Contract

Well, it's arrived. I've been waiting for it because this makes this whole business of having my series published real. It couldn't have arrived on a better day since my kids decided to take a good half hour to argue over particle board. It seems that my series will be bigger that I ever imagined and I can't wait to work on it. If anyone can offer to send me a sound proof room, let me know and I'll give you my address. ;-) I have a lot of thinking to do and I don't do well with distractions. I am even excited about the book signings and I'm a very shy person. I think I'm excited because Tiffany will be with me holding my hand the whole way. So with the arrival of this contract comes a whole bunch of jumbled nerves. I feel sick and excited at the same time. As willing as I am to work my rear end off, I still have that fear of not being able to fulfill my end of the deal. I know it's my lack of self confidence speaking, but once it's signed, I have to do it!

So for the other authors out there who have signed the ever so important contract, did you have some of the same feelings? As excited as I am, I'm scared to death to fail.

Wow! Congratulations! I've never had a book contract (or published a book for that matter), but I'm so excited for you! Congrats!
