And from one of my biggest heroes of all time, no less: Peter S. Beagle. It was the first thing I saw this morning, and I promptly burst into tears before running through the house shouting incoherently everyone. I think that I made everyone terrified the cat had died....
"HAVEMERCY is an absolute charmer of a book: at once exciting, romantic (in the best, oldest sense of the word), and funny, which I know from my own experience is the trickiest parlay to pull off. The most remarkable thing of all is that it's a first novel. You couldn't tell it from the smoothness and skill with which these two young writers have created their tone, their narrative voices, and their world. It's one hell of a beginning!"

Congratulations! My god, you'd better be careful with yourself or you're likely to launch into orbit! So pleased for you, really. Enjoy and scream and carry on. I wanna hear you from here. :)

That's terrific, Jaida! What a lovely blurb, too.
By the way, I saw the writeup in the Victoria Times Colonist, and was so thrilled for both of you - way to go!

Awwwww.

I'm sorry. I just feel this happy flush when I see people get excited. Maybe I'm reminded of my boyfriend meeting George R.R. Martin.

Anyway, congrats. Don't mind the sloppy kiss on the way out; that just me thinking of my boyfriend again. :D
