YIEE! So glad your story had a happy ending. NY publishing folks are frequently on the move – be prepared to weather change and persevere.

Jennifer, I feel your pain! My editor left the week my first book’s manuscript was due. I was an editorial orphan! The book was copyedited, but that was it. It all worked out, though. I hope the rest of the process goes smoothly for you.

It was hard to change gears, since the new editor wanted something a bit different. But the new editor is fabulous, and I got very lucky. Sometimes a mid-book or just-after-publication change can be disastrous. This is a good reminder, though, that editors and publicists move around a lot.

Thanks for your kind comments, Patricia. Publishing and promotion changes are happening fast, so it’s great to be able to share among writers. Thanks for spreading the word!

While the mommy stuff no longer applies for me, your guidelines apply to all writers – rugrats running or not. Also checked out your website and will be recommending it to people I know who do still have all the starlight challenges.
Also posted it to my Facebook page. Thanks for doing this.
