Today started off in typical Saturday fashion. Laundry, cleaning, & attempting to get some embroidery done for a friend. The change in weather threw in a twist today; rearranging my closet from the dozens of pairs of shorts & Capris that I don’t wear to the dozens of pairs of pants & jeans that I don’t wear. Rotate shirts with sweaters, say bye bye to cute sandals – helllooooooo boots!
Even through all the different tasks, there is always time for e-mail. I was more than thrilled to see a letter from my publisher this morning! She sent me the ISBN # (International Standard Book Number – not “I’m selling books now”, thank you, Wayne 
) for Dustin Time. *faints* It may be a small thing, but it’s one more step in the realization that this is really happening. I also need to work on taglines & cover blurbs which, believe it or not, is harder than writing the novel itself! My writer friends will agree with this.
So…my writer friends. A word of warning: One you get your query perfected, once you get your synopsis done, once you get your agent or publisher, congrats! But wait…there’s more! It’s the industries way of keeping us on our toes or saying “Hey you – yes you. Get the heck off facebook & get busy!” 
I’m a barcode! wOOt me! 
*gets off blog to go get busy*
That’s very cool, AB. Congrats! Looks like plenty of Captain’s in Chi-town.
I’m sure it’s a great feeling after all your hard work.
Spanks. It did really help it sink in… and okay, if you say so
Yes…next month in Chicago will be quite the celebration.
And just think how many awesome blurbs and taglines we’ll be able to come up with for you when we’re loaded up on Captain!
^^^ Oooh, I can’t wait to hear the ideas that come out of that meeting!
Congratulations!!
Wish you could come with us. *sniff*
