"All words are symbols that represent unspeakable realities. Which is also why words are magical." (Donald Miller tweet)

and then there were two

It's official.

You've all heard about my Famous Author Cousin.  She writes books.  Gets paid.  Wins awards.  Makes me feel like a slug.  (But not on purpose, so I love her still.)

Well.  I am a slug no more.  A few weeks ago, I got an interesting email from someone I didn't know.  Checked it, with some suspicion.  Asked around.  It seemed surprisingly legit.

And today, ladies and gentlemen, I got paid in return for allowing someone to sponsor one of my posts in this very space.

That's right.  I wrote.  And someone paid.

We've got TWO authors in the family now.
