Valentine from above!


Happy Valentine's Day to my blogging and facebook friends!! I just had to tell you about the sweet treat I received today! My heart is overflowing.

I mentioned that my second contract was on its way and I received it today, on Valentine's Day! But not only that, there was a small error in my other contract regarding my legal name and pen name, so I needed to re-sign the first contract. I received them both today in my email inbox and printed them off and signed them immediately. It was a double blessing to hold two contracts (one for each of my books) in my hands at the same time. I almost keeled over from the excitement! 


This was quite a special treat for me this Valentine's Day. I count it as a special gift from my Heavenly Father, the Lover of my Soul.  He sure knows how to romance this writer's heart.

To celebrate here's a little chocolate shaped like a book. I  hear chocolate is good for the heart. Oh, that's dark chocolate? Well, I know from personal experience that milk chocolate is just as good for any gal's heart! Enjoy!

Chocolate Book available in mass quantities at Choconet.

  6. Elaine, I did have to sign it twice, but then got a contract in my email for another sold book. I must admit, having them both in hand on Valentine's Day was perfect after all!! I couldn't have dreamed up a better scenario! Thanks for the congrats!
