This weekend I got one of the best emails I’ve gotten in a very, very long time. Outside of those that helped me write, Sarah was the first person that read my non-novel and sent me her reaction. And ya’ll, it was good. Yes, there is a list of things that need work but I knew that. It really didn’t get me down at all because these few sentences made my day:
I loved it, I really, really loved it.
I think it’s really wonderful. I cared not only about Sam, but about Dominic, about Beth, about all the peripheral characters. You made them interesting and real. And I forgot that I was reading something that you wrote – it just flowed and drew me in. I really, really loved it.
*squeee*
Thank you, Sarah!!!
Aw! I’m floored that it meant so much to you. And I meant it – it was a wonderful read and I just hope I get to read it again – in the hardcover version!!

Amy, I’m really anticipating seeing this thing full-fledge! The bits and pieces that you put on your blog were very entertaining and I’m anxious to see the entire plot line unfold.
Keep us posted on the process!
