That's fabulous, Amy! And totally earned.
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

That is a truly beautiful review. And now I shall go pre-order on Amazon!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Amy, it occurred to me - do you write your own copy for the back cover? I mean, you COULD ... and at least it'd be accurate ....

Because books.
Not for Harlequin. I did for my Kensington books, because why not? Easier for everyone. But lo, the Harlequin hierarchy is byzantine and foreboding. You should have seen the FOUR-PAGE art fact sheet I had to fill out for the cover.
To be clear, Kensington is where I used to work, and where I also wrote tons and tons of cover copy as a freelancer.

I sent off my revised manuscript on Sunday night. Today, email from my editor!
"Fantastic job on the manuscript--you absolutely knocked this out of the ball park. :) You've added some really wonderful information and I think the book just feels much more well-rounded. I really do think that GOTHIC CHARM SCHOOL is going to become a staple in every Gothy household."
Eeeeeee!
