Last night went very, very well! I had a great turnout, I was able to keep my nerves under control and not projectile vomit on anyone, and everyone really seemed to like it. Of course, I'm just out of the gate, and I already know some changes I'm going to make for Friday night's show, but yeah... it was a fantastic experience.
Thank you to all who came out last night and to all of you who sent your best wishes here in blog comments, by email, or by sending positive psychic energy. You mean so much to me.
I have so much to tell you about this whole adventure, but before I rush off to my day job, I just want to say this: Four months ago, my book was still sitting in my laptop and now it's for sale at my own Las Vegas show. If I can do it, so can you. I'm 52 years old; it's never too late. (Okay, at this age, I'll never be a ballerina, but you get the picture.)
Things don't get done by themselves; you HAVE to take the steps to make it happen.
You can do it. I know you can.

Your congratulations are well deserved! Even if the lace tablecloth reminds me of the one's they'd set up in my old church relief society meetings...I'd rather listen to you talk ANY DAY of the week!
And I bet the ONLY one surprised at your succes is YOU! You know how much your support has meant to me, in just this short time? I doubt it, but it does. And I will tip a glass of wine to you tonight, toots, when one of my best friends is here and we are painting together! And you are right... not even 57 1/2 is too old! You? Yer jist a KID. Much love and celebrating energy flying your way from the right-hand coast!
Congrats Linda! You deserve it hon!! Can't wait to be out there in February and see it!!
You're awesome - that's why you are successful and making a name for yourself. Wish I could be there to see your show. Could you have someone record a portion of it and post a video of it online? That would be so cool. Congrats on your continued success. You deserve it. You're an inspiration to us all.
Mazel Tov, my friend, and enjoy the ride. Can't wait until you have your own VH1 special. ;-)
Whooooo-hoooo!~ I had no doubts...we are really looking forward to seeing you tomorrow...would you please email me where your room will be? Thanks!
Congratulations on both your book and your show.
have you ever reached out to More magazine, which targets women over 40? your story would be perfect. i love the magazine.
i'm guessing you have an agent?
congrats on the show. this is all incredible. wow. you motivate me. i'm almost 46 and dearly in need of transition.
my fiance and i discuss getting married in vegas. if so, i hope it coincides with you show! i'd love to see it.
I am not surprised that you were a big success!!! I would have been shocked if you weren't. You're my role model. :)
"It's never too late" - You are very wise Ms. Lou! I couldn't agree more. Never stop doing the things you love to do, you'll always get better, and you never know what might happen! You go girl!
Congratulations Linda! I'm so happy for you. You're an inspiration. I hope some of your show gets on youtube so we can see it.
I'm so thrilled for you. I can't wait to come out and see your show! I know it's great. I'm so very proud of you, Linda!
Thank you, everyone! The second preview show is tonight and it looks like we'll have a packed house. Full report tomorrow!
