Got it, Deb, and comments sent. So excited! This is really really real, isn't it? Woooooo!
We're in love. We're ... lovers. We're lesbian, gay-type lovers.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
Deb, backflung. Sorry for taking so long. I'm excited too.
We've been having warmish weather, so if it's what I think it is, we'll be okay for a bit without.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
My husband is a sick twist.
He suggests I open the first paragraph ("well-travelled Deb") with:
Intimately experienced in the sordid fleshpots of a dozen ports...

Hee! I'm liking Nic more and more the more I hear about him (except for that coming home late on Avonex night stuff).

Actually, that's a kickass lead. GO with it.

I like it.

I like it too, though I might change it to "intimately acquainted with".

I'm quite serious. It's a grabber, it's funny, and it happens to be true.

Deena's right. Or "familiar with".
The only time I had to write an About The Author note, the editor asked me for one and I said "Oh, you mean the usual "She has two cats, one husband, and spent seven years in the French Foreign Legion" thing? Fine. Elizabeth Hanes Perry is a typical suburban matron living in the South with her husband and children."
Guess what I saw when I cracked the anthology to the back?
