That's easy: I hope to write a book that will touch the hearts and minds of readers. I want to write a book that everyone is talking about, because they can't get the characters out of their minds. I want to finally be able to say, "I'm a published author" with pride, because others will have heard of the book. I want to be able to take my frequently-ignored husband out to dinner with my royalties, to thank him for being such a supportive man while I listened to my muse and spent hours tapping away on my laptop. But most of all, I hope to meet some readers who have read my books and want to tell me how much they enjoyed it, how it gave them a new perspective on love and life, and how they have put me on "auto-buy", as they anxiously await my next book.
Sigh...
