This is wonderful! And since I can't remember my password (and LiveJournal isn't being helpful today), this will have to be anonymous...but really, it's from kiscakat - who hasn't posted in half of forever, but did a happy dance around the house and then called EVERYONE she knew the night she found out that Thick as Thieves had an actual publishing date.


Why I should have an ARC:

I NEED the book.

I could cry, whine, and keen piteously about all the time that I have been waiting (years and years!), – but I have no desire to be told by a cherished author to “Stop whining” or “Go to bed.”

I might point out that I have collected 1st editions of all your books, but that might be admitting too much just how much I love these stories.

I suppose that I could mention that I am a teacher who happens to have been moved up (yet again!) with her class – which means that I have back (for one last year! – this makes four years now) the students that I taught for three previous years (and to whom I introduced this series – reading aloud from class sets) and that I would love to show them the ARC and tantalize them with it… but I’m above that. Really.

I could tell you just what I think of your stories: they are beautifully written, well crafted, multi-layered tales with nuance, foreshadowing, and vivid descriptive language that bring scenes and characters to life...and that I never tire of rereading (and find something new to think about every time), but I wouldn’t want to be accused of flattery.

So, I think that I’ll simply say: I have beautiful earrings.

okay, but what I want to know is...would another Legottolia entry would count? And could we convince Checkers to make that her entry?
