I have this unbelievable, amazing friend who's funny and caring and smart and determined. And I can't imagine how my life would be without her. Three years ago we decided to start out on a trek together in writing. We took a class together, we started a writer's group, we attended conferences . . . and we wrote and wrote and wrote . . .
And I knew this day was coming. She trusted me not to say a thing even though it was bursting out of me in every way. But I did it, I kept my lips sealed until the day I could finally say:
My secret is: my FRIEND is going to be published.

ReplyDeleteI am such a dip. I've been by Peggy's blog at least twice today and left a comment...and when I read your post just now, did I even think for a minute you might be referring to her?? NO! But, in my defense, I didn't know you two were friends, either.
ReplyDeleteThat's so exciting for Peggy. It's good to have such good friends.
ReplyDeleteI didn't see this post yesterday, but I saw the PM announcement today and I thought, "hey, isn't that Erin's friend Peggy?" I was right! So awesome!!
