How do I feel today? I want to tell the story but I can't, not yet.

Thank you again for all your comments here, at Yahoo, and in your private emails. I'm truly blessed by the outpouring of support and encouragement from so many of you. The first three chapters of Grace will be out to my agent by Monday. Then off to publishers...cross your fingers for me ;-).
And yes, going to think about how to get VHers out. I know many of you suggested going the ebook route, but the more popular ebook publishers are focusing on erotica right now, and I don't think VHers would fit in their program.
Do you know the toughest part? Taking down that beautiful cover from the website and blog, which I'll have to find time to do this weekend. I wonder whether I can buy the cover from Harlequin/MIRA? LOL. Think they'll give it to me? I have the cover flats for a book that isn't coming out...I feel so sad looking at them, like leftover clothing from the ex-boyfriend. Nice shiny covers...sob.
Bear with me while I learn. The first button likes the POST. The second button likes the BLOG site. Please help me by "liking" me. Thanks!

Jenn,
Do you think you can go back to Avon? Maybe you can get Vhis, Vher, and Vone in one book to sell. I think it will work out. Hugs
What I want to know is--was it you who did the reverse Bel-Air? And if so, then good for you.
well... remember, you didn't like the green of the cover, thought it wouldn't sell well... so yea, maybe it won't be green next time and will sell better than it would have? (ok so glass half full is hard for me, im tryin! :)
OK - so I was sold on the cover ages ago, but... ya know, doesn't look like Jed. ;) Sending extra hugs to you, Jenn.
Sara,
VHis is still Mira's, so packaging all three isn't going to work.

Anonymous,
Well, sometimes a reverse Bel-Air is all you can do.

Kim and Mo,
LOL. Yes, I did say about the green, didn't I? Well, if I get to choose the next cover, it won't be green ;-).
Jenn,
Just have faith that everything will work out. You are a great author, I'm sure your agent will be able to find a home for both Grace's story and VHers.
xoxo
Jenn,
Ditto to what Casee said.
I don't think Mira did themselves any favors by only publishing the first book of an announced trilogy. Lots of upset readers.
Mec,
I'll figure something out for virtually Hers and Virtually One.
Cerridwen Press would be a good place to try for the ebook. They have published Lisa Marie Rice writing under the name of Elizabeth Jennings.
