another step along the way

The publisher to whom I sent the partial for my mystery novel (The Christmas Tree Farm Murders) has asked to see the full!
My apologies to those of you who already saw the news on Facebook. Or Twitter. Or both. I'm just really excited. This was the first time I had the courage to actually submit a novel. I know a request for a full is no guarantee, but it's definitely a step in the right direction.
Also, since I was in a rather negative frame of mind when I saw the SASE in the mail, I was expecting it to be a form reject. Thus, my excitement is even more pronounced. As my husband said, I'm having a bipolar day -- very bad news, very good news.
