More good news from Kay Stockham:
RT gave ANOTHER MAN'S BABY 4 1/2 stars! Whoo-hoo! I am so thrilled I can't stand it! I've never received that extra 1/2 star before.

From Kay Stockham:
My good news is that I've sold two more of the Tulanes of Tennessee to Super. Yay! :) Picture me breathing a HUGE sigh of relief! I have a job next year!

From Renee Ryan:
Renee announces her third sale to Steeple Hill!
"In 2006 I contracted with a new agent (literally, I was his second client).
A few months later, Steeple Hill (an imprint with Harlequin) started taking
submission for a new line -- LOVE INSPIRED HISTORICALS. We submitted a
manuscript, went through a round of revisions and...long story short, I have
now sold three books to LIH. The first two sales on completes, the most recent one on proposal. What's really exciting is that the Inspirational market is the fastest growing market in the industry. It's an exciting time."

From Shiloh Walker:
"I just sold three more books to Berkley!
I had three different books with my editor at Berkley to see if she was interested in any ofthem. And she wants all of them. All three. Three totally
unrelated books, and they'll actually be going to three different
imprints of Berkley."

From Anya Bast:
"Hi all -- I'm very happy to report that Berkley bought three more
books from me for their sensation line. The next two books in the
Elemental Witches series (which will conclude it), and also the first
book in a new dark urban paranormal series, featuring the fae."
