I wanted you to be among the first to know — I now have a publisher for my book.

On July 26, 2011, this appeared in Publishers Lunch:  The Publishing Industry's Essential Daily Read:

Harvard Business Review contributor and President of Clay Christensen's investment firm Rose Park Advisors, Whitney L. Johnson's DREAM. DARE. DO.: Remarkable Things Can Happen When You Dare To Dream, based on Johnson's Dare to Dream blog, a manual to inspire women to first value their dreams, then define them, and finally to execute them, whether the dream is to have a career or family, or both, to run a marathon or start taking ballet lessons, to Erika Heilman at Bibliomotion, for publication in May 2012, by Josh Getzler at Hannigan Salky Getzler.

I am over-the-moon thrilled — thank you for helping me dare to dream.

P.S.  My publisher is suggesting that I start organizing dare-to-dream retreats.  I never have — but it could be fun.  What do you think?
