| I have begun to look into publication options. It's about time, huh? I haven't earnestly edited the book in a long time; in the distance the finish line looms. I think I'm scared about getting done with it, because then I'll have to face publishing- which could be a big and scary thing at 13 years of age. The author of Annie: Diary of a Bad Girl told me he'd be interested in reading and helping publish it. He sent me a postcard but I haven't been in further contact with him since that, though. The Rat Lady, Debbie Ducummon, said she's interested in reading it. I have gathered much support from all the rat people I've come across, which always helps me and fuels an attempt at further revising. You can help. With all that's left to do is polish up the subplot, I am VERY excited about what's going to happen next!
