Sold!

No, not me. But bet I got your attention! ;-)

My good friend Nelsa Roberto sold her YA novel ILLEGALLY BLONDE!

Nelsa and I have been on this ride together for a while and I cannot wait to see her book in print!

Go visit her blog and read the story of her call.

  4. Thanks, Maureen and all the others who commented on my blog! I'm always blown away by the support and enthusiasm of writers - they are such a great bunch of people. I'm lucky to have found the TRW. I know I wouldn't have been able to write Illegally Blonde if I hadn't found this great group of writers. I learned so much but, more importantly, I've received support and encouragement on this very long, hard haul. Maureen has been especially amazing - some of my emails to her have had more angst than a teenage drama queen. Thanks for your shoulder! And thanks everyone for your good wishes. It truly means a lot.

  5. Maureen,

    My heart began to pound with excitement for you when I read "sold" -- I was visiting Drunk Writers.

    I'm disappointed it wasn't you, but I'm thrilled for Nelsa. I remember laughing out loud when she was telling me the plot line of one her contemporaries.

    Nelsa, if you're reading this, congratulations and best wishes for a wonderful career.
