You make me blush! Though that's what I get for such a tickets-on-myself post. I was giddy and couldn't help myself. Lizzy: Welcome! And thanks. You certainly got to witness a lot of the lead up. Thank you, supportogal! Jenny D: No way could I have written this book when I was wee. (Though the ten-year-old me wouldn't agree: "I can too write good! I can too!") CAAF: from now on I'm going to think of all the cool publishing news as plump-coin-purse moments. I loves it. Marrije: It isn't? Oh my God! Side note: how do you pronounce your name? I think of you as "Mary". Is that right? Dave: there are ten letters in Scott's surname and twelve in mine . . . What cool maths are you doing to make us tridecolagisms? Thanks, everyone.
