      Thanks, Mr. ipants! 🙂
      I had wine at the launch event last night, and folks didn’t drink as much as I thought they would – so I have PLENTY. And I do need to get back to work…on that darn outline.

    Is this vindication? If memory serves Dixie was on submission for some three years. That must make this all the sweeter. I salute you because I am getting tired of congratulating you. All the best.

      Actually, the book went on sub in 2012 and was sent out to 23 editors who rejected it, and then it wasn’t submitted anymore. The term my agent used for the status was “inactive,” meaning it could go on sub again, if the right editor came along. I liked the way he did this – because it meant if he had lunch one day with the “right” editor, he could submit it to him. So…when BLACK WATER was on sub, and got rejected, as you know, that editor asked to see something else, and the rest, as they say, is history. 🙂

      I feel sure everyone is sick of me and my news by now. LOL! But I actually have more to share, and it will be the blog post for tomorrow. So, get that salute ready. 🙂
