After raising two delightful and accomplished kids, staying happily married for 47 years, and finishing up with a job I really enjoyed, I felt like I'd pretty much done what I'd like to have done with my life and never bothered to make a formal list of life goals.
Then I went to the library the other day and on a whim, headed to the shelf with all the Ds.
Being a best-selling author would be great, not that I'll ever really find out, but somehow this felt bigger.
I guess I did have a bucket list after all.
Oh my goodness! That must have been a wonderful feeling. Seeing your book there even made me a little proud. I own one! and enjoyed reading it. :) I want to read your latest book, "Well Murdered", and plan to do just that.
ReplyDeleteHenny, if there were a list somewhere of the nicest bloggers, you'd be in the top ten!
DeleteCool! It's always gratifying to see your own work publicly available, isn't it? By the way, "Stiltsville," which is right next to your book, is a GREAT read. I loved it.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Steve! I'll try it.
DeleteWonderful news. That must have felt INCREDIBLE.
ReplyDeleteThat is pretty special. Congrats, Author.
ReplyDeletethat would certainly thrill me.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on having your books on the library shelves.
ReplyDeleteThat would make me proud too. I wonder if it's on Library shelves here in Australia?
ReplyDeleteOH my goodness,no River! It's just here in our town library because I'm a local writer!
DeleteI'm a small frog in a very small pond.
How lovely! I worked in publishing but am one of those people who has never really wanted to write a book. I know how much work it is! Congratulations to you for having written it. So cool. :-)
ReplyDelete:) :) Way to go!
