ARK HOUSE PRESS SAID YES!

Hi there!

Just received some good news from Ark House Press about the book.

"I am writing to say congratulations we would like to offer you a publishing contract with Ark House Press.
We have read over your book and it was great. So that is the good news, the not so good news is that we will have to wait until early 2009 for a release date.
We are completely filled up for 2008 and even early 2009 is a push but I think we will be able to make it."


God is faithful, Amen? I am so excited!

Thanks so much guys for all your support :)

Love always,

Coral

Hey guys!
(Above, me working on chapter 9, one Sunday afternoon, with the WHOLE house to myself!)

I have just officially completed chapter 9. I should be receiving draft 1 of chapter 10 back in the next few days. We should be ready for the publishers in the next few weeks.
I am going to invite a bunch of people out to dinner to help me celebrate when the book is finished. One Saturday night I think. Anyways, yoo hoo! See you later!

It's up to chapter 8 now!

Hey guys! Progress has reached draft 2 of chapter 8, and there's only 10 chapters :)

It's getting really exciting! There's even the possibility of me getting picked up by an American agent who specialises in my area of writing, who might eventually be able to get me contracts with companies such as Zondervan and all those big american companies.. Woo-hoo! Never thought that would happen!
