Books, Blogs and Birthday Bonanza


Interesting post today - no, not this one - I must remember that this is a post as well

OK - interesting mail delivery today. Lots connected with writing and romances -

First, 3 different foreign editions - the Presents edition of my next book (the one after The Italian's Forced Bride which is still on sale now.) This is Part One of the Sicilian Brothers duo - Sicilian Husband, Blackmailed Bride (Guido's story) It's out in the UK in March (you can see that cover in the sidebar) and in America and Canada in April. So I suppose that means it's also in Australia in April.


Then there's the Italian edition of Bound By Blackmail - this shows how the books still have a long shelf-life even after they've finished their on-sale month in the big markets. B by B came out in the UK in 2005 and it's only just appearing in Italy.


Even older is the other book I receieved - >
This one dates from 2002. It's The Christmas Baby's Gift (which was reprinted in the Christmas By Request collection Christmas Kids and Kisses). This edition is a translation into Hungarian. It's getting to be a well-travelled book.

The other thing I got in the post today was a Newsletter from HMB Editorial for Modern/Presents telling me all about some new and interesting developments that are coming up for the line. I can't go public about all of them yet (watch this space) but here's something I can let you in on now.

There's a new blog in town and it's devoted entirely to Harlequin Presents novels. And as I'm assuming that most of you who are reading this blog are fans of Presents then this is for you.

It's a blog for the readers and the fans of Harlequin Presents written by some of the biggest fans of the line - the editors - and there will be plenty about the authors too. Right now Executive Editor Tessa Shapcott is blogging about the very special appeal of the Harlequin Presents line and there are lots of interesting posts coming up. So why not take a look at I(Heart)Presents and see what's going on?

Finally, tomorrow is February 9th - and it will be exactly a year since I started this blog on February 9th 2006. So to celebrate the blog's birthday, I'm having a Blog Birthday Bonanza. I'll tell you more about that in the next post.

The new I Love Harlequin blog is great, I just found it by accident and I'm very pleased that it's here for Presents fans and authors as well.

Celebrate in style! Your blog is great, inspiring and very entertaining. Cheers!
