Well done!! And congrats. I read and re-read
the "catalog" description on your website and it
says more to me each time. Especially the part about
what we are all "capable" of. You are a wonderful example of how much people are capable of...
horsepersonship, teacher, student, medical technologist, sailor, diver, AUTHOR and sooooo
much more!! And best, to me and others who
are fortunate to know you—friend:)

THAT is awesome!
I'm so glad you found your way over to my blog! Now I'll have to catch up on my reading over here at your place.
congratulations!!!
Welcome to the world of publishing, Pat. And, yes, you'll now have to say you're an AUTHOR, which makes everything feel less surreal. I'm so happy for you!
Fabulous! Yes, now it's official (It was official before but now it's in black and white!)
I haven't heard from Emily yet but I assume she'll be submitting to editors this week. I am very busy distracting myself with another fun writing project (news on that coming up soon!) and redeocating my house. I discovered long ago that the best thing is just not to think too much....
This sounds like a cool book, too! Contrats!
Woo Hoo - congratulations!!! You're right, there's something about seeing it listed "officially" that makes it, well, official :)
Your novel sounds fanatastic - I look forward to next Fall!!!
Brava Pat!
That is so very wonderful!
I look forward to seeing your book on the shelves in August! (and you can bet I will be getting my copy as soon as I see it!)
