A book takes quite a journey to publication: idea to synopsis to pitch to book proposal to book deal to submission deadline and rewrite deadline and another rewrite deadline and then (finally) the galleys.
All of this leads to today: Release day!
I had a lot of help and encouragement along the way — and I mentioned many of those people in the Acknowledgements section of Catch a Falling Star. But I have to say thank you one more time to my amazing husband and family for loving me and accepting me — writing quirks and imaginary people and deadlines and everything else that comes with this profession.
My friend and mentor, Rachel Hauck’s newest book, Once Upon a Prince, releases today too and I can’t wait to read it. I got to read a few scenes pre-publication and I loved this modern-day fairy tale!
My friend and agency mate, Heather Kopp’s book, Sober Mercies, also releases today. I am always challenged by Heather’s blog and I know her book will minister to and challenge many, many people.
