Congratulations Tom!!! :S :goodnevil: :S
And I believe in you
altho you never asked me too
I will remember you
and what life put you thru.

~fly fly little wing, fly where only angels sing~

~this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you~

...for then I could fly away and be at rest. Sweet rest, Mom. We all love and miss you.

Thanks very much to all of you. I'm pretty excited. I've been totally energized by the news and I'm beginning to refocus my efforts to get work done on my full length novel. I hope I'm done before SRD is finished with book 4. :D

I just sent them a manuscript. Sounds easy but we'll see what they deliver once things begin to develop.

Does the publisher have exclusive rights to you, your book, or what exactly?
Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion

I'm afraid there's no denying
I'm just a dandelion
a fate I don't deserve.

The publisher has exclusive publishing rights to Folly's Challenge for 7 years. Nothing more. I'm free to shop any other stories with anyone else.

Be sure to let us know publication and touring information as it becomes available. If you come to our Barnes & Noble or Borders, I expect you and your entourage to come to my house for a home cooked dinner. :D 8)

"Good news everyone!"

I just approved the final manuscript of Folly's Challenge & Other Stories.
The book now goes to the art department to develop the cover art and design and then hits the stores. Its taken a lot longer to get this done than I thought but hopefully the waiting will be worth it. :-)
I'll let everyone know when I have a firm release date.
