Glory Be To God

It's 1:30 in the morning and I have to be up by 7:00am. I just wanted to let you know that Bride was awarded the Christy for Best Romance of the Year. I'll give you all the details next week, but for now, here she is.



Glory be to God.

I'm SO happy for you!! You've gone from lost luggage to having a Christy to haul home. You'd better pack it in your carry-on bag.

Big congrats!!!

Big giant congrats to you (and to Dave) for the Christy honor. Bride is the only romance novel I've read in years (maybe ever) and I thought it was fabulous. So I'm not at all surprised and simply thrilled for you. Enjoy!

Woo-hoo! I just *knew* it would win. Way to go...awesome accomplishment for your first book. I know you're humbled and proud as a peacock. And Dave's first acquisition too! He's got the winners posted on his blog:

Faith in Fiction

4/7 were BHP authors. Rigged judges? LOL! Nah, just awesome writing coming from that house.

Congratulations, Dee and Dave!

I'm thrilled for you! My only regret is that I didn't stay in Houston one month longer so I could be there to celebrate with you!

A double latte at Taft on me... :)

Hi, everyone. Just in from a long (but very fun) day. I'm up again first thing in the morning, but just had to log on before I went to bed.

Thank you so, so much for all your sweet comments. And y'all are right on all counts. I'm excited and amazed and humbled and I don't know what all. Dave is getting lots of attention and is so cute when he gets all shy.

I'll try and check in tomorrow night if I can. Greg got in town today and it is sooooo great to have him here with me now. He met all the Bethany House folks tonight at dinner. It was really special.

See ya.
