Hello from sunny, temperate England (utterly unlike the New York I left, which was somehow both overcast-muggy and 8,000 degrees). And apologies again for the neglect in this time of Busy. But in the meantime, I have tons of things to announce.
First, you still have until midnight tonight to enter the contest! And let's be totally honest--I'm not going to be back at my computer again until Sunday, so if you're running a little late--like three days late--I'm probably not going to notice. No one has suggested a prize yet, either, so I'm still open for suggestions.
In other mischief, lots of of old friends have great news!
Ebony McKenna's debut novel, ONDINE, a fairytale-mystery, was just released in Canada. Congrats, Ebony, and I can't wait to see it in BNN as well as Indigo :)
Anita Laydon Miller, our friendly Colorado book reviewer, has landed a literary agent--she's just signed with Sara Megibow of Nelson Literary. You go, Anita! Let us know how your adventures unfold!
It's a hot day in Colorado. Stephanie Blake (also known as Colorado Writer) has just landed a book deal! Robin Benjamin at Marshall Cavendish has bought Stephanie's debut, THE MARBLE QUEEN, for publication in 2012.
I feel a special victory here because all three of these ladies have been online friends for a long, long time. It's, like, victory for everybody. Congrats, everybody! Keep making me proud :)

Hey, congrats to everyone. England! I know someone else who is in England. Say hello to the queen for me, and tell her we're ready for independence down under.
Have fun, Simon.
Congrats ladies! Enjoy England.
Oddly enough, the Queen has been in New York and probably couldn't be given these colonies back with interest. So warm under that ermine.
Great news all around -- way to go!
(Laughing at Barbara's comment, too. :))
Are you in England for one of those weddings you recently squeaked about?
Awwww, thank you! :)
Awesome news! I'm moving to Colorado, something in the water?
I didn't realize ONDINE was a book! I was eager to see the movie and am now even more excited to read it.
Oh Moonrat thank you so much!
I am having a dream run with Ondine, the reviews have been so positive I can't believe my luck.
Except for people confusing it for the movie. :-)
I'm sorry, it's not a tie-in for the Colin Farrell film. (Even though he's gorgeous) We began editing and then found out about the movie. The timing was just one of those things. Ah well.
*mwah* and have a wonderful time in England.
Silly me, forgot the best bit
Congratulations Anita and Stephanie.
Such fantastic news!!!!
England?!?!? First time I've been jealous of a (moon)rat :)
Have a fabulous time. I totally need a scone...
Thanks, Moonie! Have some tea for me.
Prize? Why the shoes, of course.
I want those slippers!
Enjoy England, the land of my birth.
Congratulations to all those with exciting book news.
Moonrat! INTERN is in England too! Let's wave at each other from our respective castles!
The very best mischief!
Congratulation to the trio!
Congrats, ladies! I'm happy for all three of you!
