I don’t know that much about contracts and this is a long one, ten pages…seven years. Husband was talking to his cousin about my scattered thoughts and come to find out they have another cousin that lives in northern PA that is a lawyer. After a few phone calls we connected and she asked me to fax the contract. She was excited about the possibility of having a published author in the “family.” She is doing some law searching about the publishing company and regulations concerning the use of quotes.
It is out of my hands…I am not goggling anymore and my mind is at peace. But…I am still very excited. Once again I find myself cautiously optimistic.
I went to writers group and the leader of this unruly pack is familiar with the publishing company and writers contracts…she said the one they offered me would take her about one minute to sign…she said it was a wonderful offer. I hope the lawyer has the same awesome news that flew through our group meeting.
It has been a hectic week but I did manage to slide in some fun times. Today is an inside day of relaxation. It is a call for winter, wind howling and snow flying.
Yesterday I worked, did laundry and got my hair cut. It is shorter than I can ever recall having it. I said, “Shoulder length.” it is a short shag kind of cut. I wondered who looked back at me from the mirror this morning. It is fine with me I needed more change…just haven’t had enough lately.
Tomorrow I am making the 100 mile trip further north to visit my son…not cold enough here. He sent me a letter and told me he missed me…smile…I miss him too.
