Videos captured and mommy is nominated to the Pushcart Prize.

I guess my video-boot-camp yesterday worked. Mommy did a great job today and we have lots of new videos but no time to download, edit and upload it yet. Hopefully daddy will get home early from work tomorrow (dream on dude!) so he can get this done and posted.

Some non-Maya related news:
Mommy got nominated for the Pushcart Prize by Redivider Journal. This is apparently a very prestigious American award for literary works. Daddy and Maya are very proud! Just being nominated is an honor in itself.

Deutscher Taschenbuch Verlag, a German publisher, bought another of mommy's short stories this week for translation to German and it will be included in their "New Dreams of the Red Chamber" anthology.

Daddy is not nominated for any prizes and his writing is not likely to be sold to anyone anytime soon but he is extremely proud of mommy's accomplishments. You would think mommy would be writing this blog huh? Maybe she will be doing a guest appearance here soon and raise the literary level of the blog?
