Christmas was your typical chaos. And, I have to admit, realizing I couldn't check email or use the phone, was kind of traumatizing at first. We are so 'plugged' in all the time, ya know? But I got over my panic pretty quickly. The world didn't end just because I couldn't read or send email. And the visit turned out quite nice. No distractions. Just time with my family, and lots and lots of beautiful snow.
Hope you all had a lovely Christmas. Here's to an awesome New Year!

Kelly,
I'm glad you made it home safely. Sounds like you had a memorable trip.
I can relate to that initial feeling of withdrawal upon learning that you are out of touch with cyberspace. We had a record snowfall here in the Sierra Foothills in December and were without power for 24 hours. Felt funny not checking email, visiting blogs, etc. However, there's a sense of peace that settles in eventually, which can be a nice change of pace.
I've heard life changes dramatically for a published author. I may get to find out soon, since I got a wonderful and unexpected Christmas present, an offer of representation from my Dream Agent. (Story on 12/23 at keligwyn.blogspot.com.)
I hope things settle down for you soon. In the meantime, enjoy the once-in-a-lifetime thrill of being a debut author.
