STATUS: First day back in the office after 6 weeks. Slight chaos.
What’s playing on the XM or iPod right now? BRANDY (YOU’RE A FINE GIRL) by Looking Glass
I honestly didn’t think it was possible but obviously it is. *grin*

Awesome. Congrats to author and agency!
I’m so kindling this. I read NOT QUITE A HUSBAND a few weeks ago…loved it!
Congrats to Sherry!
Woo! Yay for Sherry and for you, too!
I love the cover. I’m going to have to buy it!
Her books are so wonderful. She deserves every award!
Congratulations! 🙂
And the competition was brutal! What fine writers we have in the romance industry. I always think when reading Sherry’s books that she could have easily gone the literary route and gained accolades there. So glad she chose historical romance…especially Victorian era…Yay, Sherry!
I discovered Sherry through this blog and have adored her books ever since 🙂 Congratulations on a very well-deserved honour!
Congratulations to all involved.
Hooray, A new author to read.
Congrats to Sherry and NLA! (Love that cover)
yes very true,, keep your romance live with lots of love,, nice post,, thanks for sharing,,
Myrna: I haven’t read Robin McKinley, but from what I know of her novels, yes, I would say it’s porbably high or epic fantasy, as it’s also sometimes called. I read and enjoyed the first of the Rangers Apprentice series, but yes, I’d also classify that as epic fantasy. It’s really not a matter of liking or disliking. Tolkien is the classic example of epic fantasy, and I love his books. But it’s not a genre I’m looking to represent at this time, simply because it’s not a category I’m as familiar with as others.
