Guess what showed up on my front porch today? The author copies of my next novel, SONG OF THE NILE! I was so excited I had to make a pyramid of them, in keeping with my Egyptian themes. I felt like, for tradition’s sake, I ought to have run out the front door and bragged to my neighbors Calvin and Joy, but as this is my second historical fiction novel this year they might think I should be blase about it. I’m not!
Look. Shiny!

AWESOME!!!! Congrats! Does this mean that its close to October 7-12th when Amazon says I will get mine??
Yes! My guess is that you might get it even sooner than that π And remember, if you review my book you can win a Nook!
Congratulations!!! I think a second HF novel in a year is something to crow about! If it were me, I’d be telling whoever would listen π
I will do a happy dance if I get it early!!
They are so pretty and shiny. I was wondering, have you ever been to egypt?
Not yet but I plan to go this year!
It’s seriously the most amazing and beautiful place in the world. I was lucky enough to study abroad at the American University in Cairo for 2 months. My uncle lives in Alexandria so I also got to spend a month traveling around with him. It was amazing.
If you need any tips on places to stay or eat, let me know!
Oh, shiny indeed. Me wants. π
I was thinking of you just yesterday while reading a biography of Agrippina. I’d love to know why the German soldiers loved Germanicus so much or were so loyal to the Romans that they were retained as bodyguards above and beyond the praetorian guard. What’s that about?
Wow, Shiny indeed! An a pyramid to the sun.
I can’t wait to get mine too! Meanwhile, the ladies at Easton have been hounding Alice for info on Song of Nile.
It is ok to brag …. you worked hard on achieving it! Nasty bragging is not and never has been your style. Is it OK if I brag about you? Ha …
Congratulations.
Moms get to brag whenever they want! *smooch*
