When it looks like this outside…<\/p>\n

\"The

The storm that’s been sitting on us: a portrait.<\/p><\/div>\n

Inside should look bright and cheery.<\/p>\n

Hmmmm… what to do? What to do…?<\/p>\n

I KNOW!<\/p>\n

Invite Nanette the Nanny<\/a> over to help ship out all of your new novels!<\/p>\n

\"Stack

Leaning Tower of “Grounded”<\/p><\/div>\n

Now you may think to yourself, “Seriously? Nanette the Nanny would come all that way to help you ship books?!”<\/p>\n

And I would have to say to you, “Not only that\u2014she insisted!”<\/p>\n

“AND she brought coffee!”<\/p>\n

Such is the awesomeness of the Nanny!<\/p>\n

This is Herself and the Stack early in the morning:<\/p>\n

\"Perky

Perky Polly and the Small Stack of Books<\/p><\/div>\n

This is Herself and the Stack and the Likker later in the afternoon (good stuff, too, Jefferson Whiskey! Yum!):<\/p>\n

\"All

All Likkered Up with the diminishing stack of books.<\/p><\/div>\n

Then, in the roll of Evil Taskmaster, I determined we should take the first boxes full of books to the local USPS\u00a0(because THEY aren’t shut down–Thank you USPS for being independent and funded by us. You made me happy!). Nanette moved so fast she was nothing but a blur:<\/p>\n

\"IMG_0669\" \"IMG_0672\" \"IMG_0671\" \"IMG_0670\"<\/p>\n

Was it because she knew McKeever’s Pub<\/a>, a bowl of hot broccoli-cheddar soup, and a Kelly’s Cider<\/a> awaited her?<\/p>\n

Only she can say.<\/p>\n

Regardless, all the books are on their way to all of you who pre-ordered them, all signed and happy (and dry, for goodness sake! Nanette is an awesome protector of books).<\/p>\n

Thank you all so much for pre-ordering your copies!!!<\/p>\n

I hope you enjoy the story as much as I enjoyed writing it for you!<\/p>\n
