For those of you who haven't heard (and I can't imagine there is anyone left who hasn't--since I've been shouting it from the rooftops since Friday), I'm one of the proud authors to make it to the Final Five of Dorchester Publishing's America's Next Best Celler Contest that has been ongoing via Text Novel.com since June of 2009!
This is HUGE for me and the other finalists who've toiled through votes, comments, round after round of eliminations, perfecting our cover copy, and waiting and praying and biting our nails and nervously twiddling our hair, and burning out the refresh key on our computers!
Now, the next step for us...MORE WAITING! LOL Yep, we still have another month of weekly eliminations by a carefully selected Dorchester romance reader panel of judges. They will eliminate one finalist per week (not counting the holiday weeks) until we are down to one winner. So, please keep your positive vibes flowing this way and stay tuned to the Dorchester Forum on 12/18 for the next announcement!
A sincere thank you to everyone who has helped me make it this far! Your kindness has meant the world to me! xoxo
