Welcome to The Wild and Wonderful World of Books!! We Can't Live Without Them! Can You?
HERE, you'll find lots of books and authors you'll want on your TBR pile...with a fascinating discussion on both we invite you to join.
Allison, so fun to say we knew you when...and then watch you soar. Thanks for letting us share the excitement.
JoAnn and Pat, if you guys insist on bringing the confetti, I guess we'll have to hire that sweeper-upper. (The nice thing about e-land, it's very cheap.)
Allie and Sue-Ellen, it's so nice to see you both here.
I think we should begin holding interviews for that sweeper-upper ASAP. I have a couple Cajun hunks waiting in the wings who could use the work until I get around to writing their books. Also have an Irish guy who once went underground in the IRA who looks really good in his pub apron.
I've no doubt every writer here has loads of candidates. With so many bloggers representing so many books (and hunky males), choosing the perfect sweeper upper could be a long, time consuming task, but we'll all just have to make the sacrifice if we want a tidy blog. (And think of the scenery on sweep days!) LOL
Congrats, Allison! I'm so looking forward to reading your book -- it's my reward for switching classrooms this week (after that comment about teaching in my boys' former kindergarten classroom, I've been moved because of class sizes. At least I'm at the same school.)
So, when the last table is in place, I'm putting my feet up and preparing to be swept away by your story, Allison! Can't wait.
Wow! I disappear for two days and find this fabulous thread!
Thank you so much for all the kudos. I'm sure everyone here feels the same, there's something really special about your first book no matter what happens with the sales. To hit USAT with my first book is surreal. I'll be remembering this for a long time . . . like Pat Kay wrote in one of the newsletter, I want to savor and enjoy every step of the process.
Now I have to get writing.
Oh, and JoAnn, I have some ideas about a sweeper-upper . . . though your irish dude sounds heavenly. I have a thing for the Irish.

Throwing confetti in the air
Wahoo and way to go, Allison! Break open that bottle of champagne!
Allison, this is the most exciting news.
Congratulations and may this success continue with each release.
Huge contratulations, Allison! May this be the first of many bestseller list appearances!
I've dug out the the special occasion gold glitter confetti to toss up in the air for you! (Uh, we do have a blog sweeper-upper here, don't we?)

Congratulations, Allison! I picked up a copy today at the grocery store. Can't wait to read THE PREY!
