Bragging Rights
It's official. I've been published.
Yay me.
Yeah I know, you're curious. What, my brilliant pearls of wisdom appear in some fab magazine article or in hardcover? Why no, my little dumplings, THAT'S NOT IT. Though it used to be a dream of mine to have my writing appear in print it sorta kinda fizzled out.
When asked to submit a few of my photographs for possible inclusion in a desktop calendar/appointment book, I didn't really think anything would come of it. Then I received THE EMAIL. Whoopee! One of my photographs was selected and though I haven't seen it yet, it's there. So pardon me while I bask in a 30-second bit of blazing hot sunshine. It made my day. Hell, I could say it made my year. (Doesn't take much these days.)
YAY!
Cindy

Congratulations! Your photos are truly phenomenal and I'm so happy that you're getting published. Jealous, yes; but happy too.

Thanks Susan!
Joost - it's not sold in stores (online or otherwise) but there may be a way you can get one - though if I make a bird calendar for xmas presents maybe you'd want one of those instead - :-)

Well I am just so happy for you Cindy.
That is the most important :-)

Congrats! I hope you can tell us more once this rolls towards release.
Just last week, I picked up the latest Rolling Stone, and there was an article about the new Silicon Valley billionaires. One of them mentioned that with his new wealth he bought a $100 guitar amp. I know the guy - I sold him the guitar amp. Which is as close as I ever expect to get to the cover of Rolling Stone. :-)
May your fame and reputation prosper. Each of your photos conveys a perspective and vision that never ceases to inspire those of us with lesser visual imagination.

Steve - no votes, it's a done deal. :-) I'll be sure NOT to send you a bird calendar (IF I create one.) :P
RonW - it is similar to this one that I posted:

Mike - thank you. It has been released and I just don't have it, or any other info, in my hands as yet. (I'll have it soon.) Once I do I'll let you know the specifics.
Joost - thank you! *blush*
