Hi Rosemary! Hope you have a joyful and abundant Thanksgiving. :) Liz PS I have much to be thankful for, including my new deal with St. Martin's for Death Will Help You Leave Him.
I haven't been by in a while and thought I'd stop in and say hi. Hope you're having a relaxing Sunday. The Pats and Red Sox are playing, so I know I will.
A Demon Awaits will be out on October 14th. I'm excited for the release, the screenplay and the new book I started about a month ago.

Sorry about the delay - away with the fairies last week . Both Viggo and Jean Reno are actor's actors - very cool , great to watch . Viggo always seems to get to London the week after I've been there , but I will hopefully get to say Hi at some time . Looking forward to reading one of your books , got a pile of books to read but not enough time - if only they would pay me to read LOL
Hi, Ro! It was great spending time with you at ALA in Philadelphia. Thanks for all your hard work and organizational skills putting together the MWA NY booth. It was a rousing success. :) Hugs, Liz
