LOL :) If I get within an hour or so of Atlanta, I will let you know, ok? Thanks again for your kind words :)Mayden' s Voyagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03169575773884459343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21103988.post-1151261800260599082006-06-25T13:56:00.000-05:002006-06-25T13:56:00.000-05:00I don't know how it's possible to love so many tha...I don't know how it's possible to love so many that I've never laid eyes on...but my little heart could just burst over you! Thank you for your kind words. <BR/><BR/>The beginning of the week was rough, but things went smoothly- as you can see :) I wrote in my journal that this week was "...the most self-rewarding thing I have ever done for myself". And it was :)<BR/><BR/>Malinda- consider me inspired! I have some great ideas- and great motivation to press forward.<BR/><BR/>Lee- Thank you :)<BR/><BR/>Anteros- Thank you as well. I need to get over to VOA. I tried to leave you a note, but it got too sappy and I deleted it! LOL :)<BR/>You should look into a writers group in your area- I think you'd enjoy it and the people will benefit from what you have to say.<BR/><BR/>SJ- Thank you :) I need to catch up on your journey. I love the way you describe things, and your insights from such a different place than where I am.<BR/><BR/>Schaumi- Thank you :) How are things with you? I read about the "hole in the wall"--yikes. I know it's busy with the sale of the house. You are in my thoughts.<BR/><BR/>X~ Honestly- I could/ would give you a smooch! :) Forget a cyber hug! :) <BR/>I promise to let you know how the 1st book goes. I have some editing to do- just a little, and then a publisher to find. Funny how all of this seemed insurmountable when I left, and now it's just a matter of time and details. (and Query letters!)<BR/><BR/>JCN- LOL! I will ever be a blogger- but if you see my name on anything- please read it :) I PROMISE to do the same for you :)<BR/><BR/>Lux~ The only way my week could have been better- seriously, is if you could have joined me. Thank you for the joy you spread...and for your friendship, and for being so happy for me. I hope you are feeling better. I promise to visit your blog soon. <BR/><BR/>Princess- it is an honor to be greeted to kindly by you :) Thank you- sincerely :)Mayden' s Voyagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03169575773884459343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21103988.post-1151234348489868282006-06-25T06:19:00.000-05:002006-06-25T06:19:00.000-05:00I am being of a mind to be echoing the sentiments ...I am being of a mind to be echoing the sentiments of the voluable Lady Luxlucisvita but I am royally bound to be not leaping about is such a manner as it is unbecoming of a Princess.

Is there any chance of publication? I'd love to buy your book for my nephews.<BR/><BR/>I would say congratulations, but I don't want to come off as sounding surprised that someone other than me (or the rest of us for that matter) likes your writing. <BR/><BR/>Nevertheless, congratulations. We're all proud of you.X.
