things like, where to find certain foods, brand names, etc.

This book is taking  up  lot of  my time, researching companies and details that I have in my cupboard and on my computer, but not completely in my head.

I am enjoying writing it and hope a literary agent will see the value in it, then a publisher will do the same.

Once one book is out …the 2nd (Putting Your Kids First) will not be far behind! 

I am writing my second book…on the GFCF diet

Wednesday, October 10th, 2007

Well…I have decided to put my “Putting Your Kids First” book on hold for a bit. It is completed, but it takes so much time to get to literary agents…then publishers..and it will always be a timely subject.

Now the GFCF diet has become my primary focus. Thanks to Jenny Mc Carthy, who has had her face plastered all over..I need to do this NOW. She has spoken of the positive results that her son and family have experienced. The word is out. It does work! It can work!

I have been passing out my 4 page info packet on the diet for several years now on several message boards, as well as when I speak at autism support groups. Well , now I am on a GFCF kids yahoo group message board  spreading the info some more.  http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/GFCFKids/

Gosh…one of the moms from another message board mentioned my web site and my knowledge in one post and the emails have not stopped……I am thrilled!!! This has given me the push to get this GFCF book completed. There is so much information that I have to give…it will take time. Parents need to know how to do this diet. It isn’t just as easy as taking away gluten and casein and dyes.

There are other wonderful resources and books out there… but nothing as comprehensive as the one that I am writing. My book will have step-by-step details on every aspect of this diet, how to’s, when, why, where, etc.

I am so fired up about this!

My freelancing career is taking off, too. I just got published again. I wrote an article on health related facilities, where to seek help for many different illnesses, disorders and diseases.

I think this is a turning point in my life. I can just picture myself on Oprah!!!

Yes, that is my goal! I have an important message to get out. This diet CAN work and there are thousands who know that and thousands more that need to find out.

With statistics 1 out of 150 kids being on the autism spectrum…and more and more are being diagnosed daily…the word must get out there. There is hope!

Hugs.
