My editor called me this morning and woke me up. 

“Oh!” She said, “I forgot about the time difference!”

“That’s okay,” I mumbled.

“I just wanted to verify your address cuz your advanced copy is here and I’m putting it in the mail.”

Wooooo-hooooooo!

Suddenly I was wide awake.  It’s real? Is this a dream?

When I hung up I tried to go back to sleep but there was no hope of that.  I just sat in bed for another hour and a half with a shitty grin.  My advanced copy is en route, and in about eight weeks – it should be on shelves.

Aii! Congratulations, dahling!

Also, off topic, but you should go watch the video on my journal. It made me smile. NOTE: I’m not saying you should watch it because I think you’re “big,” because you’re not. I just think you would enjoy it. :)
