I Am Happy Today Because . . .

I got a congratulatory e mail from my editor--my second book is doing much better under the new publisher, apparently. I have no idea how check Amazon stuff, so I'll take her word for it HAHA! I don't do the "anything other than the writing part of being a writer" thing very well.

Wouldn't go so far as to say "happy," but I am grateful for something today for the first time in forever. The guy who does my hair asked my mom earlier this month (I bought her a salon service for her birthday) if I would be willing to be in a hair show at the salon. I told her it was really nice that he asked, which she passed on and somehow it was translated as a "yes." He texted me last week and told me he was excited for me to be a part of the event-I felt it was too late to back out. I have SEVERE social anxiety and things like this are next to impossible for me. I went in today for the service-he colored my hair and put red and yellow extensions in (CRAZY-but it's free!). I asked him how much it would cost to have this done if I was to pay for it-he said over $400!!! Holy wow-he told me he picked me because he knew I would appreciate it. The show's on Thursday night and I am soooooo nervous-wish me luck!

The zombie anthology is out! And the cover art is very cool. And my name is on the front (along with the other contributors' names, natch).

I got some feedback on a job interview I went to yesterday. I am the front runner! It would be so cool to work for this guy; he's the smartest cat I've met in a looong time—and seemed thoroughly decent.

Yay you! I'm proud of you for going through the first step... you will be just fine. (pretend to 'be' the person who would normally wear her hair like that, maybe this will help you?)
I would love to see a photo of your hair, if you would feel okay with that? (P.M? You don't have to... it just sounds really cool.)
