Oh, Deb, that's LOVELY news! I'm so pleased.
Does anybody mind if I pass out?

Because books.
Very good news, Deb! Spend some of that $132 on something fun.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
I just bought two big fat juicy steaks with it, and fresh asparagus.
I have reason to think the next royalty cheque - sometime in April or May - will be for just around $700. That's a nicer number.
But honestly, I'm just pleased as hell, and hopeful this is a yes on the path of getting them to buy the next three.

That's the ticket indeed. Fingers crossed for you. Did I tell you I asked the librarian at our local branch to order Famous Flower? And I'm putting a plug for it (and the series as a whole) on my web site, under Books I Love. (That sounds pompous, doesn't it -- I'm not sure anyone but my mom and my husband will actually visit the web site, but if someone else does...!)

Whoa.
I was so excited by the royalty cheque, I never looked at the rest of my mail. There's a note from Hannah Storm at the Early Show in there - I'd sent her both books as a thank-you.

Although, what I want is a cd with your favorite versions of the songs you've used or will use as book titles.
