I recently published a book with the same Publisher. When you were having difficulties I wish I could have helped. Don't wait too long before you begin your next book. It is very easy to forget all of the different steps. <br />Because I also write a blog I Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03429484235583035595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7008662464580606671.post-12862148635903872312014-11-03T14:32:39.611-08:002014-11-03T14:32:39.611-08:00Can't wait to read it!

I downloaded it right away this morning, however my challenge for today is NOT letting myself even peek at it while i'm supposed to be working. I work from my design studio at home, and the temptation to drift from a client project (for just a minute!) is often there... Looking forward to the Christmas book, too!<br />CatherineCatherinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7008662464580606671.post-6464822590869877322014-11-03T08:26:47.753-08:002014-11-03T08:26:47.753-08:00What a fantastic Monday morning surprise!
