Binnie is fantastic, isn't she? I wish NPR would hire her; she's as good as Teri Gross.
What was your name when you had Edward as a teacher? He doesn't remember "Grant"
Glad to connect!

Thanks, Caroline! Glad to connect here with you!

Yes, same here. I had some enthusiasm from a major CBA pub, but then sales and marketing said no. It's at a great house, a smaller house, right now---again, begun with an enthusiastic yes. Now waiting to hear from the people who have to keep the house afloat. This is positively the worst time to be selling a ms!! If this is a no, I'm going to sit on it and wait for the economy to strengthen. Cheers--let's keep the faith!!

Thanks, Caroline! Happy to see you, as well!

Caroline---how's the new book coming?? We're both on food books now, I think.

Hi Caroline. I picked you to welcome because you look exactly like my niece, Caroline, who lives across the country, and who I miss! I joined SheWrites yesterday at the invitation of some colleagues from the UCLA Writing Program. They're great women and great writers, so I figured it would be a great thing. I'm not familiar with Literary Mama, but I will go check it out. I'm the mom of two teenage girls, and life is full! Cheers, Jennie
