The launch of Child of a Hidden Sea has been exciting, perhaps even something of a whirlwind. To anyone who bought the book, posted a review, tweeted about it or even went “Whee!” in the privacy of their kitchen, I want to say thank you. Your support is delightful and humbling and amazing, and I feel very blessed.

And in my final post on Magical Words today, I bring my penetrating insight to bear on the plot of Back to the Future.

In case none of that does it for you, here’s a kitten picture:

Enjoy!
