Chasing AllieCat and Girl Meets Boy

We have given up on the blog, I think. Each of us keeps her own blog, and it's too much to try to do more than one.
So I'm posting my last news, and maybe we'll retire this blog from the blogophere.

Chasing AllieCat did get named a Junior Library Guild Selection:

Also, Jill Corcoran sold an anthology which contains one of my stories! Kelly Milner Halls is the editor (and one of the authors). Chris Crutcher, Terry Davis, and Terry Trueman are in there, too. I'm so stoked.

CHASING ALLIECAT!!!

I found out yesterday that Chasing AllieCat is being considered as a Junior Library Guild selection for 2011. That would be very, very cool. I better publicize that fact now; I can't get any mileage out of it if she's not picked!

Rejections considered

Very interesting reflection on rejections--from an editor's point of view.

Guess we've been more than a little lax...

Each of us has her our own blog, so we haven't been too active on this one, I guess. Kirstin's book The Sky Always Hears Me has been out for months and is doing well. YAH!

I finished editing Chasing AllieCat according to the comments by my editor at FLUX, and it's a better book. I was frustrated with some of the comments when I first read his letter, but after I've done them, I know he was right. Damn. : ) A few things I disagreed with strongly, and we struck a compromise on the phone. I hope he likes it now.

Going to go through one more time with a fine tooth comb, and send it off.

Kirstin's book up and coming...
