This is a story that should be in a bad B-Movie, but somehow it is real.
It started over ten years ago when a new co-worker joined our group. She had left her last job when her boss won the sexual harassment case. In the time I knew her, which was less than a year, she was stalked and attacked by her ex, her 6 year old son was attacked by neighborhood bullies with broken beer bottles and needed four surgeries, had her car stolen, and lastly slipped on a freshly mopped floor at work and fell breaking her tailbone.
Over the next year I heard occasional updates on her from other co-workers. She wound up in a wheelchair, living with her mother supporting her and her three boys. Medical bills lost her mom her house. Then some good news, her lawsuit against the company for her injury settled out of court for $2 million.... and a month later a drunk driver killed her and her kids.
Two months after that I got word that a friend of mine was dying of breast cancer... a month after that I was T-boned while driving.. over the few months saw : my spine crushed from a horse accident, hubby losing his job (and has not held one for more than 6 months since), two of my horses dead, and other things I choose not to remember. That all started in '04? My luck has stayed the same over the years. I have had multiple surgeries that I refuse to remember. Cancer. Black mold in my first house. Lost my ability to work. Can't get my book published. Health is shot, hubby is dying of depression right along with me.
As long as this luck does not move to my daughter when I die, it will be ok.

Perhaps a change of scenery is exactly what you and your husband need! A new start on life!
Keep looking around-all kinds of people look to help people get a book going-what is it about?
I hope you are feeling better. I know, though, that your pain is a constant. This CP journey gets wearying and exhausting, doesn't it?

As for seeing it in book form, done that. I made a couple copies myself, bound them in leather for Xmass gifts a couple years ago - but about three revisions ago!

Just a thought-perhaps looking around online for other sci fi writers-at their websites and see if you can contact them and see how they suggest getting your work looked at-just don't hand it over to them so they can steal it from ya though
But that is on hold until I move out of this house. Once I start into my book I don't come up for air for weeks at a time!I just have too much to get done to do that right now.
