I just found out that my first published erotic romance, Always You, was chosen as a finalist in the Passionate Plume contest. The winner will be announced at the RWA Nationals this summer. This is such a huge contest it's definitely one of those cases where it really is an honor just to be nominated. Squee!!

Congratulations!

So cool, Cheeky! I really hope you win it, but either way: MAJOR SQUEE!

An update on the Squee:

The Agent got back to me last week (The day before BEA) and requested a partial! EEE! This is my first request of any kind. My first QUERY of any kind. So I have sent out a bunch of other queries so that I can possibly have options if this agent offers rep. Happy!

Thanks. My wife would probably kill me if she knew I'd posted that. It's very early on, and all that stuff about who you are supposed to tell and all, but I couldn't keep it in. :)

mark, that is super awesome. Like, awesome x1000! And we're the best people to tell. None of us are creepy stalkers who'll stalk you and call your close family. Or, well, I think none of us are. ;)

Congratulations Mark! (Although this may be displaying my youth and ignorance, what does two pink lines mean???) :?:
