The News

Today,

I PASSED MY THESIS DEFENSE!

I'd been told the defense was no big deal.  And...the defense was no big deal.  My professors talked more than I did, mostly, which was nice.  They gave me some really neat ideas for toying with a new revision next time I have to do one.  And now...for the first and possibly last time, I am sad about graduating.  Mostly because my professors have been SO AWESOME to work with...and now I'll be off on my own again.  But still, exciting things are happening.

Oh, and the book is going out to editors this week.  *squee*

Yay! Congratulations! I'm glad it was a good experience--and that it's now done and out of the way!

I'm so excited for your book's new journey! I hope it finds a home with a great publisher very soon. You're the best!

I may have gone a bit crazy with the exclamation marks. I blame the sleep deprivation--and the exciting news. :P

Congratulations! That's wonderful!

On an unrelated note, I'm wondering if there is a good time to stop by your place tomorrow and trade your books for the first Goblin book (if you're done with it.) I wanted to read it to the kids. And you could tell me details about the defense too. I'd love to hear.

We're done with the first two. Drew's in the middle of the third.

Tomorrow I'll be around in the evening...I should be home around five. Does that work for you?

That will work fine. I'll only be able to visit for about 30 minutes though. See you around 5!

Thanks. We need to chat! I feel like it's been forever, though I guess technically it's only been a month.

Congratulations!

I think you don't really start to regret graduating until you're listening to someone else talk about (or complain about) their current college experience.
