Thank you Divia and Susan!!! I'll post on my website as soon as I have news, which probably won't be until late Jan/early Feb, since the pub industry basically shuts down over the Holidays.

[quote=""michellemoran""]Ellie, I'm so glad you liked it!!!! No, I don't think I'll be writing a sequel (although I would love to!). Sequels are notoriously difficult to sell, unless the first book has gone absolutely blockbuster. Instead, my next book will be Cleopatra's Daughter, and my agent and I are already planning for books four and five, which will probably be set either in Rome or the Middle Ages (my two great loves).[/quote]

So glad that you have a new book coming out! And I'm glad to hear that you may be making forays into Rome and the middle ages--they're fascinating periods.

What country do you plan to write about in the Middle Ages?

Possibly England, with a touch of France and Castile.

Please pardon me raising this thread from the dead, but I just finished The Heretic Queen and wanted to say how much I enjoyed it. I watched "The Ten Commandments" a lot as a child, and it was interesting to see that storyline from a completely different angle. (A very different angle.) The authors' notes on that topic were very interesting.

Oh, as an aside - the only library book I have ever dropped in the bath was one of the Babysitter's Club books. I had to do chores to pay my mom back for the fee she had to pay to the library.
