I di...I wish you a Newbery! What a wonderful story.<br />I did Nano too and ended up with a contemporary romance about two women in their sixties who time travel back to 1969. Soul Mate Publishing picked it up and Time and Forever was published as an eBook last week. I am still dancing.<br /> Every time I hear a success story like yours an angel inside me grows wings. I want to read Bird.

Going to have to buy the book today. <br /><br />Crystal, I love what you said about the opening image of your website. Such a respite from the rush for your readers. How lovely of you to offer them something they can sink into with a sigh, just as BIRD promises to be. I am so happy for you!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01338861539324326307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3934041490878801751.post-71318010142275071912014-02-03T07:46:40.759-06:002014-02-03T07:46:40.759-06:00I don't think it would be "legal" fo...I don't think it would be "legal" for me to enter the contest, but I wanted to say hi to the extremely talented Crystal! *waves* (The first time I heard her read her own work, my jaw dropped.
