Wow. I'm excited for the potential conversations that can take place here. It's been quite the journey thus far, and still far from over, my friends. Ever since I started writing this, I couldn't wait for the day when I'd finally be able to release it into the wild. I don't think that's too bad of an analogy. I feel like the novel is its own living, breathing being. And why not? It's got both heart and soul and I'm curious how it'll react with others. And that's what I'm waiting for - those unbiased opinions...I want to hear them. But like any concerned parent, of course i worry, praying that it finds its way through the wilderness in one piece.
