What an unexpected honor to have you s...Hi Yangsze,<br />What an unexpected honor to have you stop by my blog. I am really speechless. I am somewhat familiar with your forthcoming historical novel, The Ghost Bride, because your Literary Agent, Jenny Bent, posted your query letter as an example of what a truly great query letter should look like. I was so taken with it, that I must have read it 5 or 6 times. It was lyrical, compelling, and above all, mystical; it draws the reader in right away. <br /><br />Since your book is not available to purchase until August, I just entered the Goodreads giveaway and if I'm one of the 50 lucky winners, I will read it and then I'd love to do an interview with you about what inspired you to write The Ghost Bride. It certainly sounds like an incredible story! From one former Boston girl to another former Boston girl: Congratulations!!Sophie Schillerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09092528999711545149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6869397802884727336.post-91590941277232045212013-04-14T18:57:48.338-04:002013-04-14T18:57:48.338-04:00Love the pictures that you included!Love the pictures that you included!Yangszehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06739891543812219552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6869397802884727336.post-35319027790281191582013-04-14T15:03:58.243-04:002013-04-14T15:03:58.243-04:00Hi Richard,

Naturally I don't want to give away any spoilers, but I must warn the readers they will be on the edge of their seat!Sophie Schillerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09092528999711545149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6869397802884727336.post-73798854045320600512013-04-12T16:32:21.161-04:002013-04-12T16:32:21.161-04:00Thanks for taking part, Sophie.

The excerpt was fab: setting the scene of the great escape, but what next? I think my 2013 TBR pile has reached three stacks! ;)<br /><br />best<br />F Francine Howarthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02326542867876257042noreply@blogger.com
