Sale News!
My editor offered, and I accepted, a new book contract. Wahoo!!!! This one is for three more single titles. Except for the Christmas novella, my 2008 releases are all written and turned in. So, the books from the new sale will come out in 2009/2010. I’ll let you know when I know something more definitive.
And…the sequel referenced in the sale stars Josh from YOUR MOUTH DRIVES ME CRAZY as the hero. Several of you asked for his story. I’m tackling that one first.
Here’s the listing from PW:
FICTION: WOMEN’S/ROMANCE
HelenKay Dimon’s sequel to YOUR MOUTH DRIVES ME CRAZY, to Kate Duffy at Kensington Brava, for publication in 2009, in a three-book deal, by Ethan Ellenberg at the Ethan Ellenberg Agency.

Congratulations, HelenKay, on your book sale. But did you have to type “2010″? I feel like I’m in a movie with loud, jumping, apes, stone obelisks, and really cool music.
Wait, that might be my kids. It’s a teacher workday today.

Sandy - I hesitated when typing 2010. It seems sooooo far away.
Jaci - One more and all the ‘08 titles are in - wahoo!!! And, sweetie, it’s mid-October ‘07. When are you going to write those books that come out within the next 12 months? Hmmm? Your fans want to know.
Fancy - Thanks for the nice comments about YOUR MOUTH DRIVES ME CRAZY on your site!
For those waiting on Josh’s story - I hope you enjoy the 2008 releases while you wait. No Josh, but plenty of fun!
