Lily Wilson just posted this on the Nashville Writers Meetup site. The picture was taken in July at the Mystery, Suspense, and Thriller’s meeting. Shortly before going, I e-mailed the other members that I had a publishing contract for my debut novel, Just Another Termination. Either Kathleen Cosgrove or Lily created a crown in short order and brought it for me to wear. I returned it after the meeting as I understand the crowning may become a standard procedure for others with similar happy news.
I remember this day, we are all so proud of you
Thanks Kathleen. I look lackadaisical in the picture . . . probably in a kind of shock since I’d been looking for a publisher for so long. I don’t think it had hit me that I had one. It was a nice surprise to get the crown and attention. Thanks again.
