Waiting out the process of publishing a book is sometimes strenuous. Things must be done -- a manuscript critiqued, revised -- (long story, short.) So it is with my case as well -- the process.
Now through everything, an author can get a reward of sorts. One that will never be forgotten. Something, that comes from the hearts of those that you have reached out there with your material. All the work -- late nights, early mornings -- time away from your own family so to speak. The window of life getting smaller.
In late February, I received an envelope from the Edmonton Public Schools -- the very school (Oliver School,) where I sent my first copy of the kids' book, Clancy Your Neighboring Satellite. This envelope reaching me, it contained colored drawings from a number of young students -- in relation to pages of my project. The heartfelt, well thought out artistry work, will be cherished by this author for his lifetime. This caring, also includes Elementary teacher, Kim Pisio, who made this all possible.
All I can say is -- there are only a limited amount of rewards in a person's life -- this including being an author. This response has been one of those greatest rewards...
Thanks to each and every one of you.
Author- Glen Boulier
