Yes, my tenure at The Debutante Ball has, sadly, come to an end. It's time for me to hang up the party dress...
And...*bites knuckle*...the tiara...
(The previous photos are representations of what I wore to the Ball every Friday, courtesy of MorgueFile. My hair isn't really brown.)
Click here to read my last *sobs* post. (WARNING: Because I wrote it, it contains a gratuitous "arse.")
But enough this melancholy, bittersweet leaving stuff and nonsense!
Of course I will miss the Ball, but my life will go on.
(Consider yourself blessed that I'm not including a clip of Celine Dion singing at this juncture. Or worse, singing it myself.)
And so will the Ball, with a new crop of extremely lovely writers who are more than capable of keeping you entertained over there.
Me? I will be keeping myself busy with stuff like (can I get a drum roll?) this:
Ta-da! My local B&N set out a display of In a Fix early. I stumbled across it yesterday. So there you have it--the first sighting of my book in wild!
I'm...wow, I'm just...well, it appears I'm speechless. But very, very happy. :D
What's making you happy these days?

Also, never surrender the tiara.

world, look out for ciel! and mark! and billy! and linda!
Yay, You! You look stunning behind a table filled with your books!
I mentioned you in my post today on Talli Roland's blog :)
Yay! Look at you with your books! Isn't it wonderful? And a surprise early appearance is always a delight! Best of luck at your upcoming author events!
Yea! You look perfect!
If it helps I'll try to always picture you in a ball gown and tiara with a cocktail in your hand - actually that last requires surprisingly little imaginative effort.
Wow, wow, WOW! How can you stand it?! Soooo exciting to see your book in an actual bookstore! I reckon I'm gonna have to pay a visit to B&N this weekend. And I still picture you with a cigar...
OMG!!!!! The sighting is so exciting and I'm going to *sob* miss you at the ball.
How cool to see your book out in the wild like that - especially when you weren't expecting it! What fun!

Your book looks wild in the wild. Which is good. Cause your book is wild. I ordered it and I can't wait to hold it in my hands so I can reread it as often as I like. Or, at least, until book 2 comes out.
Love the tiara! And how wonderful to see your books in display in a shop!
finishing my latest draft of my WIP
Congratulations! You look awesome behind the table.
Congratulations. Continued success.
