There are many wonderful days in a writer’s life (–along with some dreadful ones)!
THE HIDDEN HISTORY OF AMERICA AT WAR: Untold Tales from Yorktown to Fallujah (May 5-Hachette Books/Random House Audio)
But few are as special as the day a box of brand new books arrives. There’s a lot of expectation — and some anxiety.
For a few minutes, though, we get to take a deep breath and marvel at the possibilities.
Most of all, you know that there is much hard work still to come –making sure the world knows what you have been doing, locked away in your office for months at a time.
And then I always think of all of the people who made this book possible –editors, designers, copy editors, publicists. There is a great team of them at my publisher Hachette Books and audio publisher Random House.
So, many thanks to all of them.
Watch for more announcements of appearances and bookstore events. And thanks for being readers!
