Yay for all the sales! (Well, sad for me, but that just means another is on its way.) And congrats to you on your slush prowess!

Muchas gracias!

I was actually planning to email you for a Nell update yesterday! Looks like your end got to it first. It's my third pro sale, so I feel like I should be wearing Big Writer Pants today! :D

[douglascohen]

So I guess I get to wear my Big Editor Pants. :)

[wikdsushi]

Oh, hell, yes. :) Which begs the question: What do Big Editor Pants look like? I'm guessing coffee stains.

[douglascohen]

They're made entirely out of rejected manuscripts. Very eco-friendly. ;)

[douglascohen]

You're welcome. And congrats. I have an idea how hard you've worked for this.
