The proofs for my debut story collection arrived today via FedEx. I don’t think I actually believed this book was really happening until I saw the title page with my name on it. People: it’s totally real! It’s gotten far too elaborate to be a prank. This is definitely not a hoax. It really does look like my book’s actually going to exist in the world. I am humbled. I feel so blessed. And I better get to reviewing these proofs before they’re due back to the publisher!
In other news: the book I’m writing for Scholastic is coming along, so I’m rewarding myself by going to an improv show tonight at the invite of a new old friend. And yes, “new old friend” is very much accurate. Maybe it’ll get me and the husband writing funny stuff together again. If so, it’ll end up here, fo’ sheezy.
