Thank you to the encouraging twenty-four (and one hundred & fifty four)

I don't always know the proper blog etiquette but I wanted to say a very very sincere thank you to the 24 people who have taken a leap of faith with me and now follow my blog.  It is so encouraging to a newbie like me that you are willing to go on this journey with me and wonder how it will turn out.

Initially when I got comments I wasn't sure how to respond, where to respond etc... I've decided that I will do my utmost to respond back to each comment.  (now that I've discovered the reply button - someone should have pointed that out to me previously !)

I also want to express my gratitude to the 154 or so people (some orgs) who follow me on Twitter.  I realize other twitter-ers have more followers but I have stressed quality over quantity!  I am proud of the people to whom I have been able to connect.  I look forward to hearing their insights and points of views.  They enrich my world beyond what I ever thought possible.

Now, let's get writing, eh?!

    You're welcome, Jo-Anne. As you know, since we met I've enjoyed your writing enormously and you have a confirmed fan here in Warsaw. Also, I don't think I actually thanked you for your review of Class Action. Please forgive me and don't force me to make a lot of lame excuses about being busy with work, kids, puppies, etc :-) But seriously, thank you for taking the time to post your review on Amazon and Goodreads. I do appreciate it (and you!) very much.
    Just don't stop doing what you're doing, okay? ;-)

    Thank YOU, Jo-Anne! You've been so encouraging over the past month with everything that I've posted. You have a wonderful way with words and I love reading what you write. I'm so glad we discovered each other! :)

      McKenzie, you are a bright bright light! Thank you for your kind words - I too am very glad indeed we discovered each other. I look forward to one day, standing in a bookstore, and telling people, "Yes, I knew McKenzie when she was just beginning her writing career"!

    You keep telling people that one of the things I tend to say is "you are made of awesome." The truth is, mostly I just say that to you. Because you are. I follow you because I know you and feel blessed to have you in my life, but even if I didn't know you from the next random Tweeter, I would have been captivated by your kindness, generosity of spirit, intelligence and wit. You, my dear, are everything that's right and wonderful about Twitter (and life in general).
