Just a few tidbits on this lovely, wet Monday:
My first cover story was published! Pretty exciting stuff. I'm posting a picture of the cover for all to see. Forgive my lack of humility. It's a career milestone.
One of my oldest friends, Julie Schmidler, who used to drive me around in her rockin' blue Mazda 626, had a baby on Friday. Her name is Kate and she weighed a whopping 10 pounds at birth! Congratulations Julie, Ray and the extended family!
My son has decided he wants to be a spy for Halloween. I welcome any costume suggestions anyone might have. I'm at a loss.
Hi, forgive my late arrival, i just got here. Now I'm all caught up with your archives I can join in!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your cover - seems only a few hours ago I was reading about that first rotten rejection slip (Oh wait, it was just a few hours ago!)
As regards your son - couldn't you point him the direction of Inspector Gadget - well, he's sort of a spy right? That's all I have, sorry!
black fedora, cape? Or am I thinking of a detective?
ReplyDeleteThe problem with spies is that they have to look like ordinary people, but with a shoe phone.
How about a big white chef's hat and a nice apron, no, wait, that's Julia Child. Congrat's on the Cover Job!!!!! U be Rockin' an stuf.

Congrats on the cover!!!
Congrats again! I know you're floating on a cloud. You're on your way, girl, enjoy the ride.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I don't usually dress up when I spy, so I have no idea about a costume.

Hey! I noticed your byline when I read my copy earlier this week. Congratulations - it was a very good article (Tim's one of my firm's clients - gotta love him and his myriad of wines). Bask in the glory...you are a published (cover) writer!!!
ReplyDelete(and your vacation story was good, too!)
ReplyDeleteYYYYAAYYYY!!!
