The best week ever!!
I have had such a good week...yesterday I formally accepted a teaching position, and will get backpay with the current salary for 2 weeks as well as get credit for teaching the full year...

And today, I just received a letter from a publisher, I sent the book out MONTHS (like 6 months) ago...saying that they are interested in my book (its just an antiques book)...but STILL...
I've never had a job before in my life, and I've never been published before either...AHHH, so excited!!!

1. Congratulations
Maybe I'll be able to publish a book this year (if I finish it). Who is the Publisher?

My week sucked, but at least someone had a good week.

3. It's called Collectors Books...
which from my understanding is a very good publisher in that realm:)

5. Wonderful!
But I'm still rooting for the "Oops!" thread :P

Seriously, that's the kind of week that makes it "best ever" for just about anyone! :toast:

8. I'm thrilled for you.
That's wonderful! I'll buy the book if it gets published; my wife loves antiques, and she could use a good print source. Good luck! :-)
