make your words work for you

In Which I Hold My Own Novel for the First Time

First Photo

Yesterday at 5pm I answered the phone to Mama saying, “Two boxes are here.”

I immediately tossed the phone in my bag and hopped in the truck to face rush hour traffic. I took a shortcut that ended up not being a shortcut at all. But I got there.

I opened the box and there they were. My dream come true in the beautiful matte finish I hadn’t even known I’d wanted until I learned that I would be getting it.

Apparently I got mine first because Amazon orders are on a delayed shipping notice. Sorry, friends, am I rubbing it in that I’m first, LOL?

And carrying one copy around with me, not letting it out of my sight. This feels like Daringness.

Thank you again for all your support and kind words and social media love. I’m floating…
