It's in my hands...arrived today!

I mentioned earlier that I finished editing a rather large fantasy novel for another writer. UPS just dropped off a copy to me. The novel has been published, through an organization, for the writer. I spent months on this puppy. I put my own novel aside to reach the deadline for this one. Today I have an overwhelming sense of accomplishment for all the hard work I put into this book. 536 pages! (And that's the edited down size.) The reward is knowing that somewhere out there, the author is also holding his copy today! For him, it was a long battle. For me, it was a wonderful experience I am thankful and thrilled to have been a part of.

Thank you all. You're very kind.

Yes, Maryn, yes! It's real now. The weight is real. I am so proud of Brendan. I could never have accomplished something like this at his age! Never!


I would be remiss if I didn't thank AW and Jenna for giving me the opportunity to do this. Jenna posted Brendan's request for an editor here at AW. Thank you for giving me this gift.

Thank you all for the kind words.

Thanks guys...it turns out it was a great day to receive Brendan's book. The right day to receive it. Thank you.
