Celebrate the Small Things is a weekly celebration created by VikLit and now hosted by Lexa Cain to celebrate the happenings of the week, however small or large. You can learn all about it and sign up for it here.
I know it’s been awhile since I posted. I’ve been spending every free minute on my edits, and today I’m happy to say, I’m FINALLY done. It’s time to celebrate! Whoo hoo!!
Book 2 is a big step closer to reality. Unfortunately, it didn’t leave me any time to prepare for A to Z, so I’m going to have to bow out this year. I’ll be around to visit, though. I’m looking forward to seeing all the interesting topics everyone has come up with.
Can’t wait to see Book 2 in print! So far, I’m on target for May. Fingers crossed!
What other celebrations are going on out there?

Thanks, Alex. No, I never did sign up. I kept hoping I’d have the time, but too many things kept coming up. Getting my edits done took top priority. But I still have my topic idea, so I can work toward next year!

Well done! I’m not A to Z-ing either this year. I had an idea but didn’t have enough for all the letters and no time to research. That could be a small celebration – too busy with other interesting things!

Congrats! That’s such a milestone, and SO worth celebrating–happy dance is a must. I’m skipping out of A-Z this year too but eager to see what others post. Always so interesting.

Lori, you get a pass on the #AprilA2Z challenge this year BUT let’s not make a habit of it! Well, if you’re cranking out new stories then that’s ok. I understand how important it is to see something you’re passionate about coming to fruition long last. You’re invited to pop in on to read any of my A2Z posts this month!
