As soon as the text is approved, Deadly Danger goes to the printer. I would expect it to be available within a month. I will definitely post to this blog when it is available. Thanks for your interest. I think you'll enjoy the novel!

Many, sad to say, don't. They complain they can't afford to attend conventions, but refuse to look at the vast number of opportunities for making online acquaintances.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, the "no one buys books by unknown authors" is really a catch-22 as often as not, and it's not something a small publisher can do anything about. Writers need to understand that getting published isn't like it happens in the movies and on TV. Those mega-bestselling authors whose names are now household words worked their butts off to get that way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My experience is that readers are always on the lookout for new talent, which is why I counsel my people to always have at least one or two copies of their book(s) with them whenever they leave the house. A missed opportunity is a sale not made.</description><dc:creator>Elizabeth Burton</dc:creator><dc:date>2009-03-02T23:22:21Z</dc:date></item><item rdf:about="http://blog.ftlpublications.info/2008/10/20/countdown-to-action-receives-award.aspx#comment-1465792"><title>Comment on Countdown to Action! receives award</title><link>http://blog.ftlpublications.info/2008/10/20/countdown-to-action-receives-award.aspx#comment-1465792</link><description>Dear Joan,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congratulations.

Definitely looking forward to reading it and learn the pre-history to the Thunderbirds before they became the characters we know and love.
