Proud Papa
It is, after all, not unlike I have been saying, I thought, only in metaphor. To hold something in the hands so long imagined, embryonic and forming, now finally in the flesh--it is a bit overwhelming. And I am thankful. There are no obvious flaws, and I am proud. It is here, and I am happily sending off the first batch. If you've ordered, it should be heading your way very soon. I look forward to hearing what you think (I think.)

Having published a few stories myself in the past, I know exactly your feeling of opening a box and seeing the result of your labors. It IS an out-of-body experience! Can't wait to receive my copy. Congratulations, Fred.
