Sybil's essay, "Grey," was one of the first pieces of mother-writing I ever read. That was a few years ago, and I still remember how wowed I was by her writing and her thoughtfulness. Congrats, Sybil, I can't wait to read the book.
Oh congratulations Sybil!!! I am so happy for you.
At the risk of overwhelming you with originality--CONGRATULATIONS, SYBIL! You rock!
Okay, I'm a little late chiming in here, so you may not see this... but Congratulations!!! Just the other day I was just remembering that you had mentioned (way back when) that you were trying to sell the book, and I was hoping that you had, and that it would be coming out soon. I'll be looking for it!
