May this be the beginning of something really special. And if you don't get THIS contract, you have shown that you have the talent to be a professional writer and can press on with confidence. Very few people would EVER get this far. Bravo, and good luck!

Btw, Stephan King got so many rejections that he threw the acceptance letter and contract for "Carrie" in the trash unopened!! His wife pulled the envelope out of the wastebasket and opened it, and the rest is history.
