Really, it never gets old to see my book in the bookstore. Kind of makes it all real, you know. My book right on the shelf next to other authors’ books whose last name begins with an A. Seeing it there… the photo, the title and my name. How cool is that? It’s almost as exciting as the day when I receive the first copy of my novel in the mail.  All that time spent writing, editing, creating and then to hold it in my hands…well there are no words that can satisfactorily describe the joy I feel in that moment, other than yay! and wow! and a huge smile on my face and in my heart.
