Words are the small things to celebrate every day!

Reading is a joy . . .anywhere, and for millions. Yet so many people can’t:
read a prescription drug label
open a bank account
get a credit card
read street signs
complete a job application,
so today I’m celebrating WORDS because I can read and understand their message.

I’m also celebrating finally getting Sliding on the Edge out as an ebook. It has been a long haul from publisher debacle to restoration of rights to this.
Then Princess of Las Pulgas is free until July 1.
Small Things add up, don’t they? What are your Small Things this week? Be sure to visit others in the hop. They have lots to Celebrate.
So many of us take reading for granted, but it's such a treasure.
Congrats on Sliding 🙂
Congratulations on the Sliding on the Edge! Seems you persisted and did it!
Well done, certainly time to celebrate!
Woohoo for Sliding on the Edge!!!! And words? they must be celebrated, they must 😀
THanks, S.K! Let's celebrate a lot.
Yay for words!!!! Words are so important – as is understanding them!
Have a great weekend, CLee and HUGE congratulations with your ebook!! Take care

Thanks so much. Always great to hear from my feline lover. You're the best.
Mega congrats to you for your outcomings! Those and words are wonderful celebrations. Writer’s Mark
Hi Nancy! Glad you're celebrating with me.
Another blog hop! I like words and especially if they are written in proper English as in English, English. Although, I also like to make up words. Thus, "Argggghhhhhh", has become an officially recognised word. What an honor..oops…honour!
Glad your, "Sliding on the Edge", is out on eekbook, or whatever it's called. "Princess of Las Pulgas"? Must check that out and my maps of California and Nevada.
Thank you for your kind, supportive comment on my latest posting, Lee.

I love words.
I'm glad you got Sliding on the Edge taken care of. I'll check out Princess of Las Pulgas.
Very cool, congrats on getting your ebook out. I agree, we'd be lost without words and understanding them.
Have a great weekend 🙂
wonderful celebrations! everyone needs to know how to read!!
and yay for working out your rights!
Literacy is indeed a great celebration!
Glad you got your book rights back… that's a great thing:)
Congratulations on getting Sliding on the Edge in ebook!! I absolutely love your author's webpage and to celebrate words is fantastic and so glad I can read.
Words are wonderful! Glad Sliding on the Edge is all sorted out. 🙂 I am happy for this beautiful sunny day. 🙂

That picture…it so had me! YAY!!! for getting Sliding on eBook. I know what a struggle it's been. You're persistence has paid off.
So true! We take words for granted, but without them, our lives would be so difficult. Congrats on the release. 🙂
Congratulations on your release! And yay for words! 🙂 Have a wonderful weekend.
Wow, congrats on the release! How exciting. And it's always a great time to celebrate words 🙂

I love the idea of celebrating words. Congrats on your release! Going to check it out now…
Words are food for the soul. You are right all those little things add up.
Small things to add up. Congrats on getting your rights back and getting your book out there.
Good to hear you got your e-rights all worked out. I just downloaded "Princess", can't wait to read it!
Congratulations on the ebook, and good for you for hanging in there. Words are something to celebrate – and not be taken for granted.
congrats on the ebook, milady! And us in the book business, really often forget that there are so many people out there who can't even read nor write 🙁 And this modern ear of communication gadgets doesn't really inspire kids to write and read 🙁
Congratulations on getting your book out on Kindle! One of mine will be out in that format very soon as well. You're right that so many people are not able to appreciate words and what they mean. It's very sad.
Words are a great thing to celebrate. There are some beautiful ones out there 🙂
Let's celebrate the beautiful ones, shall we?
Words truly are special 🙂
Totally forgot to let you know that I awarded you on Wednesday! Do with it what you will. Happy Friday!
I got an award? Good golly I'm coming over to see!
Very glad you were able to get Sliding on the Edge to this point!!
And I whole-heartedly agree that words are ridiculously important…in ways oft not grasped.
Those words can get you in trouble, too! Man, have I learned that the hard way.
Lovely to see you here as always.
I love your new webpage. I love the sound of the moving books!
I'm so happy you've got your book back! 🙂
Thanks, Theresa! I'm looking forward to Harold Underdown's visit to you blog. That's very exciting.
I'm so sorry to hear about the publishing debacle with Sliding on the Edge and the fight to get the book rights back and it out as an ebook. Yay for your triumph! (That pic is really creepy. Reminds me of Alien.)
Thanks, Lexa. I learned a lot, so in the end I guess it was worth the misery.
That's a very cool picture.
Congratulations on your book!!! I am also celebrating I can't not just read but do it in two languages. I would miss all this fun if I wouldn't know English. 😀
Bi-lingual, bi-cultural people are so privileged. I wish we could all be more international, Al.
What a great idea for a celebration. I seriously can't imagine being unable to read. It's such a gift!
And congrats on Sliding on the Edge! That's awesome. 🙂
Thanks, Julie. This back and forth with the publisher has been long and tedious.
Reading is a huge gift, and so is writing.
Love that picture – it makes me want to write!
And congratulations on your ebook release!
Those metatarsals make you think, don't they?
Couldn't agree more about words. Coincidentally, I'm celebrating literacy today, too. Congrats on the ebook.
I'll stop by and read your post!
Words matter.
And wow, congrats on the Sliding ebook!!!
Good morning, Catherine. Hope all goes well with your launch. You had so many entries to win your book!
Words are something wonderful to celebrate! Great job on getting Sliding on the Edge out there!
Thanks, Dani. So nice to find your comment here this morning!
Awesome you got your rights back!!!
And that is one freaky picture.
