woo hoo!

on my life list is a book with my name on it. i had started something during my sabbatical and found the process VERY HARD. now, the muse is gone. kaput. clearly, you rule.

ya know, when i started reading you back forever ago, i had said:

a: you were the best writer in the blogsphere.
b: it was only a matter of time before you were in hardcover.

see. i'm always right.

Brad Lucid says:

Very cool. It's an odd thing for me because I didn't grow up with a father, but I AM one now... so I'm buying this book for a slightly different reason than the majority.

Looking forward to it.
