Book update
So much is happening with the book now since we were freed to work on this ourselves. The cover is just about done and absolutely beautiful. The ISBN is assigned. The book is with a reader for final edits and corrections. The printer is all lined up and just waiting for the files to prepare them for the first book to come off the press. Once that's approved, we're all set to go. We're still aiming for a June 15 publication date.

Report from the agent
As I had expected, it was a thanks, your writing is very nice, etc, etc, etc, but your book is not what we are looking for right now.
That's OK. I was almost disappointed when it looked like we were not going to be able to do this ourselves.
Now, we can. We have found a printer. We are doing final edits and revisions because we want this to be the best book it can possibly be.
We are on track to have our book out sometime in the first part of June.

Do you Twitter? Do you know how to retweet? Do you have tweeple?
If all of this sounds like gibberish to you, you have not been introduced to Twitter, a networking phenomenon.
I admit, when I first joined Twitter, I didn't get it. At all. Now, I have 460 followers and counting. I have found leads for writing and have made contacts that I would not have had the opportunity for without this vehicle.
Will it be useful? Who knows. It could and that is the intrigue. It's also lots of fun.
And while we are forming our marketing plan for Chalet Publishers, Facebook and Twitter are definitely going to be a big part of that.
You must check it out. If you join, follow me and we can tweet each other.
