Today I signed a contract with Ambassador International for an alphabet book that germinated in my mind 45 years ago. It took that long to get all the wrinkles out of that pitiful first draft. LOL! The working title is Outside ABCs. Many thanks to people like Jon and Cathryn Sill who took the time to help me trim down my over-the-top first draft about 25 years ago, and to Crystal Bowman who encouraged and mentored me as we reworked many of the poems. I’ve also have many cheerleaders and critique groups who have encouraged me with this book.
Some of my prayer warrior friends came out on short notice to witness me signing the contract this morning.
