    I interviewed Ms. Stampfel-Volpe on my blog, and she is a fantastic agent. Hope both of you nab her!

  17. Congratulations, Laura and Sheila. I loved both posts.

    Thank you Authoress and Joanna for a great contest.

    Although I am disappointed that I’m the only post not to receive a critique by The Secret Agent, and I was so looking forward to it, good or bad. :(

    I’m post 19.

  18. Trish! The comment is up--I think that the blogger leprechauns were out for St. Patty's day and gobbled yours up. Sorry about that!!

  19. Oh, tee hee. That’s so funny. So, it’s all my patron saint’s fault. My name is Patricia and my father was Irish. I bet he had something to do with it. He always was a practical joker, and as small as a leprechaun.

    Thanks you so much Joanna. You’re a good sport and your comments are really helpful. I’ll stop being a sooky la, la now and go to bed. It’s 3.35am here in Australia. Now, I’m a happy little vegemite. Skiperty doo dad, skiperty day………

    Thanks Authoress and Joanna and congrats again to the winners. :)

    Now, I can stop playing that song, "Why don't you like me?"
