jajakenI got the most incredible package in the mail last night:
A shipment of my very first published, paperbound books! I can't even describe how exciting it was to open the box and hold them in my hands for the first time. Then to flip through the pages realizing that I wrote these words and it's all so very pretty. I had a couple of friends here who got all caught up in the moment with me. There were hugs all around, much squeeing, and all kinds of celebrating. ^_^
The books are absolutely gorgeous inside and out, so beyond my wildest expectations. FFP has done an amazing job with them. Just the thought of seeing them sitting on my bookshelf alongside my favorite authors at home is giving me a happy tingle. ^_^ I really can't wait to see what my other novels look like when they get printed as well.
There's info about the books on my website here. I can't believe how much holding these books in my hands makes me feel like an actual published author now, heh. I'm giddy with it. I must go write some more!
