Enjoy all the thrills and tingles of the launch day! These lines resonated: "And I love the less than perfect ones, too. Even the mistakes are worth loving. We have to make them in order to get to the next place with our work."

There was a great (now anonymous) quote that I scratched down over 15 years ago about the need "to get certain stories out of the way." I've written four (published) books and definitely feel a freedom with each one--as though I've downloaded more content to a hard drive and can move on, again. Thanks for this post---looks like you have cute dog company to pull you on long, inspiring walks.
