As I stumbled through the house this morning in an effort to get to the office to make the executive decision of coffee or no coffee, I really wasn't expecting to find anything exciting in my email - that'll teach me.

After spending a week making corrections to my manuscript and the last two nights of my deadline staying up into the early morning hours, I was finally able to press 'send' and give it back to my rep at the publisher's. So of course I wasn't expecting to hear anything from them for awhile - that'll teach me.

This morning I opened my email and there it was... my galley for The Rain Song. I couldn't believe it. In fact I sat and stared at the email before I was finally able to figure out that the link I was pressing was as straightforward as I thought and therefore had to remember my login and password. Uh, I did mention this was precoffee... right? So I finally was able to pull it up and... wow! What a thrill to actually see it in printer format!!!

So, as I prepare myself for the rest of the day, I know that even though I have a week to go over it again to make sure the spacing and whatnot is correct, it won't take me that long and could in fact have it done by the end of the week if not the end of today.

Today my wish is this - That everyone is able to fulfill their dream... no matter what it may be.
