This sounds like the experience of a life time.

I read about your debut novel in an email from Alabama Booksmith, and I'm always interested to hear about authors writing their first books--especially with young kids at home! I have two young girls and I write early in the mornings and at nap time. I'm looking forward to perusing your website and writings. I always try to glean inspiration where I can--anything to keep me plugging away at writing my own book. Best of luck to you!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08533984290167199901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7254076554734469828.post-69062797965521016662013-07-03T13:01:22.725-05:002013-07-03T13:01:22.725-05:00Thank you, Allison!

Thanks for including the names of all the Nerdy Book Club members who were in attendance. So happy all of you could meet in person. Don't worry about the "long version": I thoroughly enjoyed your thorough report! :)<br />@azajacksAllison Jacksonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7254076554734469828.post-74851499758514977452013-07-02T19:13:17.902-05:002013-07-02T19:13:17.902-05:00Thank you, Beth!
