Drum Roll Please

Why am I posting today? Well, I am completely thrilled to announce that I . . . HAVE AN AGENT!! Woohoo!!

And not just any agent :) Deidre Knight is the dynamo president of The Knight Agency, which she founded in 1996. We found each other when I entered the speed dating contest on her agency's blog back in December. Turns out, my writing must have resonated with her, because a little over a month later, I am proud, humbled, and downright stoked to join TKA's family.

As for the timing... well, lets just say it was a heck of a birthday gift! Okay, I better stop giggling and go to bed :)
