I'm sorry I'm late, but.. well, you know how it goes!<br /><br />That's a great story, definitely the kind that puts knots in the stomach as you get closer and closer. <br /><br />And I've heard so much about you -- you also sound like you're a cool person behind that cool book.Problem Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01456049865200737618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18688033.post-49091720902653147562011-01-26T14:42:13.549-06:002011-01-26T14:42:13.549-06:00Loved hearing about your journey.

And I hope you liked my Nick & Nora slippers. :-)<br /><br />Jeannene & Kathy (Hi there!), the journey never really ends in writing, but so far, I've had an eventful one!<br /><br />Angel, when I received the Advance Reader Copies (ARCs), I cried. Publishing my first book is truly a dream come true.<br /><br />Marilyn, I hope you enjoy HTMAD! Will you be at RWA '11 in NYC this summer? If so, I hope to see you there.<br /><br />Many thanks, Cheryl. I always tell aspiring authors to never give up.<br /><br />Thanks, Virginia and Patricia.<br /><br />Lynn - xoxoxo. Everyone, Lynn judged HTMAD in a contest back in 2008 - I cried when I read her comments. Lynn, I hear you on the RITA books - I've got some new releases from friends I'm having to put on the back burner. <br /><br />Thanks again, everyone!
