Phantom Warriors: Saber-tooth releases today at Ellora’s Cave. Rush out and buy your copy now. *ggg*
I’m always afraid to announce these things before I sign any contracts, BUT yesterday I was offered a three-book deal from TOR. It looks like they want my near-future paranormal suspense, along with two more books in the series. I’m genuinely floored and excited. This is the opportunity I’ve been hoping for. I just can’t believe it’s actually here. :-O

by Alison Kent November 1st, 2006 at 2:46 pmThank you, Beth.
I know you know what it’s like to take a chance on something new and have it pay off.

by Jordan November 1st, 2006 at 3:00 pmJordan, that’s stupendous, marvelous AMAZING NEWS!!!!!!!! I’m so excited for you! Oh oh and I *jumping up and down for you* I converted two new people to your books, they want more more! Oh yeah and I tripped over a Bacchus lookalike at Starbucks over the weekend. Kill me now, he was soooo gorgeous. Then my husband had to go and clear his throat behind me and interrupt my droolfest. Bacchus noticed my staring, the husband behind me, gave me a wicked grin, a wink and was gone…be still my heart…oh yeah and that husband growled at me…very Bacchuslike. We finished up the heated exchange at home.
by Shannon November 1st, 2006 at 4:05 pmShannon, LOL! Now that sounds like an eventful trip to the store. *ggg* Husbands have the strangest senses of humor. (wg)Thanks!

by jaq November 1st, 2006 at 4:31 pmCongrats, Jordan!! You’ve worked really hard for this. Well done!! Can’t wait for the books to hit the shelves.
by Shelley November 1st, 2006 at 4:41 pmLOL! Thank you, Jaq!
by Jordan November 1st, 2006 at 6:23 pmThanks Shelley! Unfortunately, everyone will be waiting for a while because the first book won’t release until fall 2008. :-O
by Jordan November 1st, 2006 at 6:24 pmI want to say it again. Woo Hoo!!!!!!!! You so deserve this!! The pub date being all the way in 2008 is pretty normal. I just turned in a book to Berkley that they scheduled for May 2008. Publishers buy a long way in advance!
by Jennifer Ashley November 1st, 2006 at 6:28 pmCongratulations, Jordan! When it comes to trick or treating, you got the big treat!
by Shannon Stacey November 1st, 2006 at 7:21 pmYou already know how I feel! *g* HUGE ((hugs))
by Sylvia Day November 1st, 2006 at 9:47 pmJennifer, Thank you! I knew it was going to be coming out ‘late’. I just wasn’t sure when. To be honest, I was happy to hear that they’ve already scheduled all three books. At least once they start coming out, they’ll be released every six months.
by Jordan November 1st, 2006 at 11:46 pmThanks Shannon, I think I did get quite a treat.
by Jordan November 1st, 2006 at 11:47 pmThanks Syl. (((hugs)))

by Jordan November 2nd, 2006 at 1:48 pmThanks Mandy!
by Jordan November 2nd, 2006 at 1:48 pmAWESOME!!!!!!!!! You see! Validation! All those early posts where you were following your muse, off the normal path, trusting your inner vision - and see - it PAYS OFF!!!! I can’t wait to read them! (oh yes, and ordering Saber-tooth as well!)
by Ursula November 2nd, 2006 at 6:31 pmJordan!
Obviously I’m a latecomer to all the decisions that’ve culminated in this deal, but they were obviously the right ones, and from your recent posts, exactly what you were looking for.
So a big hearty congratulations and an open-armed welcome to the paranormal world (which is so silly for me to say since my books aren’t even out yet). It sounds like Tor is getting behind these books to put you on an every six month schedule. I’m thrilled for you!
Best,
by Vicki Pettersson November 2nd, 2006 at 7:29 pmVicki
Huge Congrats, Jordan!! So thrilled for you.
by Sharon/Maya November 2nd, 2006 at 8:03 pmUrsula, Yes, it has.
Didn’t stop the road from being scary though.
*g*
by Jordan November 2nd, 2006 at 8:09 pmThanks Vicki!!! I’ll gladly take that welcome.
As for the decisions leading up to this point, I think every author has to ultimately decide what is going to make them happy. I’m just glad my gamble paid off. 
by Jordan November 2nd, 2006 at 8:10 pmThank you, Sharon.
by Jordan November 2nd, 2006 at 8:11 pmJordan!!!!!!!!!!! I’m sooooo excited for you. Congratulations! I’m doing a happy dance for you. Well deserved and totally exciting. Keep us updated!
