Feel free to call me up whenever you want to hit up a cafe. I have a bit of work left as well and, as it turns out, being in the presence of a pro is inspiring :) You are a rockstar!

I'm so amazed by and proud of you. You're an inspiration. You got me to do NaNo, and no I didn't win this year, but I will someday, in some way, partly because I know you, and you encourage me so much. "The funny thing is I’m not nervous about querying so much as nervous about what happens when (“when” because, recall, I am cheekily optimistic) it all happens. When this amorphous agent wants me as a client, when they sell my book to a publisher…. I’m nervous about being a real grown up. Not about being a writer — I’ve been a writer since I was twelve, for goodness’ sake; I have a degree in writing! — but about being a real freaking grown up." Ditto. Ditto. Ditto. WAAAAHOOOO!
