From Construction Sites to Storytelling

My Journey to Becoming a Fiction Author

Hello, dear readers!

I’m excited to share a bit about my journey from the bustling world of construction to the imaginative realm of fiction writing. It’s been an incredible adventure, filled with unexpected turns and delightful discoveries.

A Foundation in Construction
For many years, I dedicated my career to the construction industry. Building structures, managing projects, and ensuring everything ran smoothly was my daily routine. The principles of lean methodology played a significant role in my work, helping me streamline processes and achieve efficiency. Little did I know, these same principles would later influence my writing.

The Spark of Inspiration
The transition from construction to writing wasn’t immediate. It began with a simple desire to share my knowledge and experiences. I started by writing books on lean methodology, aiming to help others in the industry improve their practices. The positive feedback and engagement from readers were incredibly encouraging.

Embracing Fiction
Inspired by my children when they were young and now by my grandchildren and the joy of storytelling, I decided to venture into the world of fiction. Writing children’s books allowed me to blend creativity with valuable life lessons, crafting tales that would entertain and educate young minds. The process of creating characters, weaving plots, and bringing stories to life was both challenging and rewarding.

Learning and Growing
As a new author of fiction, I’ve embraced the learning curve. From understanding the nuances of character development to mastering the art of engaging storytelling, every step has been a learning experience. The support from fellow authors, readers, and the writing community has been invaluable.

Looking Ahead
I’m thrilled to continue this journey and share more stories with you. Whether it’s a thrilling adventure, a heartwarming tale, or an insightful guide, my goal is to create books that resonate with readers of all ages. Your feedback and support mean the world to me, and I look forward to connecting with you through my stories.

Thank you for being a part of this journey. Stay tuned for more exciting adventures and insights!

Warm regards,

Perry Lee Thompson
