Hi all,
March Madness, for us Colorado mountain folk, means skiers at every turn on the slopes, at every restaurant in town, and in every car next to you in traffic! Yes, we actually have "traffic" here in the Fraser Valley, come ski-and-fun-in-the-sun season!
March Madness also means that everyone's a bit on edge, mad at the mud all round! That, too, is ... "on the slopes, at every restaurant in town, and in every car next to you in traffic!"
March Madness, to writers ... in particular, moi`... means 2008 is actually here and best make out that "to do" list regarding any books coming out! All of a sudden, nominees are being chosen for this award or that award, editors are sending you your manuscript for a final copy-edit run-through, libraries are setting up their summer appearance schedules, marketing needs to be set in place for bookstore signings, et al! Whew ... March Madness means that once again, I'm in the throws of the MARKETING SWEATS!
On a less anxious note, wonderful writer and editor, Alice Duncan, is mentioned in a new tome on romance, ROMANCE TODAY - AN A-Z GUIDE TO CONTEMPORARY AMERICAN ROMANCE WRITERS, Greenhaven Press, 2007. I've had the good fortune of Alice's editoral guide on all four of my books sold to Five Star-Gale, a part of Cengage Learning. She's the best!
Marching all the way into April,
Jo(anne) Gregg Sundell
