And it gets better…

I think this conference has now morphed into the surreal. I met this morning with an agent and accepted an offer of representation. It sounds so strange to think of it, having an agent now.

I am thrilled at everything that’s going on, and am a bit shell-shocked at all that’s happened. To put it mildly!!

You know how you wait and hope and dream for something all your life? You work toward it, hang in there through the low spots, and then persevere with the hope that it will all come out right? I think I’ve gone past the euphoria moment and am now feeling a little intimidated. I didn’t expect so much to happen all at once, you know?

In any case, here are a few more photos to enjoy. Thanks to everyone for their support and for keeping me going!
Here are two of my best friends, Suzanne and Kacey. Best friends
Next, here are LaShon, Jena, and Suzanne: Lashon and Jena

And last, here are Lori and Suzanne, a photo from last night: Lori
