About the Book
A relatable quote for friends and relatives who are experiencing challenging transitions, those who feel left behind in the crazy race of life, including students, graduates, those employed and unemployed, husbands and wives, retirees, and athletes. We are reminded that when the fragmenting effects of pressure and stress seem relentless, we set achievable goals, persevere and maintain a purpose in spite of the difficulty, even when we don't know if we will triumph. A simple sentimental gift for fans of musical theater, the Tony Awards, the Broadway musical, "Hamilton," Lin Manuel-Miranda and his work, historians, and fellow thespians. *** NEW Interior - Sept 2018 --- This journal alternates between 9 LINED pages for writing, 1 BLANK page for sketching/drawing throughout, and 17 quotes from the musical with mini silhouette-style images sprinkled in the interior. Book size: 5.2" x .2" x 8" with 110 pages total. *** It makes a great conversation piece, but its pages can be used for show notes, goals and milestones, a diary of musicals, a record of special memories, sketches and diagrams on the blank pages, a very long bucket list, a notebook for tips and tricks, or all of the above. Make the gift even more special by writing a note or two of your own and tucking a little cash or a gift certificate into the folds.

ON THE BACK COVER: Broadway Musical: "Hamilton" --- This poignant quote is from the inspirational song, "Wait For It," from the Broadway musical, "Hamilton," written by Lin-Manuel Miranda. In the song, Aaron Burr speaks of his undying determination to succeed in the face of Hamilton's swift rise to influence and power. Miranda is quoted as saying, "I think we've all had moments where we've seen friends and colleagues zoom past us, to success, or to marriage, or to homeownership, while we lingered where we were-broke, single, jobless." Work hard. Wait for it. Your time will come. ******Also Available from Write Run Books ***** --- "There's a million things I haven't done, but just you wait. Just you wait."
