An unexpected bonus

Today I talked about the first two chapters of Tapestry Threads with our author-in-residence Nancy Willard. Not only did she both love the story and give me some great feed back, she also gave me some good information about tapestries because (get this) she teaches a course on tapestries! Talk about a lucky coincidence! We also talked about

Whee! Serendipity! :)

It really was. She's a wonderful resource for critiques, and now an expert to consult too! :)

Nancy gives great feedback! I remember her from her last trip- she was more helpful than the other writers I've talked to... Glad your talk helped! Love the falconer idea/image.

She really was. I think she's one of the best they have, which is probably why she comes back every so often. :)

And the falcon idea is so perfect for the story! I'm not crazy about my villain being so one-dimensional, so this is a perfect hobby for him.
