Congratulations to all on a fabulously significant achievement. I'm looking forward to diving into Glimpses of Light.
ReplyDeleteI thoroughly enjoyed being one of the authors involved in Glimpses of Light, and reading the other contributions too. It's a great anthology. I must say the other two new releases look and sound fascinating too.
ReplyDeletewe will be featuring Glimpses of Light on ACBRA in May and hopefully Ellen's also
ReplyDeleteCongrats to everyone who has contributed to the books listed today! It's very exciting to start the year with a wide range of local new releases :)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to it :)
DeleteLove the covers on all three of these (though I guess I'm biased when it comes to the first two). Great cover Ellen :)
