Thank You

I am speechless.

Holy cow.

I've known all along you guys are incredibly supportive and encouraging and kind and awesome and sweet and fabulous and thoughtful.

But I was still blown away by the response to my post on Friday.

To all of you who congratulated, left comments, linked to, tweeted, facebooked, and/or followed, my sincerest thanks go out to you. You made me giddy and teary a million times over. Being a writer is completely worth it, if only because I get to be in a community with people like you.

You all seriously rock my world in a way words can't even express.


I love you guys!
