Hi Tamela,
That picture of you reading Book World is great. I hope one day we will all be reading about your best-seller in BW.
I couple years ago I sent you a proposal for Surrender the Wind. You were very gracious to me and suggested I bring the word count down. You were right. I did a rewrite and got it down to 100,000 words. Barbara Scott with Abingdon has signed me for their new fiction line coming out next fall! One thing I learned is to listen to everything agents and publishers tell me. It made me a better writer.

A quick-match tale of unexpected love . . . A fuse that burned rapidly.

I live in a perpetually late state of behind, almost as large as my real one. Tee hee. I'll bet it's because you originally joined using a different email. But maybe not?
