In my last post I wrote about the draft I sent to Ms.D. To say it was a stressful event would be an understatement.

Yesterday my phone rang. I picked up. It was her. Oh crap. I thought. It's so bad that she actually had to pick up the phone.

This is where I need to point out that Ms.D is an email person. I am an email person. We communicate almost entirely online, which is fine, no, it's great. It works well because we're both so busy. So to have her calling me was very out-of-the-ordinary.

As it turns out she emailed me the day I sent the draft and then again the following week when I followed up to see if she'd read it. For some reason I didn't receive either of those emails. I combed my spam folders and came up dry. Email fail gives me the willies. I mean really, what else have I missed? It makes me so crazy I can't even think about it.

But, guess what, she liked the draft. She really liked it.

We chatted, I hung up, and then let out a big whoop. That icy anxiety inside of me melted faster than I could hang up the phone.

What a relief. I feel more more confident than ever. And now that I know I'm on the right track I feel like I am out of the limbo of unknowing and can truly forge ahead.
