Website release of ChristieKoester.com

Well, here I go!!! Hello world!!! So I spent a few weeks putting together my personal website (www.christiekoester.com), which highlights myself as a writer and introduces my future book idea! I'm sure there will be some minor changes along the way, but the storyline should stay pretty consistent. I am very, very excited about this book!!! Almost as excited as I was about planning my very own wedding...!!

This whole website may sound crazy for some, but writing a book and getting it published has been and still is a dream of mine. I'm a believer that dreams do come true, especially if we are determined enough and have a lot of faith in ourselves. We just have to have the confidence to push forward. How do we know unless we try? That's my motto! I really have put a lot of thought into how I'm going to accomplish this dream. I know it's going to take A LOT of work to get published, but I also know we can just about accomplish anything we set our minds to.

I'm very grateful I have a job, but I can't help but think as I roll out of bed every morning that I was meant for so much more. Creative writing is what I love to do. More importantly who doesn't enjoy a good love story? Like I mentioned above, one of my favorite moments in life was planning our wedding. So I thought, wouldn't this make the PERFECT book? Romance! A wedding! Oh, and the best part...trying to find the perfect guy! This has my name written all over it. I read on a few of my favorite author's websites that hopeful writers need to write about subjects they are passionate about. If that's the case, I'm golden. Anyone who knows me probably would describe me as the gal who asks strangers, only seconds after meeting them, how they met their significant other. Can't help it. I love LOVE!

So anyway, I hope you enjoy my website. I hope you continue to follow me on this journey - it could be a long one, but I plan on making this work! Thanks for your support and encouragement - it makes this adventure a good one!! Please email me your comments. I would love to hear from you!

oh, and here's to dreaming big... Why not, right? What's there to lose?
