Diane found me through the Tenners, which is a group of about 60 novelists whose books will be debuting (if that’s a word) in 2010.  The Tenners have contests and giveaways and fun weekly features, like the Monday Top 10 List and (my favorite) Tenner Tell-All, which I think is on Wednesdays.  A few weeks ago, people talked about their Most Embarrassing Moments on the Road to Publication, and while reading them, I cracked up for about 10 minutes straight.  It’s clear that these people are, you know, writers, and it’s fun to get to know them virtually and get a sense of the books we’ll all be reading next year. 

So–lots of reading for you!  Enjoy!  And hey, thanks for all the kudos about the website.  It really means a lot.  Stay tuned for tales about my resarch trip to The Great Smoky Mountains this weekend, and how there will now be elk in my story, come heckle or high water.
