Dear Lael


Since you are a follower and most likely reading, I thought I'd tell you how much I enjoyed our conversation yesterday. It was great to share a little of our hopes and dreams with one another, especially with them being similar.

I have known since my wee undergrad days that you are a great writer. So, to get quality tips and compliments from you just made my day and admittedly boosted my confidence levels just a tad! What were your words, 'clarity' and 'natural talent'? Thank you, you are too kind. I hope to achieve all the writing dreams I set out to reach in life. Just have to get past my hangups, and learn the tricks of the trade. Slightly intimidating.

I'm excited to receive a copy and read Lilly and the Russet Gigantus. Been looking forward to it since you posted a tidbit about it. Going out on a limp here, but I predict Lilly becoming the next Harry Potter. In honor of Leo's recent favorite word, that would be awesome! The story line captures my interest and sounds like a great combination of the natural world and mystery. Exciting sparkly stuff!
Thanks again. I think you are awesome. Wish we conversed more. Soon we'll talk more journalism, it peaks my interest!

  1. Well, thanks for the hail on your blog! What a treat! I love finding a fellow writer ... and one with a similar philosophy at that. I sure hope after reading my book, you will still think of me as talented ... a lot of bumps can creep in 120 pages.

  2. Lael, I understand bumps! I'm honored you will let me read it. I know it's not your completed work. I won't judge that. Sure it will be great!
