THE RIVALS OF VERSAILLES! Coming out early next year. After relatively chaste beginnings with the Mailly Nesle sisters (note the word relatively!), Louis XV continued on his womanizing ways... RIVALS is centered around the Marquise de Pompadour, but also includes stories from a selection of her rivals - it's been really fun writing it, especially the contrast between how Pompadour sees herself, and how others view her.

Sally... I'm asking this questions of several writers—some friends, some strangers. Q: How often are you able to create a desired result for yourself by sheer force of will, or by arranging circumstances? Do you ever feel the reason you aren't far enough along is that you haven't pushed yourself hard enough, even though you've worked very hard? In your writing life or otherwise—is control all it's cracked up to be?
