It's true and gracious that you identify all the many people who converge to create this meaningful launch. But you leave out yourself--an intrepid woman who believes in the story she has to tell and DOES it. Brava, Joan!
So much happens when we write a book. I call it fairy magic! We connect with people whom we have missed. I just met with my Grade 7-9 teacher, who always believed I'd be a wrier. Love this post, as usual!
And this is why we are all connected whether we realize it or not. Love how you can trace back the connections to so many people. I've been thinking about this alot lately. So happy to see 'Saving Vincent' out in the world finding more fans!!
I love your image of an interconnecting wake of waves following us through life. And thanks for the book rec on Jennifer Weiner's newest! It made me recall what a good writer she is, and how I've enjoyed some of her books in the past. I probably wouldn't have picked up her latest, based on the cover (shame on me), but now I'm going to go give it a look! One more little wavelet you just made there, Joan.
Heather, I agree with you about Jennifer Weiner's writing and the cover of her last book. And that's how I choose books, based on my friends' recommendations.

How great is that?!
What a lovely post! I often try to follow back how something has happened; your following was entrancing.
Loved this article. Been writing one myself about synchronicity - so obviously, I can relate.
Well deserved on the award Joan. Your book has wings and it's gonna go far!!!!

Glad to be connected to you :-)
And this is why we can't go back and change the past. We would have ended up somewhere different!
Maybe with Ryan Gosling?
Love seeing these beautiful moments happen for you! Cheers friend!
