sorry for the delay in responding to you...Hi, Margo<br />sorry for the delay in responding to your post. Your words brought back many great memories of when I held my first book in my hands for the first time. It was exactly how I felt when they placed my first baby in my arms. That little girl was as much wanted as the book.<br />thanks for making that all come back!<br />Kat DoranWild Women Authorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01471774846296178601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023937099212820339.post-78893223535458858402013-02-12T08:23:36.219-05:002013-02-12T08:23:36.219-05:00Writing certainly has its ups and downs, doesn'...Writing certainly has its ups and downs, doesn't it? It's important to remember the feelings we had when we finished that first manuscript, received that first contract, held that first book in our hands--that's helps get you through the tougher times. It's important to keep the joy in writing. I've read a number of the Class of '85 books and have marked the free days on my calendar to pick up a few more. And of course, I'm going to get To Be, or Not as soon as it's released.

The agony of trimming our baby and shaping it into something publishable is truly a memorable experience. Thanks for sharing your journey through the birth of your first!
