Woot!
I just had to share with you guys my awesome news. I recently attended the LDStorymakers Conference where they hold a first chapter contest every year. I entered the story I wrote for our class last year, Newtimber, and I won the GRAND PRIZE! How cool is that?
YOU SO TOTALLY DESERVE IT! That was a great first chapter. It had voice, it had style, it had personality. Besides that, things blew up and burned down! What fun.

Big time congratulations!
OK--so I have a blog for Petronella, the heroine of my book, and now it won't let me sign in as Dene, but it's really me.
Wonderful news, Karen! Way to go!
