I found your blog through a link about your weight loss article. With one click I found myself delighted. I can't relate to the weight loss surgery thing as I haven't experienced it but your writing! OMG! It tickles my brain. It exercises my smile muscles. It is a pleasure. You are a wonderful writer. I believe you will have great success with whatever genre you choose. Congrats on completing your first book. I know how hard it is to finish the first one. I have been trying for 20 some odd years with 5 separate novels. You have another fan who looks to devour every word for entertainment and inspiration. I am enthralled. I found your blog through a link about your weight loss article.

It does seem like maybe you deserve at least one piece of confetti for every single one of those words you wrote down. Perhaps you should arrange that in advance, for when you finish the YA novel. A big red button to press, or something? Hopefully this deep and abiding love of writing will also nicely equal more blog posts, because I have very much missed hearing regularly from you (and I'm sure I'm not the only one).

That pretty sell sums it up. Congrats on finishing the first draft! I'm drinking a toast to you and tossing cyber-confetti at you from way over here in Oklahoma.
