Tuesday Twaddle - Baby Steps

The emotional roller coaster that is getting a book published never ceases to amaze me.  I got my box of ARCs last week and I was so excited that I practically assaulted the poor UPS man, and I dare say he'll think twice about delivering items to the girl who meets him at the door with a giant smile and an iPhone recording his arrival.  I saw the look of sheer terror in his eye and he turned to flee, poor fella, how could he have know that box he carried so leisurely contained my precious babies.

Yes, I ripped open the box and delighted in the arrival of my book. Yes!! MY BOOK!!!

It was with great trepidation that I sent my babies off into the world to shuffle their first awkward steps towards their dreams... my dreams.  But shuffle they did, and they found their way into the hands of some amazing people.  Now the reviews are starting to come in.  I've been sitting biting my nails at my laptop, waiting to pounce on any morsel of feedback.  I'm both terrified and excited to hear what people have to say.  It's like going to your child's first parent / teacher conference.  You're gasping to hear that your child is well rounded, pleasant, outgoing, and shows all the signs of being a prodigy.  But then, your sort of expecting hear, she's a dear child, but really, she could try harder.

Aghhhh! The reviews are starting to trickle in, and the signs are good... VERY good.  Watch this space!

Oh and while I'm on, I've posted my author tracker in the side bar.  I'd love if you could sign up for it.  If you do you'll be one of the first to hear all the exciting news and info on competitions or events. So go for it!!

Until next time.
