Kudos and congrats!

Taking time out to uncork some virtual champagne for all the Knight Agency authors who are currently rocking out!  For one, I just learned this morning that Rachel Caine's GHOST TOWN (the 9th Morganville Vampires novel) is currently #1 on Waterstones.com.  Yesterday we discovered it was also #5 B&N YA Hardcover Bestseller list, #26 BGI overall hardcover bestseller list and #5 BGI YA hardcover bestseller list here in the states.

Kudos too to Patti O'Shea, whose EDGE OF DAWN has just won the 2010 Aspen Gold Award for Best Paranormal.

And last, but not least, congratulations to all the fabulous TKA authors who've been nominated for Romantic Times Awards!
