Details, we need details - which publisher, what kind of Manuscript, etc., etc., etc.,<br /><br />Arwen & I got "the email," too, and I saw it before she did. I called her cell phone to tell her - she didn't answer, but emailed me that she was at work. I told her to go to the bathroom and call me because we'd just received an offer to contract Changing Times - LOL. Needless to say, she took a quick break and we "squealed" to each other! LOL :)Caihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04553363999931932450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588376429247025873.post-73509298768177379522010-11-15T10:14:07.423-05:002010-11-15T10:14:07.423-05:00Congratulations, Emma.

In the past 2 weeks I've gotten two contract offers on my first novel. My agent usually texts me. "You there?" I respond that I am. She texts, "May I call you?" This is usually late at night. Then once we've talked, I am up the rest of the night chanting, "OMG!" <br /><br />Having a dream come true is an indescribable moment. Enjoy every nuance of it...and write more!Vonnie Davis ~ Romance Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07360480832587538895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588376429247025873.post-55511733212787278272010-11-13T10:09:29.841-05:002010-11-13T10:09:29.841-05:00Woohoo, that's terrific, Emma! Congratulations...Woohoo, that's terrific, Emma! Congratulations!!! And it's only the beginning!<br /><br />Well, for me, it was a call from Deb Werksman at Sourcebooks, and I thought she was a telemarketer. I'd had so many, the first thing I said was, "Are you selling something?"<br /><br />LOL...we promptly started over and she bought Heart of the Wolf, and now I'm working on book 9 of the so far 10 contracted books in the series! :)Terry Spearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14788961423817944896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588376429247025873.post-50542823935707061182010-11-13T09:47:18.024-05:002010-11-13T09:47:18.024-05:00Congratulations Emma!

Shout it to the world and don't for even one second worry that others may think you're boasting. You have a lot to boast about.<br /><br />I was one of the lucky few to sell my book on the first try, and when I received that call, my entire body went numb--I couldn't get a complete sentence out, and scared the crap out of my husband because I was slapping my hand against my chest. The poor guy thought I was having a heart attack. LOL<br /><br />I'd love to hear more about your book.<br /><br />In the meantime, keep that glow for as long as you can.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12659478699744541765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588376429247025873.post-57944509687996572002010-11-13T07:41:11.996-05:002010-11-13T07:41:11.996-05:00Hey Emma,

May you revel in all the excitement, that first sale feeling is special!<br />As for my own 'call', I'm anticipating it rather than remembering it ;-) Hasn't happened yet, but I will keep on keeping on. <br />Whether it's the 'Call' or the 'Email', well done to you and all writers who seal the deal on their first manuscript.<br />By the way, I too call my manuscripts my babies, so cute! Hope you go all the way Emma!Nicola McKennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03345843540156517222noreply@blogger.com
