Woo-hoo! I just opened my mail and found a cheque from the Authors’ Foundation (administered by the UK’s Society of Authors). It’s so I can go to England and do in-person research for Hild. This is utterly mind-blowing.
Guess who’s going to have a hangover tomorrow?

ME? Kidding. Congrats!
I tell you, I'd buy you a beer if you were here. I'd buy everyone a beer.
Hot Damn! Excellent news!!
I can't imagine anyone more deserving.
I might have to raise one in your honor myself.
Mead — you need to buy everyone mead! (Except that it's kind of ghastly, but it's the principle that counts.) Congratulations!
Congratulations.
Congratulations :-) This news made my day.
jennifer, my imagination fails there, too :)
