Putputt, no one deserves this more than you!! *sobs*
You are amazing and you have always been the person who we KNEW would hit it someday, and gawd was it frustrating to watch publishing consistently fail to recognize how clearly awesome you are, aaaaaaaaaa like I would have plunged my head into a barrel of mackerel and never come back up. But I'm so glad you didn't and that you kept going and eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!
I can't wait to hold your book in my hands. I shall giggle over it creepily and enshrine it on my friend shelf with such obsessive honor that when you get murdered the cops will suspect me. (That was a compliment. I might be bad at compliments.)
