It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

I am soooooooo pleased.

It was the WalMart news that tipped it, I think.

If I only had a brain...

Have you already thrashed out the dollar amount?

Betsy, nope. Being insanely well-behaved and leaving that to Jenn, whom I trust implicitly. Must call her, BTW.

Notice Ruth's comment about the "enormous" advance? I'll believe it when I see it.

But since "FFoSM" is the option book from the first contract, Jenn's already reassured me that "Matty" is basically an autmatic option sale. A series means at least three books....

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Woohooo, Deb! That's fantastic.

I do, however, have a quibble with her shortening the title to Serving Man. I thought she was referring to a cookbook for cannibals for one confused split second. Famous Flower is better.

Bev, she's 84 years old and she can shorten it any way she likes in emails to me. Truly. I also think of it as Famous Flower, but so long as the cover, promotional materials, etc have the proper title?

I reallyotrulyo don't mind.

As long as she's buying, with an "enormous advance?" Yup, I tend to agree with you.

For that, she could call it George.
