After some minor controversy, Firefly & Wisp is going thru some changes. Changes that probably should have happened sooner but of course the old adage "don't fix it if it ain't broke" rings a bell. Well perhaps there were things that were broken and now that these issues are known, the owner has began to envision a whole new FF&W. And that can only mean good things for all of us. Especially the authors! New editorial staff & marketing staff have been brought in. A brand new website is being developed and something really cool for our fans. I'm not at liberty to tell what it is at this moment but I will have it featured here on the front page as soon as the announcement is made. So even tho last week scared me with the things that happened, this week has given me so many reasons to be proud of the company that I'm a part of. And I'm truly excited to see where we will all be this time next year.
Until next time, read something that makes you happy. And have an awesome week!

HOLY COW! The last 24 hours have been as surreal as anything a writer can imagine. I woke up late because I stayed awake reading "Fifty Shades of Grey" until after 2am. Pretty much the first thing I do is roll over and grabbed my cell and see what has happened in the world in the 6 or so hours that I've been in la la land. I always check text first because that's the important stuff that can't wait on email. I see a msg from Lisa and click it. I only see (mostly b/c I don't have my reading glasses on and I still have sleepy eyes) "Thought you may like seeing this page :) makes it a little more real... http://www.fireflyandwisp.com/Authors.html
Well I only saw the firefly and wisp part and kinda got excited. The link carries me to the publishers page and when I glance down the list I see my name. Since my son was born and I met Bob I have honestly not had a moment that I was so happy that I couldn't breathe. My name on a publishers website under the heading AUTHORS.
Even as I type this I'm getting emotional. I've wanted this for a long time. And until six months ago other than my girlfriends nagging me to finish the book so they could read it, I haven't had anyone that pushed me to finish. Bob did that for me. When we talked about it he would always say "get after it!, what are you waiting for?" He believed it in me as my partner, friend, lover and confidant. So I am dedicating my independence day to him. For believing in me and always being on my side. Thanks babe! I love you.
