So... the article about my "part time" blogging career ran in the local paper today! It doesn't seem to be online yet, so this is the best I can do for now. Thanks to Patti Ahern of the Southtown Star, and my wonderful readers for your continued support!

That's awesome! What a big accomplishment when you haven't been blogging or that long :)

Thanks so much, Ruth. The article was stuck in between advertisements for house siding, retirement homes, and cemetery plots, but I'll take whatever I get.
DeleteAppreciate the kind words!
Vicki

Delete¡Muchas gracias!
Fue divertido ver mi entrevista y fotos en la prensa. Ahora ... si un editor o editor, verían el artículo y decidir que me a un contrato con Random House deben firmar de inmediato que sería una niña feliz!
Gracias por el apoyo. Nos vemos el sábado con un nuevo capítulo.

Mari
Thanks so much!
It was fun to see my interview and photo in print. Now...if only an editor, or publisher, would see the article and decide they must immediately sign me to a contract with Random House I'd be one happy girl!
Thanks for the support. See you on Saturday with a new chapter.
Vicki
Huzzah! Maybe now you can begin work on The Great American Block Party. ;)
ReplyDeleteAnd remember, bb, your 2 seconds are more than I will ever have! :) Enjoy it! Waiting for the eversion.
As always,

My dear, dear B,
DeleteI blinked...and the two seconds were over! LOL Thank you for your support, and for allowing me to talk as if my characters are real people without deciding I'm nuts.
Special hugs for the lovely quote in the article. I don't know if you can see it on the small photo, but they used yours to close the piece. I will send you a PDF.
Kisses,
VR
Congratulations Vicki :) I am very happy for you. Enjoy your fame :)

Hi Maria!
DeleteThanks Maria. It is because of you, and all the other wonderful people around the globe, who spend their precious time coming back each week to read my humble literary endeavor. I am gratified, and truly blessed, that so many of you enjoy what I put out each week.
God Bless,
Vicki
Awesome! Well deserved honey, wonderful read here ;)
ReplyDeleteSo nice of you to say Jane, and much appreciated!
DeleteI love these characters, and am thrilled to know that other people are fond of them as well. Great stuff coming up as I work like crazy to get Beckett and Maureen to the altar. Will they make it?
I'm not telling... LOL
Enjoy the rest of the week! New chapter on Saturday!
Vicki
That is some article! I can't wait to read it. Mine is just a little biddy snippet next to yours! That is so cool!! Please let me know when it's online. I'm just dying to read it.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! Now many more people can get mad at Beckett. LOL!
hugs♥,
Caroline
Thanks Caroline!
DeleteBut yours is in THE New York Times! The NYT trumps the Southtown Star any day...LOL I hope it ends up on line. Sometimes the human interest stories don't. But I have it in a PDF format I can send you if you're really interested.
And Beckett...well.. he's quite a character. Somedays I love him, other days he's a total jerk. Sort of like real males. LOL He sure is hottie, though, and loads of fun to create.
Thanks for the support!
Vicki
That is pretty exciting!! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteHi Audra!

Vicki

DeleteWhat a nice thing to say! I truly hope you are enjoying my little story. Be sure to come back Saturday...have a good chapter in the works.

Vicki
Very cool and well deserved! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteHi Micaela,
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the very kind words. I was pleased with how the article turned out, especially the quotes by my sons. Ver sweet.
Hope all is well with you. Love the tapestries.
Vicki
Wow! Now I can say I know a celebrity! Very, very impressive Vicki. I'm so happy for you. A big congrats! I can't wait to read it. Can you email me the PDF please? Let me know if you need my email address or if you still have it.
ReplyDeleteA big hug to you my friend!
Susan
You are too kind Susan!
DeleteI'm not really sure I'd use the term "celebrity"...I think probably 6 people read that article. (Okay...maybe 7! LOL) I will send you the PDF. Have your email in my address book.
Thanks again for your support from the beginning. It makes me very happy to know people like my story and characters.
Best wishes to you,
Vicki
