Hi Nancy :-) It's great meeting a new friend! Life can get pretty exciting and interesting as a writer! Wish me luck, WLangency in New York, has just accepted me as their client to represent me and sell my screenplay, STAR, based on my illustrated children's Christmas novel. It's the coolest thing. I actually have an agent now :-)
Congratulations Nancy on your novels. Thanks for the compliment on Elijah The Penguin. I have been so busy lately and now I am moving and packing. Eventually, I am going to write my first novel. I have written two novellas but no novels yet. I am going to challenge myself though...lol..have a good evening Nancy!
Thank you Nancy,
Yes, I started my company to keep the proceeds in the author's hands instead of the big publishers that keep all the money! LOL I am an author first and work to help new talent get their work out into the world. I have to charge a fee, but I give the author 100 books to begin with so they make their fee back immediately with a profit. I don't make much doing this but what little is left goes right back into the comapny to keep the doors open for more new talent. I am semi-retired so I'm not looking to get rich, just help authors who I believe are good enough to have a book on the market.

Nancy! Doh' LOL. your my friend on myspace! I knew you looked familar but it's a different picture. lol. My space icon is a colorful picture of Bill The Cat, sitting on a rock. It used to be a fairy holding a crystal ball. It sure is good seeing over here.
Talk to you soon,
Donna :)
Hi Nancy. It's great to meet you. I am currently working on a couple of picture books.
However I'm a little rusty in that department as I've been busy being a mom for the past nearly 30 yrs.
Hi Nancy,
And thank you for asking me to be your friend. Good luck on your YA fantasy novel.
I love all animals Scooter and Gryffindor...quite a difference in size there. lol
I see that you also liked Harry Potter.
Cheers

Hi Nancy, how nice to come home from the Novelists Inc. conference in New York and find your friend invite. Thanks! While in New York, I visited my editor at Candlewick Press near Boston and saw the artist's first sketches for my picture book due out in fall of 2009. I also turned in a fantasy YA novel on spec and am typing with my fingers crossed!

I still write YA myself; although my latest novel is an adult mystery/romantic suspense novel entitled THE INFERNO COLLECTION, published in hardcover by Five Star/Gale.
Thanx for adding me as a friend, Nancy. I'm techo-lacking, but I'll try to do what I should. I wrote Green Light Red Light, a YA novel that published in November. Check out my website with a blog for more info.
