Welcome to the new Debutante Ball, and to a new class of Debs! We, the 2014 Debs, are so very pleased to meet you and pull back the curtain on our new space. For starters, if you’re a regular reader of this blog, you’ll notice we’ve done some remodeling of the old dance floor. Take a spin around and see! And, in case you missed it, you can learn more about the five authors of the 2014 Debutante Ball here.
News from the 2014 Debs
Lori Rader-Day, our Monday blogger, revealed the cover of The Black Hour, and placed a story in Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine for the first time!
Natalia Sylvester, who will be taking over Tuesdays, just finished revising and polishing her newest WIP in order to submit to her agent. Fingers crossed she loves the changes.
Susan Gloss, who will be posting on Wednesdays, got ARCs of Vintage this week and loves to stare at the book in her hands.
Heather Webb, Thursday’s Deb, sent off her little ones to their first day of school and now has writing time at normal waking hours for the first time ever.
Lisa Alber, our Friday girl, is excited that the relaunch of her website coincided with The Debutante Ball’s relaunch. A relative Luddite when it comes to social media, she’s enthused that she got her Facebook author page up and running, too. She’s official, and she’s ready to chat!
