THE UNIVERSE DOES INDEED HAVE A GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR

It’s been an amazing ride since my last newsletter in late August.  For those of you who are following my process, I was about to re-submit a book proposal to Inner Traditions Publishing (Bear & Company) in hopes of getting a book contract for my latest book: Larger than Life;  Becoming the 5D Human You Are Meant to Be.

Inner Traditions gets swamped with proposals.  The first time I submitted, after many synchronicities and help from my friend and neighbor, Linda Star Wolf, I received feedback that it was looking good.  Then I heard… nothing.  No response to my emails.  Ultimately I gave up hoping there was a contract in my future.

What I did find out from their pre-order catalog was that they were publishing a book called Waking Up in 5D which sounded uncannyingly similar to mine. When I finally read the book upon its release, I found it was not the same.  It turns out that Larger than Life would be its perfect companion. Waking Up in 5D focuses on our spiritual development, while Larger than Life looks deeply into the psychological, emotional and social changes, each with their inherent challenges, posed by this next evolutionary step. Each book provides an important contribution about evolving into humans who will hold a 5th dimensional frequency, embodying the consciousness of Oneness and Unconditional Love, and from there transform our planet.

With the awareness, I deliberated ad nauseam, if I wanted to send in a new proposal.  (no doubt a argument between my 3D and 5D self). Finally, I got a clear internal message that no matter what the outcome, the re-submission process would give me more vibrancy and growth and so with a renewed sense of purpose, I rewrote a proposal which I submitted in early September.  A few weeks later, I got word, via Star Wolf who has published several books with Inner Traditions and has sent them many authors, that once again, it was looking good.  And once again, more time passed and I heard…nothing.  Two months went by. I became certain they were not going to take the book. (the submission information on their website says if you don’t hear in 2 months, they are not interested.). I grieved.  I despaired.  I found tidbits of hopefulness that I might have connections with other publishers.  I despaired some more, feeling that my work was not destined to get the recognition I believe it deserves.  Since I know I create my reality, I worked with all the parts of myself I could find that might sabotage me, and then despaired I would not transform them quickly enough in this lifetime.

By early December, I was able to recoup and start looking at other options.  A week later, I emailed a woman who had a small press, hoping that she might express interest.  I was also getting clarity that this book needed to be available to the public by late 2019, or early 2020, and that if I couldn’t find a publisher, I would just self-publish it.  The next day, I returned home from town went to my computer and to my literal shock there was an email from the Acquisitions Editor at Inner Traditions which began with “I’m sorry…” (my mind immediately computing this was an official rejection) and continued with “…it took so long to get back to you… we’d like to offer you a contract!”  I could not believe it.  I had totally let it go!  It actually took me several hours to feel embodied around what had just happened.

I had known all along this was my sacred purpose, and wanted this work to be published by Inner Traditions.  Apparently though, my old wounds and self-doubts had to arise and be quelled, and my ego needed to let it go, before I could see this manifested in the physical.  But manifest it did!  Larger than Life will be out in Spring of next year!  I hope this inspires those of you struggling with similar issues.  We are all part of a massive 5D team, forming an energy around the planet, each of us with an important part to play, to bring a New Earth, based on peace, love, kindness and harmony, into being.  If you are not yet feeling like you are making your full contribution, I encourage you not to give up.  Keep plugging along with as much faith as you can muster, knowing that the Universe might have to mess with you a bit, but if you are clear and intent about your personal mission, whether it be ‘big’ or ‘small’, you will manifest.
