Hell is freezing!
Guess what?
In response to query and 3 chapters, Avalon Books has requested not one, but two
(count them, 2) full MSS from me.
I am so accustomed to form rejects that I nearly soiled my knickers when I opened those babies!
I feel like it's rounding second base. Who knows? Sometimes you score!
I ask for (make that beg) your prayers, good wishes and cash donations to keep me
going until I hear from them again.

Great going Bill
I know a couple of people who have enjoyed being published by Avalon. They will treat you real good. Your books will be in libraries and bookstores across the country.
Again - Congratulations - success will make you all but wet your knickers

It's about time that one of us got somewhere. I was beginning to doubt that it could happen. Congratulations, and may the pigs soar long and far.

Congrats Bill. Keep checking your mail for the money. I think the mailman said it might be awhile, few years maybe.

Congrats, Bill--I think I just read in Publisher's Lunch or somewhere that Avalon had a very good year last year in terms of sales growth. Good luck--
