I hope the good news keeps flowing.
The Great Write Way, Act Three: Where's the gun?
A place for Buffistas to discuss, beta and otherwise deal and dish on their non-fan fiction projects.
Good news~ma for everyone! This is really fantastic!
I'm floating away like you would not believe. Lovely agent just forwarded me the official offer and there was this one line from the editor:
"My readers loved this and [publisher] thought it sounded very good. We’d like to build a relationship with her--I think she’d have a lot of freedom here too, to write what she wants to write."
OMG, that made me just absolutely tear up, because it's not that this editor likes this book-- she likes my WRITING and that is a gift above most others.

So awesome, Barb. WHEEEE! And I really believe that about St. Martin's, too. Excellent news!

Great to hear, really! I hope I have a similar story soon.
That's fantastic!

You know, I do too-- St. Martin's has always been a house I'd love to work with, for a lot of reasons, that being a major one. It's always seemed as if they're one of the houses who's always on the cutting edge and is less afraid of taking a risk.
Oh, Barb! That is fabulous!
Also? I am a HUGE dorkalopagus. I've got the Glee cast version of "Don't Stop Believin'" on replay and I'm singing along with a huge grin on my face.
I think you are entitled.
