Awesome news abounds these days for writers! I keep reading/hearing about new books published, contracts, and new cover art!

You certainly covered a lot today! Anne's post was awesome.
Lots going on! I've been on a summer blogging break but am just checking in today before I continue my break.
Whoa. Gotta check out all this stuff. And Milo's cover rocks!
Will check out the Five Year Project first.
Thanks, Alex! Yes, Anne's post was awesome!!! I'm keeping it on saved for future re-reads.
Wow! Thanks, Barbara! That's so sweet of you to check in on your break! :) I'm sort of "breaking" over a few weeks, but it's more like I'm just blogging sporadically.
Thanks, Jay!
Thanks Tyrean for giving me and my book a shoutout. I will check the anthology details on their website. I will be in touch with you regarding some kind of a promotion for my book in late August (by then the book should be available online).
You're welcome, Rachna! I look forward to your e-mail. :)
Wow, you really had a lot of news. Pretty busy for July.
Newsy post, Tyrean. You've been busy. Wish I had time to enter Elizabeth's contest. Well, we'll see. Who needs sleep?
Thanks for sharing all the news. Excited that Rachna has a new book out.
Yes, and I don't think I caught all of it. It seems like the writing world is just flying by with activity.
Yes, that's how I feel at times too.
You're welcome! I'm excited for Rachna too. :)
Lots of great news and covers! Thanks for keeping me updated on things. :)
You're welcome!
Wow, lots happening. Congrats to all the authors with new books. I've known the majority of them for a long time in the blogsphere.
