I'm super grateful for all the brilliant, creative, generous,
supportive book-making folks I know.
I just came home from Austin's annual SCBWI holiday shin-dig,
and you wanna talk about a room full of friends?
Seriously.
As Mr. Slinger would say, "Wow."

I'm pretty sure I would've quit this work in misery or hysteria about 20 times by now if it wasn't for this amazing (and amazingly good-humored) community. And I'm grateful for every single one of them…
