She's home and doing well. <br /><br />The LoML didn't make it back to our home until almost 1 o'clock this morning. But I'm happy to say he's also alert and as chipper as ever. (If you know my husband, 'chipper' is not a normal condition, so 'as ever' means NOT.)<br /><br />And Jenny, Shelf Awareness is a good resource. Thanks for sharing the link. I didn't know about the ARC bit. Just what I need . . . more books in my TBR bookcase.Peg Brantleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04906858123466177508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3878752953637981313.post-89600504649781477312010-10-29T09:19:44.719-06:002010-10-29T09:19:44.719-06:00GREAT video, Peg--has something to say about stayi...GREAT video, Peg--has something to say about staying in there because you never know how your break will come. Out of nowhere, as the author says.<br /><br />By the way--she mentions Shelf Awareness as being instrumental in her getting a literary agent. Shelf Awareness is a daily e letter about all things books. I get free ARCs through it (just click and the publisher sends books to your door), plus news about everything that's going on in publishing. Here's a link if you or your readers want to sign up http://www.shelf-awareness.com/<br /><br />My very best to your MIL. Sounds like she will recover, but I know these wrinkles and shifts in the road can be draining. Hang in there--take care of yourself, too.jenny milchmanhttp://suspenseyourdisbelief.comnoreply@blogger.com
