Yes, it really is coming . . .



I've told some of you that some of my poetry will be out in a book from Deseret Book. I originally thought it was coming out for Mother's Day, but in actuality the DB people had it targeted for the "Time Out for Women" thing-y that they do around General Conference time. (Still, it would be a great Mother's Day gift for next year, right?) Anyway, we have a cover and here it is. I think it will be fantastic, because the Segullah women who have contributed to it are fantastic thinkers and women (and mothers, too). But I haven't read it all yet--I'm saving that experience for when it comes out! This will be my first time being published in a real book (rather than magazines). Hurrah!

*sigh* Another one to go on my list. Deseret Book is going to bleed me dry LOL!

Congrats on the book!
