Howdy gang! Clearing up a few queries: MARRIAGE MATERIAL is out now, and only this month. From the end of July you can only buy it online. You can grab a copy of at any Big W, Kmart, Target or Borders, plus from some Coles, Woolies and newsagents. Some other retailers do sell HM&Bs as well but I couldn't tell you which.

For a lookie at the baby blue cover, check out home page on my website. They only cost around $5.00 too!

Hope you enjoy!

This is great news!! Hopefully I can actually get my hands on a copy of your book this time, as I lucked out on the first one, dammit!

Had a read of the excerpt - you're so funny! I love your sense of humour. Did you know there is a show on TV now that has a similar idea to your book? I can't think of the name but the main female character has the same job. Quite bizarre how these things happen!

I'll let you know how I go finding a copy of your book.
Can't wait!

Wendy, how freaky is that! It's called Miss Match or something like that. There is also a Julianne Moore, Pierce Brosnan movie coming out aout warring divorce lawyers (and I could even imagine them playing the leads in my book too!!!). Amazing how these trends appear from nowhere considering I wrote my book a couple of years ago!

Hope you enjoy

I read your book yesterday Ally, and it is so good. I actually think its better than your first one. Much stronger. Well done you!

Thanks Timna! So nice to hear. Nothing better than improving too. Hope that continues!

Yay for Ally!  My foot is jiggling like mad.  I'm off to the shops for my copy!

I got my copy, woo hoo! $3.86 from Kmart! Hopefully I'll get to read it tonight. So excited!!
Lotsalub,
Wendy

Yay Wendy and Lou! Hope you enjoy!

Ally

Bought your book, Al... If you keep going like this, I will have to buy a new book shelf just to put them all in.

Ally, I've had a great time this week showing off your book to everyone and saying, I know the person who wrote this!! It was a really fun read! I think it was the first book I've read that hasn't made me feel stressed(as I usually read 3 inch thick trilogies with dark, twisted plots and characters!!!)

So, when can we expect the next one? That question is probably as much of a pain in the neck as," When are you having another baby?" (which is the question I always get asked!) Do you think you'll have a go at the fantasy genre sometime? I have a few ideas on the go now, and they've all pretty much manifested themelves into children's animation filmscripts!! I guess we write what stirs our own hearts!
Onwards and upwards,
Lotsalub,
Wendy

Wendy, so glad you enjoyed!!!! And that my book gave you a nice de-stress. I can't ask for a better compliment! Next comes MARRIAGE MAKE-OVER in October and it is my fave so far! Shall keep you posted.

Deb, you go ahead and buy those book shelves.... Hee hahahahaha!

Ally

Ally, you've shown me that Romance books can be fun to read. Yep, I've gotten through Marriage Material (my 1st adult reading of any M&B book). Was a great read, basically did it in two sittings (yesterday & today). I liked the lift and its personality (along with the use of Tim Tams *lol*)

Bravo!

Thanks Nicky! Glad you enjoyed!!!! Gotta sneak those Tim-Tams in wherever I can...

Ally

Hey Ally I really loved the book. So much better than the first. I have added it to my Project Muse shelf. Can't wait to read Marriage Makeover when it comes out.

Thanks Nancy! So nice to be on a keeper shelf. I treasure my keeper shelf. And don't worry, I'll let you know when the next comes out! Hope all is zooming along with your writing too...
