A Holiday Treat

Never been a big Halloween fan. Blame my mother. She turned the house into an amazing showcase for Christmas. For Halloween she grumbled until the day passed. So, I offer a little something for those who dislike Halloween and for those who enjoy it.

For the anti-Halloween crowd: look at these books deals. “Significant” means the author got in the $251,000-$499,000 range. “Major” means $500,000 and up. Uh-huh, that’s big money.

FICTION: WOMEN’S/ROMANCE
Linda Lael Miller’s next few novels, to Dianne Moggy at Harlequin, in a major deal, by Irene Goodman at Irene Goodman Agency (world).

FICTION: WOMEN’S/ROMANCE
NYT bestselling author Carly Phillips three more novels, to Dianne Moggy at HQN, in a significant deal, by Robert Gottlieb of the Trident Media Group.

FICTION: WOMEN’S/ROMANCE
NYT bestselling author Mary B. Morrison’s three untitled novels of erotica, to be written under the pseudonym Honey B., to Karen Thomas at Warner, in a significant deal, by Andrew Stuart at The Stuart Agency (World).

For the pro-Halloween crowd: while I’ve heard that cartoon covers are on the outs, I do like these for Annette Blair. Think they’re cute and flirty. Having read the first two (the third comes out in December ‘06), I can say the covers convey the mood of the stories. The covers are a good match to the author’s style.
