2/2009 Chapter News
First, let me wish everyone a happy Valentine’s Day, and good luck to all those who
finaled in WHRWA’s Emily.
One person we’re all pulling for is our very own JO ANNE BANKER. Jo Anne is proud to announce that she has finaled in the Emily contest in the Series Contemporary category with her newly completed This Child is Mine. This is Jo Anne’s first final at her WHRWA home chapter, making it a tasty treat. Sending you good karma, Jo Anne, and keeping our fingers crossed.
In release news, KERRELYN SPARKS is delighted that HarperCollins (Avon Books) is going to make the first two books in her Love at Stake series available as e-books. How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire and Vamps and the City were originally released in print only. More good news: Kerrelyn will be interviewed in the Writers on Writing section of the RWR, tentatively scheduled for the May issue which coincides perfectly with her next two releases, coming out back-to-back in April and May. For more information, please visit her website at www.kerrelynsparks.com.
We love sequels, and KIMBER FROST has learned that Barely Bewitched, the sequel to her debut novel, will be a September 2009 Berkley Release.
Our very own JOANN ROBISHEAUX (writing as CLAIRE SANDERS) has a booksigning scheduled for February 7th at Brazos Bookstore from 11:00 to 5:00. She’ll be signing her debut novel, a contemporary romance titled Fresh Start.
TERI THACKSTON also has a sequel. Congrats to Teri for another contract with Cerridwen Press for a new western romance called The Salvation of Captain Ben Chandler. It’s the sequel to her western that came out last year.
