ABC December used in JoAnn Ross's new novel
Sherrill was thrilled to receive the following email from Stuart regarding best-selling author JoAnn Ross. I now have a signed agreement with JoAnn Ross, so an extract from ABC December will appear in her book. She said, "Sherrill, and Kerry saved my novella! I don't know how it is in the UK, but here in the States, there's much fuss every year between the "Christmas is the holy reason for the season" and the "it's illegal to mix church and state" in school's groups. ABC December let me include angels, dreidels, snowflakes, Christmas trees, and Kwanzaa in my heroine's kindergarten class play, which should keep everyone happy!" |
