Hearty congratulations, Janet!
Thank you, Jean! It’s been so great working with the various people as it gets handed off from one in-house person to another. Promo materials are out and it’s so amazing not to have to do all these things myself! Thank you for your support during the writing retreat days. Those were great days and helped so much trying to do this during extremely busy times. – J (Sorry to have seen this comment, too, so late!)
Congratulations Janet – always a great moment when one’s efforts crystallise into the finished product. Best of luck with it.
Congratulations, Janet… those following may not have ‘known’ you, but they will surely be grateful for all you have contributed. So proud of my ‘adopted’ cousin…
Thank you, Roy and Chris. I appreciate hearing from you! This project really has completed everything that began in 2006, with a different approach. I hope it will be well received. (Chris, I love that — adopted cousin. May it be in the cards that we will one day be in the same place at the same time!)

Well done Janet. Really looking forward to it’s arrival!..
Caitrióna, Sorry to have “lost” this comment in my work email!!! Thank you for commenting, and for letting me know that Gabrielle’s book was out. I intend to write a cheer on Amazon for her. All good wishes, Janet
Janet, eagerly awaiting your book! Were you a Crosby grad-class of 61? Love to know. Marge benson deLeo
Thank you for the enthusiasm, so good to hear. It will be available for sale on Sept. 9 from Amazon. Will have some in person for the book launch in October, and will set up an account on the blog to sell from there. No, not Crosby, though my Dad went there! If you are in CT, hope you can come to one of the launch events in October or John Bale’s in November.
