Contract in the mail !

I no longer have to remain cool as a cucumber - considering that it's 113 degrees Fahrenheit, here in Hyderabad, it required quite an effort. I can jump, do cartwheels - well, maybe not - and kiss everyone around. I received my signed copy of the contract in the mail, today. I wonder if we are all like that. Worrying constantly that something will happen to make the publisher change their mind. I was. Now, I can safely start worrying about something else. Considering my extended proficiency in that area, I don't expect it will take me more than an hour or so to come up with something new :)

Well, thanks to you, Rilla. It would have taken me another two hundred years to figure out the whole post-a-picture thing. Thanks.

Congratulations, Katia! Thanks for sharing this very exciting news. Great picture -- it's nice to be able to put a face to a name. i can't seem to load my picture on to blogspot for some reason. Anyway, I have now also entered the blogosphere (www.natashayim.blogspot.com) and my website just went live today. Check it out at www.natashayim.com
