But at the same time I'm happy that he has a new opportunity in his life. I can only imagine how you're feeling. It reminds me of when I've had a figure skating coach move away. I saw her every day. She was not only my coach but my friend, my shrink, my motivator... and I'm not going to lie, I bawled my eyes out when she told me she was moving. <br /><br />At least Nathan is still keeping the blog going.

I had no idea! He is a dream agent. He did, however, leave you with an equivalent dream: Anna Webman. So wonderful. I wish you all the best and you will have a book out there before you know it. I've learned a ton from you since I started blogging earlier this year. Thank you, and best of luck always.S.A.

At the same time, of course, I feel for you—that had to be tough news to hear. I assume you've known for a little while, and can't imagine how hard it must have been to keep quiet about it. <br /><br />Transition is usually bittersweet, and this seems like no exception. Best of luck with Anna—I can't wait for her to sell your book(s) so we can read them. <br /><br />:) KaylaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5774363178370829558.post-27140617008129459462010-11-05T15:36:46.167-07:002010-11-05T15:36:46.167-07:00I think everyone who read his blog was in shock re...I think everyone who read his blog was in shock reading that today. My first reaction was "wait... this is Friday, where's the wrap-up?" Then I actually read his post and from there it was sort of a blank wall.<br /><br />He's been at the top of my "to query" list for months, and now I have to find someone else from CB to put in that slot.<br /><br />I knew something was up when he dropped "Agent" from his header, but I had hoped it was just an overhaul of his site layout.<br /><br />Natalie, *hugs*, I hope you have the best success with your new agent, too. Anyone who works for CB has to be top of their game, so I'm sure you're in good hands.<br /><br />:-)Josin L.
