said author is getting her ass handed to her on the web in various places and blogs. ouch i read even worse tweets and posts about it today.... she actually criticized a reader who bought it on Monday instead of Tuesday because the reader was having surgery. *sigh*

Um..."One more time people:now..cough..FRAKKING LISTEN. I've said it 1000 times in the past 2 wks, ONLINE sales DON'T COUNT. Don't help me at all"
^Um...shouldn't someone tell her to chill out? I get the whole sales thing, but I don't think this is the way to go about getting more readers and getting her books bought... :S

I know! Isn't that great? Seems like usually books get delayed, not moved up! She must be particularly awesome! But we already knew that, right?

Nat - Yeppers, though sadly, not to anyone who spells Natalie w/an H. Weird, huh?
And even though it's only 2 weeks earlier than the last known date, it's a full six weeks earlier than last year. I'm working hard on the first draft of book6 so I can move that up even earlier too. Fingers crossed!

I am so excited to hear this!!!! I have been waiting for the next book since I finished the last one LOL. Nothing seems as interesting to me as my favorite authors and they are all waiting on new releases.

Oh, look! We managed to 'out' a lurker! Hi, rosewomn! Thanks for stopping by ... and reading.
Now. Troublemakers... ;-) I mean, Nat. (Okay, I mean Mik, too. Okay, I mean all of you.)
Book6 is coming along and I'm finding myself tying up a *lot* of loose ends. Big changes, too. I need to noodle on it a bit, but if there's going to be more -- and I think another trio would make a nice round number -- then there will have to be a brand new story arc, and enough of it to justify Jo's direction/choices. So the answer is... there is no answer. I'm still watching and listening to what's going on in that world, which will determine the direction of the series, regardless of what I want. IMHO, the only thing worse than ending a beloved series is one that will Never. Die.
