Half Way Mark with My Historical Novel!

I'm finally half way through writing a historical novel based on my family the migrated from France to Canada and finally settled in Louisiana.  I can't wait to have it finished and hope to give it to my father as something he never did but wanted to.  It will be my gift to a life long desire never completed.

I have to say writing a manuscript is tedious to say the least when you work full time and have small children!  I really admire and respect writers even more now!
