" . . .apartment ....The judge didn't like <br />" . . .apartment . . .roughly the size of a Cheez-It"? That's a GREAT image! Too small even for a mouse. James Kilpatrick used to have a simile contest in his writing column--that would definitely have been a winner!! The rest of the excerpt is every bit as creative and I'm sure reflects the quality of the book as a whole. Congrats, Darynda and best of luck!Donna S.

I have just started reading Paranormal and have enjoyed all I have read so far, but SFR will always be my first love.

Thank you so much! <br /><br />@Kylie, I would have to say that the idea was so different, but you know what? I've never thought of the first person thing as being something that got New York's attention. Interesting. I'll have to think on it and get back to you. LOL.

Loved it!<br /><br />Your excerpt for FGOTR is very cool...do you think the fact you wrote this in first person was a factor in that it garnered so much interest from editors? Or just that you had this different idea for a book?<br /><br />I love Albuquerque! Many fond memories of a handful of days wander the heat-baked streets as a university student (on holiday) visiting the central square on market day and using the city as a launching point for a visit to see the Grand Canyon! Would love to revisit the place one day.<br /><br />All the best for your release, Darynda!Kylie Griffinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00469214884337936604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2835785233541439590.post-32821860098315645322011-01-31T21:48:55.467-08:002011-01-31T21:48:55.467-08:00Nice interview, Laurie and D!

When I read that excerpt, it reminded me of the judge in a contest who nailed you for "..Because my apartment was roughly the size of a Cheez-It.." I'll bet she's cringing now!
