We're Going to Committee!
Yesterday, I emailed my editor to ask for an update on Teaching Special Spirits. This morning, I received her reply.
You know that feeling you get when you're waiting for something, but you're not sure what will be inside? I sucked in a great big breath, and clicked to open the email.
And almost fainted.
Apparently my email was timed quite well, because all the reader evaluations are back and Teaching Special Spirits is going to be discussed at Wednesday's committee meeting. My wonderful editor said she'd email me back by Thursday with their decision.
I'm so excited and anxious, I feel like I'm walking on pins and needles. I calm down, only to randomly burst into laughter or squealy giggles. Yep, I did say squealy.
I'm happy Lynn and I have finally reached this point. She and I talked on the phone about our hopes for this book. We know it's truly needed for families, church leaders, and individuals with special needs. It's been an incredible experience writing it. There were many bumps through the four year journey that's brought us to this point. There have also been many blessings and inspiration from Heavenly Father. I'm sure tomorrow, Lynn & I will be checking our email in 30 minute intervals . . . and calling each other throughout the day.
And of course, we hope that late Wednesday or Thursday finds us doing a very happy, giggly dance!
Would you like to comment?

If you get good news I'll do the giggle dance with you! If not, well...it won't be bad news, so I won't even worry about it.
Good luck! I can't wait to see it in print.
