Validation

   I think most of us are subject to some of that "Imposter Syndrome" nonsense that our egos try to taint our accomplishments with. I'm bouncing between that and gratitude for the gift of words given to me. I've also been gifted with inspiring stories about my family, which led me to this journey. It was hard work getting Omie's Well finished, edited and printed. I certainly can pat myslf on the back for that. Whew! What a learning curve! About technical stuff I don't have much patience with!
   I'm still in love with the characters in Omie's Well and continue their lives in "The Deer Stone", which I hope to have done by  spring. A couple of new characters have been tapping at the door, also.
   September 21st is the awards dinner. Whether I win or not, the exposure will be great. I'll tell you all about it!
   Thanks so much for your support.
