Oh gosh, that's really wonderful, Deb. And she was probably blown away by your writing to her, too.
You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

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

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Whoa, that's some high quality recommending there!!!
I have to find the copy of Plainsong I just got used from Amazon as well. It's, I'm ashamed to say, lost somewhere in my bedroom. I put it down somewhere, and now I can't find it.
After I finish War of the Flowers, I'm doing a serious book hunt...

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Hee! And I get to hear Tad read WotF, because we're doing that reading together. I'll be posting that one up in about ten days,

That's really something, Deb. A total bouquet.

If I only had a brain...
If it were me, I'd frame that letter or sleep with it under my pillow or possibly have it bronzed. Lovely.

I think what I want to do is, rather than have St. Martins send her a copy, I'll send her one out of my own stash (once they arrive here).
But I'm also going to forward the correspondence to Ruth. I got this back this morning, from Professor Heller (part of a longer email):
I do encourage you to re-issue Plainsong, and I will do my part to promote your new series...I can't wait to get started on it!
Civilised, I call it.

Lovely, I call it. Just like Betsy.

Nic's talking about doing a limited POD run of "Plainsong". I'm wondering if he might not be right. But part of me wants to wait and see how the series does; if the publisher gets enough "Hey! This book, that you printed reviews of on the back! Where is it?" feedback, they may want it back. In which case, well.....heheheheh.

Raises hand.
I'd be good for a POD copy. IJS.
