I was so excited when my publisher put out my first book that I thanked everyone I could think of who encouraged me along the way, from my friends and family to my instructors in the GCLS Writing Academy. I included my publisher for taking a chance on me and my editor for sure. I was astounded to find out later that after all the authors my editor had worked with over the years, I was the very first one who thanked her with an acknowledgment. She was over the moon excited! That's sad. I mean, nice it happened then, but sad it hadn't happened before. Needless to say, I'm very careful to make sure that she never gets left out now.

When I get a thank you for my tutoring or even my listening, it makes me willing to do one more round of math facts or one more session of "she did me wrong!" I value it so much that I keep a stack of thank you cards on my recliner table. Writing at least one a day helps keep me in the habit and keeps on my radar. I was so grateful for the cards that people sent after my mom died I even sent them thank yous. You just never know how your thank you will touch someone! Thanks for reinforcing that today.Ona Maraehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13203447324149158546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1873889619654138974.post-1203508346677391892018-04-12T15:44:24.616-04:002018-04-12T15:44:24.616-04:00I've never said it (sorry about that) but THAN...I've never said it (sorry about that) but THANK YOU for so freely sharing your insights and expertise.
