GOT TAGGED BY CLAUDIA HARBAUGH - AUTHOR IN THE 7X7 CHALLENGE--I POST SEVEN SENTENCES FROM THE SEVENTH PAGE OF MY CURRENT WIP AND TAG SEVEN FRIENDS TO DO THE SAME. SO HERE GOES. THIS IS FROM JASPER'S BOOK (STILL UNTITLED, BUT I'M FEELING LIKE IT NEEDS THE WORD SCANDAL OR SCOUNDREL IN IT--IDEAS, ANYONE?)

LET'S SEE WHAT YOU'VE GOT REGINA SIROIS LISA SWINTON D.G. RAMPTON - JANE AUSTEN INSPIRED ROMANTIC FICTION JANETTE RALLISON KIRSTEN JOY HOBBS ANITA VALLE ART REBECCA BELLISTON. I'M READY TO BE INSPIRED!

“BESIDES, I’D RATHER RISK THE WOLVES IN THE GREEN ROOM THAN FETCH AND CARRY FOR HER MIGHTINESS, MUTILATING MY FINGERS WITH HER EVERLASTING SEWING! PLEASE, PETER. I WON’T TELL A SOUL YOU’VE HELPED ME.”
“NOT A CHANCE,” HE SAID, MOVING AWAY FROM HER LIKE SHE’D CONFESSED TO A DISEASE. “SHE’LL HAVE YOUR HEAD. AND MR. ROLLINS WILL—”
“NOT IF I BRING DOWN THE HOUSE,” LAURA SAID. “I WILL, PETER. YOU KNOW I CAN. PLEASE.”

Jaima, I am in serious withdrawal, having finished Incognita late last night. Read Fair Child a few days ago. I don't mean to be rude, but please, please, PLEASE hurry along with your next installment! :-) The stories are masterpieces, and I thank you for entertaining me so!

I'm so glad you enjoyed reading it! Thanks for letting me know. Courting Scandal is out with beta readers again now that I'm done the second draft and will be published sometime this fall—if you are interested in receiving a digital ARC let me know!

I'm not sure what a digital ARC is - I'm assuming it's an advance copy of your story? If so, I am MOST interested!

Hi, Jaima. I'm not sure if I remembered to hit "submit" when I responded to you. If you received my former response, please forgive my repeat comment. I would most definitely love to receive a digital ARC - assuming that's an advanced copy of your book. I'm new to this - you've probably picked up on my enthusiasm & excitement! And as I'm sure you are a very busy lady, I hope I do not appear overly persistent in sending what might be a second reply. Thanks again for your wonderful stories.

Yes, I got it. Sorry for the delayed response! I've been away from the computer for a few days--took the children to visit my grandfather and my great aunt. And you got it right, an ARC is an advance copy. I'm happy to send you one. Your enthusiasm is such a compliment! Thank you! Shoot me your email address via the contact tab on the blog and I'll make sure to send one your way once they are ready--around September. I'm still gathering second-round beta reader feedback, then will revise once more and send it away for copy editing. And talk to my designer about a cover. That's the part that I can't wait for!
