I don't understand when you were supposed to here from me?

I did not get your story draft.

Thank you so much for saying such lovely things! And that's great that you're reading so many memoirs, as, yes, I think this WILL help you decide how best to tell your own story. Keep me posted!

Hi, MiMi, thanks so much for ordering my book! That truly means a great deal to me. In terms of the University of Georgia Press, my first memoir was published with them because it won the AWP Award Series in creative nonfiction. By winning the contest, I received a cash award plus "automatic" publication with the Univ. of Georgia Press. And now, yes, I received royalties, just as with any publisher. I love the GA Press! They're wonderful. All best wishes to you with your writing! And, again, thanks so much for your interest in my story! Sue
