and so... YIP!

[lagilman]

Back from a very long day (tasting thirty [30!] wines sounds like fun until you start to think about it...then you're glad there are spit cups) to finally be able to post the news:

There will be more Retrievers books!

Yep, Luna made an offer for three more books (those of you reading l'agent's [all hail her] blog might have noted the 'had two-book proposal turn into a three book offer' comment -- that was me!). So, two more Wren & Sergei adventures to come, after the one I'm writing now, and a sixth book To Be Determined Later.


Am trilled and delighted, natch. Trill, trill, happy (if tired) trilling.

(agent, btw, is goddess dipped in dark chocolate. Really)


Thanks to all of you whose buying habits made this possible... I promise to do my damndest to keep up my side of the bargain.

YAY!

Wow.

It's apparently book-selling time.

Congratulations!

On the offer--the wine was its own reward. :-)
So glad that Luna decided to offer for more books. The Retrievers is definitely Luna's best.
Three cheers,
Jean Marie

Wowzers! Trill away indeed!!! Excellent work!

[nick-kaufmann.livejournal.com]

That's wonderful news! We should all celebrate by spitting into cups!

I'll second that!

[agamisu.livejournal.com]

Oh yes. And Kaufmann, there are better ways to celebrate, honest.

[azang.livejournal.com]

Nice job! Congratulations!

[scarlettina.livejournal.com]

Excellent news! I'm very happy for you!

(thinks: more book release parties and tours! Yay!)

[havocthecat]

Ooooh. More Wren/Sergei? So damn cool!

*blush* Well, if you're going to insist on saying so, would be rude of me to contradict, no? And one must never be rude...

[pbray.livejournal.com]

Congratulations, and I'm so looking forward to reading these. Yay for you and Yay for agent!

[lagilman]

A backlog, even. Here's hoping y'all feel that way after #s 2 and 3 already on the way....

(starts Panic Attack #439)

Here's hoping y'all feel that way after #s 2 and 3 already on the way....

The answer to that is that, yes, of course we will! I can't wait to tell Mom; she'll be so excited! She's been reccing Staying Dead to all her urban-fantasy/romance reading friends (so have I, for that matter).

And I know Phil and Judy will be so excited for you! And Judy loved Staying Dead too--she doesn't normally read urban fantasy; she sticks with historical romance instead, and you won her over with a genre she's not normally into.

*sends calming vibes for totally unnecessary panic attack*

Congratulations!

[lagilman]

There are? Damn. I've been doing it wrong all these years...



(I plan to start the celebration with a slab of rare red meat, myself...)

[eeknight.livejournal.com]

Awesome!

[jennifer-dunne.livejournal.com]

Excellent news! Congratulations. And now I can start the incessant "Is it here yet? Is it here yet? Is it here yet?" of waiting for even more eagerly anticipated books.

[girasole.livejournal.com]

Brava brava brava.

[jonquil.livejournal.com]

Congratulations, and MORE STUFF TO READ FOR ME! YEA!

[kradical.livejournal.com]

WOO HOO!!!!

[windrose.livejournal.com]

Congrats!!!! That deserves my special "hockey version of a ::happy dance::" icon.

And YAY! more Retrievers books for me to read! :-D

[lenasawyer.livejournal.com]

Yay! For you and for me - I get to read them!

[janni.livejournal.com]

(cheering)

[jacardie.livejournal.com]

That's great!!! Congrats!!!

You people!

[lagilman]

For those who've felt the need to make a comment --I didn't mean it that way. I am pure and innoc...

Okay, so in this particular instance I am not guilty of that particular innuendo, 'k?


Sheesh. Feelthy minds, allaya. Love you lots. ;-)

[liuseth.livejournal.com]

Wow Suri, that really is wonderful.
Congratulations.

[badgermirlacca.livejournal.com]

Oh, WAY TO GO! Can I touch you?

And very cool to have more good books to look forward to!

That's great news! Wren and Sergei are the only ones who've caught my interest, so far, in the Luna line. Loved the first book, looking forward to the rest. By the way, any news on mass-market paperback release?

By the way, any news on mass-market paperback release?

Last I heard, had been postponed until later date. Am somewhat cranky about that, as there are typos that need to be fixed in a new version, but whachagonnado?

[lagilman]

Oh, WAY TO GO! Can I touch you?

NO! *slap, slap* Get away from me, you employed-with-benefits person!

*grin*

And where's that expanded outline/proposal, hrmmm? *taps foot impatiently*

[kefiraahava.livejournal.com]

Oh, Suri, that's wonderful! Congratulations!

[badgermirlacca.livejournal.com]

I knew you were going to ask about that.

I'm actually working on it, but don't expect to be able to really finish revising it until after finals (May 2). Re-typing it into this computer really showed me what you were talking about: terminal expository disease. I think I can fix it (or at least substantially improve it!) with no problem.

We have a Tornado Warning, complete with funnel clouds. Well, it just downgraded to Severe Weather Warning. I suppose I ought to get offline.....
