Dandi's Friend Comments

Thanks, Dandi!😃📚

Thank you Dandi.

Carmen, what a delight to hear your good news! I'm not at all surprised to hear that the book is published, and I'm humbled that you'd mention me in it. Thanks so much--I'm honored!

So glad to re-connect here. And lucky you, with a daughter who loves to write, as well.

Keep in touch, okay? Blessings, Dandi

Hi Dandi,

It's a pleasure to be in your friend’s list. As you may remember I was your student several years ago. The book I wrote then under your mentorship was published last October by Tanglewood Press, under the title Two Moon Princess.

I am deeply in debt to you because, as I express in the acknowledgement page (shown below), Two Moon Princess would be quite different without your critiques and warm support.

Acknowledgements
I want to express my gratitude . . .
To my children, Natalia and Nicolás who had given me so much,
To Spain and its History from which I borrowed freely,
To Sandy Asher who saw the potential of the story when it was merely a seed,
To Dandi Mackall who helped it grow,
To Mary Lanctot my first reader,
To Don Swain and members of the Bucks County Writers Workshop for their critique and support,
To Peggy Tierney and Stephanie Burgevin at Tanglewood for believing so strongly in my story,
And to my parents and my sister María José who sent me on my journey.


My daughter, who wants to be a writer too, read your book Larger-Than-Life Lara last year when she was 11, and loved it.

Carmen
