I DARE YOU NOT TO YAWN’s official release date isn’t until Tuesday (March 12th) but a friend just emailed to tell me she saw books were stocked at a few bookstores around town already. Lo and behold, after a quick Google session, there they are! Trickling in, getting stocked on shelves, saying hello to the world for the first time.
Hello. Here I am. Won’t you read me? Yawn.
As an author, this is both EXCITING and TERRIFYING. It’s almost like sending the chicklets off to their first day of kindergarten. On the one hand, you’re excited for this big step and feeling pretty pleased with yourself that you’ve made it that far, parenting-wise, without any major catastrophes despite a few bumps in the road.
On the other hand you wonder, will she be okay? Will she make friends? Will the teacher be nice? Will she know how to zip up her coat for recess???
Ah, the angst! But there comes a time when the little birdies must leave the nest, so FLY, be FREE, little book.
I hope you make some new friends.
