I very much enjoyed read...Congratulations, Theresa! I very much enjoyed reading this excerpt. I love the spunky adolescent wit, 'like a cupcake vomited on me'. The sensation that remains with me is the tension between the three generations of women, the grandmother, the bride and 13 yr-old Lucretia. The imagery will also stay with me, 'dropping-an-anchor down-my-stomach'. All in all, you made a deep impression on me with just a short piece. <br /><br />Warmest Wishes, <br /><br />MaryMary O'Reganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02297258196154730575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997511604626000850.post-42397644657660880252013-09-11T12:19:28.004-04:002013-09-11T12:19:28.004-04:00SM Johnston, that's wonderful to hear. Yes, yo...SM Johnston, that's wonderful to hear. Yes, you and your son go in my (hopefully) future acknowledgements! I hope the fact that Lucretia is biracial means that even more children can relate to her.<br /><br />I just put up a post about this experience, along with a few other things going on in my life: <br /><br />http://theresamilstein.blogspot.com/2013/09/fortuneate.htmlTheresa Milsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03477761307315565259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997511604626000850.post-9233273255865363342013-09-11T07:47:03.256-04:002013-09-11T07:47:03.256-04:00I love looking for stories that my 8yo son and I w...I love looking for stories that my 8yo son and I would read together, and this one we would. My family are huge comic book fans, so there's a great plus there in the concept for me. But what really sold me was the fact that it was a unisex story. The MC is a girl, but it's a storyline my son would love. <br /><br />“It looks like a cupcake vomited on me.” - That really cemented it for me that I wanted this. And I wasn't the only one. It was on two other teams' lists. So my son gets an acknowledgement as well when this one is published :PSM Johnstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03546994863993080465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997511604626000850.post-29328872211247640612013-09-11T06:15:47.887-04:002013-09-11T06:15:47.887-04:00Thank you, Kimberly!
