Writing the Romance Novel: Selling Series

2008 May 8

Today at lunch, I have to brave the spring rains and drive a couple of blocks over to the post office. Going to the P.O. isn’t something that I do very often. I buy my regular stamps at Walgreens. I do all of my banking electronically. My agent takes everything through e-mail. So why am I risking losing the good parking space I got this morning and going out in the bad weather to go to the post office?

To mail back to Barbour the contracts I signed last night for Menu for Romance and A Case for Love, the two follow-up books to Stand-In Groom! Yes—I now have a three-book deal with Barbour. The series’ working title is either “Bonneterre Brides” or “Brides of Bonneterre.” Menu for Romance is due December 1, 2008, and A Case for Love is due July 1, 2009. As soon as I find out the tentative release dates, I’ll be sure to post that info here.

    Okay, I want to know why I get the character with green spewing out of his eyes?

    Everyone elses is a little easier on the eyes.

    Still excited for you, Kaye!

    Kaye, that is wonderful news. Mostly for you, but selfishly for me as well…I get to read all three. :) I can’t wait!

    Heartiest of congratulations! God is good!
