P is for Proud!

…Did you panic, A-Z friends? *Grins* Don’t worry. Today isn’t “P”; it’s “H”. I just needed a title to express today’s sentiments, and that fit perfectly. Why? Well, you might want to make like the Easter bunny and hightail it over to Lisa L.Regan’s blog first. 

Go ahead. I’ll wait.

♫ I’m waitin’… drinkin’ my green tea… singin’ to myself… ♫
(That’s exactly what I did. See? I told you I’m worse in person.)

So, did you read the news?

Lisa, my rock star critique partner, just signed a book deal with Sapphire Star Publishing! *The crowd goes wild!*

Wondering where you’ve heard about SSP recently? I’d venture to say it was Nancy S. Thompson’s announcement last month. (Another one of my critters!) How awesome is that? I love these two to death, so please join me in congratulating them.

Cue the confetti cannons! :D

  7. I think it's wonderful that you're sharing your friends' exciting news. It is thrilling. They are now members of the club. It feels weird at first, until reality sets in. Then they'll wake up one day and think, "Wow, now I understand what everyone was talking about!"

    Never to be the same again. LOL. What a glorious event.

  10. . . . I'm ashamed to say I hadn't heard the news yet. Thanks for letting me know--just went over and congratulated her! :)

    (And, as an A-Z Challenge participant, don't do that. We're all nervous as it is! LOL.)
