« a tiny little bit of wonderful news »
On the running trail. Photographed with Nikon D200, 35mm lens.
This week, after what seemed like a long time, I finally met with the publisher to whom I'd submitted the book proposal.
They would like to move forward with the book.
This was exactly the kind of push I needed out of the waiting game. Needless to say, I'm thrilled. Needless to say, I'm a bit intimidated. Needless to say, I have a lot of work to do.
While it's too soon to tell you everything, I will tell you that it will be a very visual book, but will certainly not be solely photography -- in fact, it will likely be equally heavy in words and images. All new words and images. So yes, like I might have mentioned: I have a lot of work to do.
So this is my tiny little bit of wonderful news. And there was no way I could keep this to myself, since each of you -- those of you who have commented over the years, or who have otherwise sent me e-mails and notes of encouragement -- are absolutely the reason I had the guts to even dream about becoming a writer and a photographer. So, thank you so much. I owe you guys big.

Yay! Congratulations, and I look forward to seeing what you produce. :)
Also, I just wanted to let you know--checking this blog in the morning is one of my favourite things. Amongst all the other things I read that tend to be about all that is wrong with the world, your posts are always so affirming, tranquil, and positive. So thanks for that.

Woo Hoo! Congratulations! All new words and images-- wow. How exciting, and challenging. I'm fairly certain you'll need a pair of new shoes, a new bag, and perhaps a new camera lens to properly embark on this project.
You go! So proud of you for following the path lead by your soul. Can't wait to hear more.
