Pick up your copy today and then head over to my website www.ejamie.net for a great contest to celebrate the new release!
I had always said that I wanted to work Strawberry Wine into an original fic and of course got the expected derogatory remarks that the only way I would ever be published would be if I self-published which if any of you have followed my career this past year and a half, you'll know that not only have I been published in short, novella and novel form by legitimate publishing companies, I've enjoyed a fulltime freelance career that has allowed me to live my dream of working from home.
So, about Strawberry Wine, after re-working it a bit, making it contemporary instead of sci-fi and bumping up the action for Harlequin's Intrigue line, I sent out a query to Harlequin last month and got a reply a few weeks later that they loved the plot and want to see the full manuscript!
Now I'm busy fleshing it out bit more before I send it off and this is not a gurantee that they will publish the final product but this is a huge vindication for me and should be for you writers that are true to the stories you want to tell and don't cater to the opnions of the snobby cows as well. My foot is in the door for a story that those who consider themselves the only ones who know what a 'good' fanfic is (as if there is a standard for such a thing) constantly trashed. So trust me, the snobby cows on LJ are no barometer on what 'good fanfic' is. Their sole purpose is to mock, not critque, not help. Write the story YOU want to write. Stick to YOUR passion and don't let the snobby cows here on LJ tell you they know better than you what good fiction is.
A snobby cow vs one of the biggest romance publishers in the world?
I think I'll trust Harlequin's opinion, thanks.

2) A copy of Kiss And Tell by Suzanne Brockman: From New York Times bestselling author Suzanne Brockmann comes a funny, feisty, romantic tale about childhood rivals who discover the mystery of grown-up love. When Leila Hunt is swept off her feet by a ninja at a New Year's Eve costume party, she has no idea who the masked man is—but after he disappears into the night, she’s determined to find him. When the clock struck twelve, what began as a friendly New Year's greeting quickly became the most unforgettable kiss Leila had ever experienced with anyone—including her absent boyfriend. But of all the possible suspects, Leila hardly imagines that the ninja is the same man who’s teased, tormented—and secretly intrigued her—since childhood. Marshall Devlin is finally ready to face the terrifying truth: he’s in love with his best friend’s sister, and has been for years. There’s just one complication: Leila didn't know he was her ninja. To win her, Marsh will have to woo her. But can he make Leila forget their decades of verbal sparring in time to stop her from making the biggest mistake of her life?
