What’s in the Box? (Hint: ARCs of Left to Chance!)

April 24, 2017 8 Comments

The final corrections/changes for Left to Chance have gone off to my editor at St. Martin’s Press. When I read through the pages, I was reunited with Teddi and the cast of characters I’d left behind, and I was relieved to find out — I still loved them! Left to Chance has been called a “heart healing” story and in such a tumultuous time in our country, who couldn’t use that, right?

To be honest, during the last 100 pages, I forgot I was supposed to be looking for mistakes and I just read! That’s good, right? Right! It meant, of course, that I had to do it all again, which I’d have done anyway. (I go through my pages at least twice.)

When the pages first arrived, I photographed my desk, and many people on social media commented on how neat the desk was. Believe me, those who know me well were rolling their eyes.

Behold.

What was once a decorative table-turned-desk is now my desk/laundry room. Feel better about your own desk now? That’s what I’m here for.

And just after I sent off the pages via FedEx, this happened…

I know, right? Here’s a better view:

I’ll be back later this week with news of a giveaway — and if you remember — I hosted an ARC giveaway here before I even had them, and that one is being mailed out today!

This is an exciting time in authorland. In some ways it feels like November is forever from now. In other ways it feels like it’s tomorrow. There’s a lot to do and a lot to plan and much support to build for Left to Chance.

Thank you for coming along for the ride—again!

    Good morning! Here I am in my pyjamas, drinking my tea while watching you open that box. I got a little tear in my eye. How exciting for you! And inspiring for me, because someday I hope to be opening a box, too. 🙂
    I found your blog a couple of months ago, and checked The Glass Wives out of my library and loved it. I have The Good Neighbor on reserve to check out next (somebody else gas it checked out, so I’m waiting in line.) Looking forward to Left to Chance. I hope you have a lovely day. 🙂

    Amy…Thanks for sharing the unveiling of your new book ‘baby’. She is beautiful. Have read your first two books and can’t wait to read this one. Hope to be lucky enough to be opening a box of ARCs myself one day.

    Congrats!!

    Yes, congratulations! I’m inspired by your honest excitement and sharing the process. I went to your workshop on April 8 in Philadelphia. Your suggestions for social media were very helpful. I’m hoping to follow your journey. Two of the agents requested more info about my book and I sent it out yesterday. Fingers crossed. I’m just starting an author’s Facebook page @eileensanchezwriter and a website eileensanchez.com , if you visit it please ‘like’ me or send a comment. I welcome any advice.
