Amazing News!

Yesterday I announced the winners of the ARC giveaway!  Yay!  But what you don't know is that I had to tell those winners that they might not get an ARC right now.  I didn't go into details with them then for certain reasons, but after getting permission, I can give a few more details away today.

A publishing company has recently offered to publish ELEMENTAL.


Exciting, right?  

Absolutely!

I've been taking a few days to really make my decision, and I'll admit I haven't quite made up my mind yet.  Obviously, this is a huge decision to make.  It's flattering!  And amazing!  And so many other good and awesome things!  But it's still a big decision, especially when I've had my mind centered on self-publishing for so long now.

I just wanted to give all you, dear readers, a heads-up on what is going on.  Anyone who has offered to have me on their blog for the blog tour should expect an email some time today.  Obviously, if I accept the offer the blog tour will be cancelled and the publication date of June 21, 2011 no longer valid.  My mind is really scrambled right now with all the things I've had to consider, so yeah.  Yay!  Options are nice!  :)  But also very, very hard.  

Wish me luck as I decide what to do!  :)

  3. Best wishes and prayers sent your way, Emily! It's a big decision. Hmm, does this mean you may not be using your lovely cover? (sniff) It sure seems like a great opportunity, with more marketing, etc. ;o)

  5. Aww, thanks, everyone!!! *blush*

    I just wanted to answer Carol's question here because it's a good one. Yes, I will be able to keep my cover. I specifically asked this question and received a very positive answer. Apparently, I'm not the only one who believes it's totally gorgeous. :)

  9. AWESOME!!! Do it, do it, do it!! Make sure you see who owns all the rights and what that means for you, but geez, a publishing contract??? So cool! You can always self-publish your next book, but who knows when another publishing offer will pop up!

    *Sorry, I know it's a tough decision and I'm not trying to push you to do it without major consideration, but holy awesome!
