I just read the excerpt and, holy cow, I can't wait to read more! Your post was wonderful - made me a little teary. ;0) The thing that strikes me the most is how, after 36 years, I still really crave - maybe even need - my parents' encouragment. Dang! After all this time, I still want them to be proud of me. I have a couple young writers in my house and do my best (even in the midst of reading rejection letters) to tell them they can do anything. :0) Thanks for the reminder of how important that is. Tiffany Jeannie,

I remember you as that very young girl and your very very sweet loving supportive mother. She loved you and believed in you. She always believed the best for you (and your brothers). I love you and I know for sure she would be overwhelmed with joy and love for you today. I know I am! With Love and BIG CONGRATULATIONS. Rene (smooch) Hi Sweet Jeannie
