Wow! It is almost better than money, Shelly, because it means groups that couldn't afford a storyteller with those dumb old budget cuts just might be able to - because you made your special presence known. And, though extra money in your pocket truly would be awesome, another child will be in rapt attention and perhaps even go home to give performances for family later mimicking your style. Just means another child can be child a bit longer. Congrats! What an honor. Thank you, Dear Marcia. I am honored by it. But, no way in heck is it better than $$ right now. I haven't had a decent paycheck since May, and won't get one until November (the work is in October, but schools make me wait!). I do want to influence kids to tell stories, but I can't recommend this as a job right now!!

Fantastic, simply FANTASTIC! And you are completely within your right to boast a little bit, cause baby, you deserve to do that -and then some! You know, just thinking here of an old expression -"One door closes and another opens" and I think that's what happened here for you. Now, go and bask a bit more in your limelight! Jeni Hill Ertmers last blog post..The "Playgirl" in the House Aw, shucks, ma'am. I'm plumb embarrassed by your praise, but thank you for it. Unfortunately, I don't get to "bask." I'm burning midnight oil trying to find gigs. If this will only help...

Thank you, darlin’. I just hope it really IS a sign, instead of just a teaser I have gotten a few of those before.

Congratulations! This is great news. What’s the old saying. When a window shuts a door opens or is it the other way around. This likely will open many doors or windows for you either way.
You go girl!
