Wow, I remember reading that story when you posted the first draft on here, and it was already amazing! Congratulations! (And the cover is perfect, by the way.)

Thank you, Aemi! Yes, I remember that you encouraged me quite a bit regarding it, as did your younger sister when I met her! I'm glad you like the cover.

And thank you, Jeremiah.

You've helped me an awful lot on this project.

Yay! I can't wait until November 23! That is one "Black Friday" purchase I am willing to make.

Thank you!

Well, I ordered the proof today! So I hope that will arrive soon. I'll get to actually hold it in my hands.

Aragorn · **Joined:** September 23rd, 2010, 3:42 pm **Posts:** 9085

That means that soon we'll get to hold the book in our hands.

Wow.

I don't think I should bother with promotion, I'll just send you traipsing around the internet talking to people.

Thank you!

Jay's definitely going to be one of the first people I send this to. In a lot of ways that are hard to explain or even for me to understand... it has a lot to do with him.

Anybody want to help me out with my insanely ridiculous goal of getting 200 more views today?

If so, post this link anywhere you can think... Facebook, Twitter, Google+, random other places... there's no prize except my eternal gratitude. And lots of cookies.
