Thank you – I have really been hoping this series would sell. We actually had the offer on Friday and were celebrating, when I started to wonder, "Why isn't Musetta coming downstairs like she usually does?" Details were hammered out on Monday/Tuesday, and my agent was hesitant to call, but I told her that I could use the distraction. My new publisher was very understanding about me not feeling I could share the news yesterday, though. A good sign, I hope!
