Remembering 9/11
I can't say this day affects me in the same way as my American counterparts but it was a shocking day for many. The post It's Been Twelve Years by Jay Noel almost brought me to tears. I must admit there was a lump in my throat before I reached the end. Two of the people who had signed up for my reveal had let me know they'll post on a different day because they had other posts in mind in relation to September 11, 2001 and I was fine with that. So even though it is technically 9/12 now, let's all take a moment to remember 9/11 and those who were lost and those who were saved.
You were all over the blogging world yesterday!
ReplyDelete9/11 touched everyone in some way, whether you live here in the US or not.
Your cover is great. Something refreshingly different.
ReplyDeleteAnd Alex is so right. I can remember where I was at the exact moment the news broke. Unforgettable.

Congrats on a successful cover reveal! :-)
ReplyDeleteI can also remember that moment. It's pretty much etched into my memories.
9/11 for me is a reminder of what this nation can be when we stand together. The loss breaks my heart, of course. But I refuse to think the terrorists won. Yes they hit us, but no they didn't send us running. If anything, for a time, this nation was more tightly bonded than I've ever seen before.
ReplyDeleteYou do have an awesome cover. I'm glad I could be a part!
Glad the cover reveal went well, Sheena. Can't believe so much time has passed since that fateful date.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a successful cover reveal! We all remember that date. It seems etched in our hearts.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a touching way to remember that terrible day!
ReplyDeleteYou're quite welcome Sheena-kay! And thanks for the memorial post. It's very heartwarming to know that people not here still remembers. Writer’s Mark
ReplyDeleteSheena-Kay I happened upon your wonderful cover time and again, what great support. Americans should never forget 9/11. God Bless America!
ReplyDeleteYour cover reveal was such a success! I saw it everywhere. So awesome!
ReplyDeleteI can still remember exactly where I was on 9/11 too. I guess it's not something anyone will ever forget.
Way to dedicate the day. We will always remember.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on a successful cover reveal.
ReplyDelete9/11 affected the entire world, and I remember the moment of surreal stupor when watching it first on TV in India.
It was so fun, as I was visiting around the blogosphere to see your book cover everywhere!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on such a successful cover reveal. The cover was very nice!
ReplyDelete9/11 is a day I'm sure most people remember what they were doing when it was announced on TV. I remember I was in the 8th grade and in my Geography class. It's sad to know how many people lost their loved ones on that day. :(
