Woohoo! I received a contract in my inbox this morning from my Ellora’s Cave editor for the fourth Middlemarch book. My complaining about all the waiting must have worked. Assassin will be out sometime in 2008. Now I need to write a blurb, but I’m thinking I might have a celebratory drink first!
I finished the first draft of the Jewel of the Nile Quickie I’ve been writing. I’m going to let it sit until next week before I do edits, rewrites and polishing, leaving myself plenty of time before deadline.
No Thursday Thirteen for me today. I want to work on the next Middlemarch book and also have an idea for another Jewel Quickie.
Happy writing to everyone, especially if you’re doing the NaNo challenge.

Congratulations! That’s great news!
No Nano for me – vacation and the kids grabbed the computer, and I had some tutoring to do.
Maybe I’ll just do it all by myself in December, lol.

WOO HOO on the sale!!
Still not sure how that happened, but I’m waiting to see if my editor accepts it as a single title. If not – well dayum… I’ll have A LOT of cutting to do.
My Quickie for JotN turned into a novella, which then turned into a short novel.
