Thanks to Alex Beecroft alex_beecroft to add me as a friend. I'm very interested in reading your cooming soon release with Linden Bay Romance. Any idea of when it will be out?

Oh wow! Thanks to you Elisa, for inviting me to :) I'm delighted to meet you, and ever so flattered that you made a special post for me! Thank you so much!

Captain's Surrender now has an official release date (hurray! ;) ) It's going to be out on the first of January. So really not long now at all. I hope you like it!

I *think* it's out in print and ebook simultaneously, but I'm not entirely sure about that.

Your site here looks like a treasure trove of romance, as well as being extremely pretty. So I'm very grateful indeed that you friended me. Thank you!

It's a pleasure to meet someone who seems to be so positive! So I will look forward for your book in January. Elisa

Thanks, Elisa! It's still all new to me, so I'm rather bursting with enthusiasm. I only hope it will last.

Also it's such a thrill to think that people might want to actually read my book, that I can't help squeeing ;)

Oh, I definetely want to read it! Elisa

I too am waiting for your debut (right?). I hope Lindenbay will release print at the same time. But not likely. When I love a story, I want it in good old fashion paperback. And with most M/M released in e-book first, I have been spending too much :(

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Yes, you are right. I often buy first the ebook and then the print book, I have no patience to wait for the print to arrive :-)

[alex-beecroft.livejournal.com]

Hello! Wow! Allow me to squee over the fact that you want to read it too :) Hurray! And thank you :) Yes it is my debut into the world of professional writing, and as you can tell, I'm ever so excited!

I had the impression that Linden Bay were going with both ebook and print together, but I can't now remember where I got that impression from. I have to admit I've been hoping I would get my hands on a print version in January too. I hadn't thought that it might be still up to 8 weeks away! Woe! I hope not :)

Hi!

My own experience is that LBR runs print as close as possible to ebook, but the process takes longer because of the extra steps -- formatting for print and the actual printing itself. It's quicker than it used to be; when Ransom came out it was a 3-month lag, now it's only a month or so.

Ciao Lee. Glad to see you again! How is going your moving to north? Elisa

It's so good not to be doing 800-mile round trips every few weeks--the first week here it seemed as though I was sleeping half of every day. But my office is finally painted (tropical blue instead of swamp green) and the computer is set up. I just hope someone falls in love with our old house the way we did... and I hope we can get some fast-growing trees planted here, in spring.

And now back to writing!

Good! I miss your books. Elisa

[alex-beecroft.livejournal.com]

Oh excellent! Thank you! I can probably wait a month or so, as long as I put that stuff on my nails to stop me biting them :)

[lee-rowan.livejournal.com]

You can ask about the print schedule for your book--if nothing else, it's good to know for your own promo activities.

[alex-beecroft.livejournal.com]

Yes, you're right, I should. Even on a need to know basis, I need to know!

Can I second that 'I'm glad you're back'? I'm glad you're back both for the prospect of more books from you, and just because it's nice to have you around again :)
