Now that you know all the dirty details on my blogging history (gasp) I got some more great news today. In fact this post is full of good news, so stop reading now if you think you’ll get bored.
First, apparently Rose Hilliard at St. Martin’s wants to see a partial manuscript for my book that won the contest! And I don’t think she was one of the judges. But I’m really thrilled, because St. Martin’s was one of the places I was considering sending to. I’d love to break in there. They always have lighter stories, and mine is super hot, but has that contemporary light edge. Second, I made the Best Seller list again this month at Cobblestone Press. I came in at #5 with my book The Pirate’s Booty, which has only been on sale 2 weeks!
Okay since I suck at hiding good news, I’ll give a hint to yesterday’s. I got contacted by an agent who wanted me to send a partial of my book that won the contest. So I sent that off today. I won’t say who, because then it gets all sad and personal if I get rejected.
But so much great news lately! I just am crossing my fingers that some pan out. And I know great news is going around. You should check out Sara Dennis blog. I hope she posted her good news. Because it’s definitely squeal worthy.
On another note, I have started a photo blog from Nationals. I’ll keep adding to it each day http://www.shellistevensphotos.blogspot.com/
Okay, back to my wacky pics of the day…. Did anyone see this in the news a couple weeks ago? It actually made me teary eyed. It’s a cat that was born with two faces.
