   Congratulations. And it's very thoughtful of you to let us know about the expected publishing date, and your name and nom de plume, so we can be on the lookout. I look forward to seeing your books.

   Congratulations are certainly in order. I look forward to your upcoming novels. Mysteries I like to, and one surrounding sewing is a new one for me.

   Oh, I'm so pleased you're back! Congratulations! I'm looking forward to reading your book when it comes out.

   In England, there is an expression called a "busman's holiday". The idea is that bus drivers often take Greyhound bus-like trips when they have vacation time, thus rarely leaving "bus world" for very long. I appreciate that you're giving us a "sewer's holiday" - when we're not sewing, now we can be reading about it!

   Thanks so much!

   :) Mary

   This is very exciting news!  I look forward to your first Sewing Circle Book in the series!  I love mysteries.  Your website and bio are interesting, I love Mary Higgins Clark books too.  Best wishes on your new series!  Mary

   I will be looking out for this! I love crime and mysteries (and sewing ofcourse) so I am sure I will enjoy it immensely.

   I'm looking forward to your new book. In fact, I'm going to try to find your previously published books, too. I LOVE mysteries. Enjoyed your website. Is that Harlan Coben in the picture with you that enabled you to speak to Agatha Christi? I am impressed. He's one of my all time favorites. You gotta be good if you are hanging with authors of his caliber.

   Good luck and best wishes for a long, prolific, and profitable career.

   Yes that is Harlan Coben in the picture on my website. He put me on the phone with Mary Higgins Clark who is my all-time favorite mystery writer. It was a moment I will not soon forget.  On a side note, I'm in the process of putting together a site where people can come to chat about sewing, books, life, whatever...all in preparation for my book. I'll post a link when the site is ready to go!  In the meantime, thanks for all the warm wishes!

   Shoot, I had a brain fart there. I MEANT to say Mary Higgins Clark! Sorry. Anyhow, I've bookmarked your site and am looking forward to its enhancement.

   Oh, I love cosy mysteries especially when they feature sewing, like Monica Ferris does! I will be looking forward to it! don't forget to post when it actually comes out and congratulations. Do you have other books out also and under what names.

   I have 3 boxes of mysteries stashed away for winter reading as the thought of being snowed in with less than 100 books to be read gives me the willies.
