Amy

For my own personal record and because I want to remember.

I am very grateful for this friend of mine. I can't remember how long Amy Scharf and I have been friends--years. We went to the temple with her and her husband the day they were sealed, we actually helped teach their temple prep classes. She is a special person to me. I love her. And she's always been way too kind in her praise of my writing. She loved it before it was revised and edited. Before anyone else saw anything special in it. And it means so much.

She is one of my ARC people. And she sent me this message last night:

Well today I have laughed I've cried, and I've accomplished very little, all thanks to you and your amazing talent. I'm sad that I'm finished with your book again, and would love more than anything to pick up another one of YOUR books and be lost for hours again. I can't tell you how amazed I am by you and how proud of you I am. YOU ARE AMAZING my dear friend. Love you!!!
