I have very, very, encouraging friends. After I sent out the e-mail saying I was going to be published, I received a few lovely encouraging notes. I’m sharing one with you and I’m including her name and I don’t care if she doesn’t like it, because everyone should receive a letter like this.
I’m just saying.
“Hi Jenn,
I just finished reading your book. I love it. It is going to do so well….. All your hard work will be worthwhile. I can hardly wait to read the next one. You rock girl. I am so proud of you that you make me want to cry with joy at how beautiful you are to me. You are an awesome woman of God and he loves you heaps. Thank you for being my friend. Know that you are loved. If I had a daughter of my own, I would want her to be just like you.
Keep on being who you are and following your dreams.
Love, Lynne
Seriously, how many people do you know write letters like that?
