(Lucy says, "Cool beans, huh?") Annabelle's Courtship spent 3 weeks on the Top 10 Bestsellers list for Samhain Publishing. (It will be releases as a tradesize paperback in Sept 08 and will be available at all major - and not so major - bookstores.) Debbie Macomber once told Lucy that she'd know her books were really getting popular when they showed up on Doubleday's flyers or ads for new members. Well, Deal With This will be an alternate selection for Doubleday and Rhapsody Book Clubs. So, she's feeling pretty great. LOL Lucy's two foreign exchange students have returned from Korea for their second year to stay with her family. Which makes that 5 teenagers in Lucy's house. (Well, six if you count her nephew currently living with her.) If you all were wondering why you don't see her online as often as you used to...that sort of explains it, no? The first book in The Goddard Project series, Satisfaction Guaranteed, spent three weeks on Nielson Bookscan's National Bestseller's List. Connected to Ready, Willing & And Able, it got some great reviews and neat reader reaction (thank you everyone who took the time to write or email). Lucy's hoping to have 5 to 7 books in this series. Book Trailer for Moon Awakening won the Cameo Award for Fantasy Trailer.
