I am so excited! This is wonderful! Miss Stein called, she's from the Harper & Row publishing, and she wants to publish my book! I just called Aibileen to tell her, but she and Minny are a little concerned that their identities will get out.
That is why the chapter about Hilly is in there... She is what we call our "insurance". In the last chapter Minny told us a little secret about Hilly. This way Hilly will be sure to convince everyone that this isn't about Jackson, and all the maids in the book will hopefully be able to keep their jobs.
I have to go over to see Aibileen now. Bye!
