Feedback

At last I've heard from the publisher and it's good news as he does want to publish my book. He congratulates me on my 'great and easy reading style' yet he refers to the work as 'a serious academic study' which is exactly the balance I aimed for.

However, I'm not leaping about and squeeeing just yet as so far he's only read about a quarter of it. He does describe the early chapters as 'wonderful' and, in my view, the second half is the better half but it's not my opinion that counts now.

So until he's read the whole thing I'm not getting too excited and I'm just concentrating on my lambing which is more than enough to occupy me just now. But at least it's a case of so far so good!

Yaaaay!! So far so good indeed!! *g*

Hope lambing is continuing to go well, and I will keep on crossing my fingers that the publisher continues to give your book the praise I know it deserves!

Suz, you're so kind!

Lambing is going well and has been very busy today especially but all are doing OK thanks.

That is great news. I bet he'll love the rest of the book even better, so, you can start getting ready for the 'leaping about and squeeeing'. *g*

That sounds good. Hope the publisher likes the later chapters just as much or even even better!

Good news - encouraging this far at least. Hope it continues this way - and good luck with the lambing.

Thank you on both fronts! Lambing is very busy but going well.
