Amazonia -- Book 2 of Descendants of Earth has a home!

And this was utterly painless! It helps to have a really, really, really good editor working with you!

Amazonia is book two my Descendants of Earth series. Readers met Michael La Rosa in book 1, Jason's Accord. Initally Michael was just a secondary character, nothing special and there to move the story along. Well one of my two editors at eXtasy (I adore both of them), Bea, felt there was something more to Michael and she egged me on to do his story. So for my 2008 Nano Write I did Michael's story -- Amazonia. With some fine tuning the past few weeks I took a deep breath and submitted it on Monday night to eXtasy....and woke up the next morning to a contract for it! My editor liked the original story, likes to keep series together and liked the synopsis. I'm thrilled! Amazonia will be available at eXtasy Books at www.Extasy.com

I like this story - it was a stretch for me and it felt good to take myself to another level.
