    BTW, I failed to mention that I did edit the book...............
    When the book soars on the `Preferred Reading list' of multiple book critics, you will be as excited as she!

    You'll keep us posted?

    Thanks. I go to my local B&H book store at least once a month. Hope to see her there.

    I'll let you know.

    She and I are actually a fairly interesting story. We were both born and raised in the same small town in Texas, she is a year older, but of course looks younger. We only really knew each other in passing, although I did party with one of her brothers occasionally. As kids, we were paid to pick pecans from the same trees and her father may have worked with my granddad on a big ranch that he was the head foreman for. After high school, she moved to Wisconsin and I went to Maryland. We exchanged a couple friendly messages on Classmates about 27 years later, but then lost track again. (I thought she wasn't interested, but apparently I blew that one!). Two years later, we met up again on Facebook and she told me she had written this book but hadn't done anything with it. I told her that I helped write and proof scientific manuscripts for the government and she asked me to edit her book. Two years later, here we are and the book is finally published.

    This the first time in my 48 years that it finally feels "right". Moral of the story, don't ever give up on love. It may look like you'll never find him or her, but who knows, you may already have but the time just wasn't right...........

    Cue up the music for Love Story.

    Seriously, when it's right you know it.

    I was club photographer for my ski club and we where on a trip to Banff, Canada. A friend of mine introduced me to her roommate for the trip. Along with some other friends we hung around each other for the week. After we got home I asked my friends roommate out and three months later I proposed. That was 34 years ago and this year we will be celebrating our 34th anniversary. IT good luck and congrats.
    May the force be with us.

    Thanks and congrats to you also!! My grandparents were married for almost 72 years so I always thought I would be the contrarion and stay single for 72 years. Looks like that trend may be changing............
