I love your books - and when I get <em>Not Another Bad Date</em> my collection will be nearly complete! It's hard for me to pick a favorite - the <em>See Jane Score</em> was the first book you wrote that I read - ironically, <em>Simply Irresistible</em> is my most recent acquisition.

I've been a fangirl of yours since I found DAISY'S BACK IN TOWN...and immediately went out and bought your entire back list! You have been an inspiration to me and my writing ever since. I'll be haunting the bookstores this weekend to pick up NOT ANOTHER BAD DATE! Rachel,

I'm glad you shared that you had stopped writing and buried your golden heart necklace. With some first sale stories, it sounds like those authors never let rejection get to them, and while I really admire that, I can really empathize with someonw that it does get to.

And Nick Allegrezza--ahhh. He was so much fun to write. Sorry Gennita, there are just some things I don't share or pass on. Don't even think of getting near my "worst synopsis ever written" crown or my Messier bobble head. Just a fair warning. Jill,

We always remember the pounding heart, if nothing else! And how mundane the whole day was compared to The Call. I think the most memorable moments are always when one's family and friends hear the news too and they can see that you are glowing with excitement. BTW, Rachel, I think I replaced you in Avon as the "worst synopsis" submitted ever, so that crown is now mine. Hi Rachel!
