it’s about bleedin’ time

The spring 2007 Avalon Publishing catalog came in the mail today. A fine day-maker this was. Especially after gruesome death-by-bibliography.
Years and years of writing and sex ed and activism work later, it’s a pretty cool thing to see this: up until now all the books I’ve been in have been anthologies or other people’s books in which I or my work was some part of the subject. I think I may have understimated the nice feeling of something just being mine-all-mine.
So, yeah: I’m a wee bit excited. Especially since this came minutes before I finally finished that damn biblio and sent the whole, honking 450 page manuscript (that note of it being 336 pages was serious wishful thinking) to the Grand Poobahs. Cocktails, ho!

How freakin’ cool is this?!!! I am so very happy and proud of you - plan on going to amazon to pre-order my copy (hoping this will make you some scratch, honey, in addition to being yet another positive mark in your karmic favor)
Long time no speak - miss you, and happy to hear you are flourishing!
Big news of my own? A baby Phillips is on the way in May! R. and I could not be more pleased

It’s fabulous to see your long-awaited, hard-won dream come true, Heather. Congratulations and all the best.

“Not marketable”. *grumble grumble* I think that’s a sad reflection on the general public, or how we/they(?)’re perceived
Oh, and congratulations
