Hi, Everyone,

I'm tickled that www.booksbywomen.org published the story of how my YA, SECRETS IN TRANSLATION, came about. It's fun knowing a language that no one else even suspects you understand....oh, the possibilities for an intriguing mystery!  :whistle

Congratz  on the publication, and what an interesting site. It's a little known marketing option to keep in mind. Thanks for mentioning it.

I hope it leads to happy sales.

So glad that Amy posted her congrats because I was travelling when you posted and I missed it. What a delightful article! You made me laugh at the long road to publication. "I was three." I hope the piece generates lots more interest in Secrets.

Congrats on the article! Nice submission idea, too. I read Secrets in Translation and found it delightful. It was like revisiting Italy. (Haven't been there since 1988.)

Tori
