Congratulations to all the nominees!
And a huge congrats to my friend, Mary Connealy. I'm so excited for her I can hardly stand it!
I LOVED Calico Canyon. It was easily the best book I read all last year.
I like seeing whose names I recognize. :) I really want to read the book by Lisa Samson, as she's the main speaker in an upcoming writer's conference I'm attending (in about a month!!!). I've heard amazing things about her books.
Yep, Erica, it was very exciting to hear Mary's name called. She was tickled, but very humble.
Koala Bear friend, Lisa is an incredible author. I really liked Quaker Summer, Song Bird, The Church Ladies, and her latest, The Passion of Mary-Margaret. I hope you get to read a few of her books before your conference. It sounds like a great opportunity.
I adore you, Carla!
Thanks!

I'm rootin' for you, Alice!
Carla,
Thanks for rooting for me. However, the competition is rough! Both books RAIN SONG is up against sound terrific!
My second novel is out, dear Carla! I want your input on HOW SWEET IT IS.
Thanks!
Alice
Carla,
Are you going to read my second novel, How Sweet It Is? Hope so!
Hey, Alice! Hello, again. What a coincidence--I finished How Sweet It Is this morning. Wonderful!!! I'm planning on doing a review later this week.
