		<description>Pip, I can&#039;t begin to tell you or how excited I am.  Geist is a great book, and your craft keeps growing by leaps and bounds with every work you put out.  This is the beginning of great things.  Thank you for all your support -- now, go enjoy the glory.  You&#039;ve earned it many times over! :-)

		<description>Thanks everyone. It was something I had almost given up thinking was possible. Getting here was partly bloody-mindedness and just a love of writing. As soon as I have a publication date I will be letting everyone know.</description>
