So, it's happened.
It's official.
The first ever person to ask for my book at my bookshop has come. And asked. At my bookshop. Squee.
And my book isn't even out for another six months!!!
And, okay, okay, I know the woman was my former High School SOSE teacher, and I KNOW she asked for "the book by little Katie Lovell" (*maiden name*), and it WAS kind of embarrassing cos she asked my manager, and he didn't have a clue what the HECK she was on about, but still!!!
Word, at least in my teensy home town, has got around.
I am a writer. People are asking for my book. I think this may be the third or fourth happiest day of my life (after my wedding, the day I got an agent, and the days I found out I was getting published).
So, Derris Wood, hats off to you. You have just got your PhD at the age of 69; you are a teacher extraordinaire, and you are my first fan. Big, big love!
