My book exists in the physical world

[sabrinamari]

LATER EDIT: Oh my gods---I am holding my book in my hands!

It's an actual BOOK!

It's beautiful. My life is beautiful.

Have requested book from Library. They've been very good about getting books for me and THEN it is on the shelves and in the system for others to read.

[showingup.livejournal.com]

YES!!!

[ingridsummers.livejournal.com]

Congrats! I'm so happy for you.

[seedmoon.livejournal.com]

I have no words to express how proud and impressed by you I am.


And that was before the book came out.

[sabrinamari.livejournal.com]

Aw, you just love me. Lucky me!

[seedmoon.livejournal.com]

"Just" love you? Like that is a diminishing thing?

Darling, the fact that you are brilliant and accomplish wonderful things is part of the reason I love you so much.

Writing is hard. Taking a complex set of information & ideas and organizing & expressing them in a digestible form is very tough.
Getting that book written and publish is an impressive thing, my Sweet and that is yet another indicator of what an amazing, impressive woman you are.

Congrats! *happy dance*
This definitely calls for the turtle!

[radiant-one.livejournal.com]

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!

[sabrinamari.livejournal.com]

No, you're right. It is not a diminishing thing.

It is a privilege and a gift.

Thank you for this gift. I will never cease to appreciate it, love.
