Hi
guys I am walking on air! Okay from a wheelchair I suppose I am
rolling on air! Lol I am so elated at how well the publishing meeting
went today!
I
cooked (with Sarah's help) BBQ chicken, fruit salad, spinach salad,
homemade stuffing (not a victory lol) hor dourves, berry pie and my
specialty cake. I had tried to make it look elegant and my daughter
did an excellent job setting up! How would I live without her?
I
was so nervous... like anxiety attack nervous. What if? What if I got
humiliated? What if I looked like an idiot? What if the editor ended
up hating me? What if I forgot how to act like a pro? What if I was
offensive or...? What if?
That
What if will kill us... worrying about things that have never
happened, means chasing invisible monsters. Why borrow trouble? I
made myself a nervous wreck for nothing. You know what the worst part
of the day was? NOTHING!
I
had the most perfect time!!!!!!!! We got a lot done. My contract is
signed... not for six months or a year as most places have
standard... but (drum-roll please) 2 YEARS!!!!!!!! The main editor
and very talented illustrator even said... wait for it.... “OMG!
She's a publicist!” I think that's the highest compliment ever.
With
all the praise reaped on me today my ego should be about the size of
a small continent now! LOL They really were just the loveliest ladies
and the kind words they said about my book really touched my heart
too! I had a total blast today! I am so happy right now... it's a Zen
moment!
That's
my side of it,
Angel
