Thank you, Michelle & everyone!!!

This is REALLY embarrassing, but I had no idea books were already shipping out! The actual release date was supposed to be the 13th. Wow!! I have to say, I'm all nervous. And excited. And kinda shy. And nervous!! Constructive critique is healthy, I don't mind that, it helps one learn (and I am already used to it in My Other Writing Life)--but I am nervous for the 'this book sucked, I threw it against a wall' that's bound to come sometime. Eeeeek.

Yes, we just got the deals for Poland and Israel (we got Brazil and Romania a while ago). Avon has World English only, so the rest is coming piece by piece. I'm such a travel nut, I love the thought of my book going places I have not been to yet!
