It wasn't crap.<br />AND she asked for a full. <br />Squeee! <br />That means she liked what she saw, and you know she has good taste. Huzzah!<br /><br />I'm crossing my fingers for you. Even as I (try to) stay out of the blogosphere to finish my revisions and catch up on critiques, I will be checking back often to see what happens. I'm pulling for you!<br />(Email me if you need to--it helps pass the time. Because you know she just got back and has to spend a lot of time catching up. It could be weeks.)<br /><br />Love,<br />LolaLola Sharphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14394765053485642935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107245040090735659.post-77650624613709212412010-05-12T09:14:02.647-06:002010-05-12T09:14:02.647-06:00Thanks for the hopeful encouragement!
