As I tie up loose ends to my new book, the excitement mounts to the day that it will make its debut.
In the course of that excitement, I received some sad news. My first editor, Charli Coon, died earlier this week. She assisted with my first book, You Need Love Like I Do and partially with my new book.
Her death did not come as a surprise to some because she had battled poor health for some time. She and I became connected through my sister, working together through email, snail mail and once on the telephone.
Charli was a great asset and will be missed. Her death is a reminder of the importance to compliment and thank those who support us in our efforts, as often as possible.
May her spirit rest in peace-Amen.
