This is exciting news!! Congrats. How does it feel to finish a series? How does it end? Any hints. Previews. Copies. Lol jk I'm very excited though. I absolutely cannot wait to see the cover!!!!
Thank you for your amazing support, everyone! It's so gratifying to finish this series! But I'm also sad, because I've grown to love these characters so much. <3<3<3 I might have to revisit them one day, in fact.And yes, hopefully I can give a more detailed synopsis once we have a cover reveal. And then after that I'll start posting some teasers... Soon I hope! *hugs*

@Nikki & @Brittersweet:LOL. Such loyal little mothlings. Don't you think each of the three main characters deserves a cover at least once? ;P
YAY!!!! I can't wait to read it!!! Jeb's turn pleeeeaaaase. You are a wonderful writer A.G. Howard and Im glad I bought this book for the library I work for and decided to read it myself.
I'm trying to think rationally and I know it's fair but my answer is still no. I haven't fangirled this hard since Nsync was around.
@Candy, that is such a lovely thing to say! Thank you so much! I'm thrilled you enjoy the series. :D Hope you like the last one, too!@Brittersweet, haha! Wow, that's some high praise for Morpheus's swoon factor, up there with the boy bands. ;D
@ A.G. Howard, Well that depends on who gets the girl. lol j/k

Ahh lest we forget Morpheus shall have Alyssa ...One day. However, I do not have the patience for this , and wish for him to have her now! Actually, I'd like to amend that statement, I wish for ME to have HIM! Now! :]
@Morphette, haha! I'll tell him you said that. Watch for moths at your window...and welcome to the boards! Love your user name. :D@JZ and @Candy... AGREED X 2. ;)
*sees something awesome on the net* Dahanci! Dahanci! DAHANCI!!!!!! Are you the same DaHanci that wrote that cute little Splintered Xmas fanfiction?!?!?!

My sentiments exactly, Booknut.

Yay! It's finished! Now I just....wait...oh. :(Well, I'm glad it's finished at least. That puts us that much closer to the book.
i totally just done a happy dance in front of company who have no idea what was going on lol
I just started dancing and giggling like a school girl. Only, I have a cold so I sounded like an elderly man who's spent the last 55 years smoking. Cough, dance, fangirl. Workin' it, you know. (Anyways, AWESOME NEWS! I'm so excited!)
Super super super excited for this!! And even though I do like both of the guys I mostly just want to see Alyssa be super BA. Cause she is. I just want to see more of that. :P
Bahaha! Some of these comments are cracking me up. XD Thanks everyone for your support! Can't wait to start sharing things like cover and teasers. :D
ATTENTION!!When you vote for Morpheus, comment on Sarah Kate's facebook post! You are entered into the draw each time you comment that you vote, and if Morpheus wins the round, a voter will be drawn to win a prize.
Don't think that you can fool this netherling though. Sarah Kate monitors the poll votes to make sure nobody cheats!

In the nex..."Those are great ideas for covers! But, what you don't realize yet, is how big of a role Jeb plays in the final book. That's why he's one of the considerations for a cover. Because w/out him ... well ... I can't say anymore than that. #SpoilerFreeZone ;)
Rabid not could you tell? *innocent looking grin*
Diane wrote: "A.G. wrote: "Diane wrote: "I guess I'm a weird one. I was thinking something different for the cover from Jeb.

But no worries, there's room for it all. IF *crosses fingers* they don't try to make me cut the book way down in my next set of edits (they were strict about that with the first 2 bks). I hope to push the fact that since it's a series finale, it's allowed to be a little longer. That way everyone gets their character ARC. ;)
Sarrie wrote: "Rabid not could you tell? *innocent looking grin*"Haha! Ummm. Can't tell. Not even Rabid. ;P
Diane wrote: "A.G. wrote: "Diane wrote: "A.G. wrote: "Diane wrote: "I guess I'm a weird one. I was thinking something different for the cover from Jeb. I thought the first was perfect, as you're introduced to ..."Aw, thank you! I'm sorry to put you in a funk! ;(
And yeah, most pubs get more control over some things than writers would like. That's why a lot of writers are choosing the self pub route.
And great point about HP series; even though I'm nowhere near Rowling's status as an author, I hope I can have *some* say in the final one, and will probably use her final books and a few others out there as an example as to why the last one needs to be longer.
Not to say that my publisher is bad, because they're actually really wonderful! It might've been a "let's save some money and make the books smaller" issue with the first two (helps w/the printing cost if you keep it at 400 pages or less) but I'm hoping I'm proven enough now with a readership that really wants this last one, that maybe it won't even be an issue. :)
lol I would hope they can see that you are a wonderful Author and that you have a huge fan base who doesn't want your book to be cut down.

Diane wrote: "I agree with Candy! If it would help for fans to write your publisher and let them know we'll read anything and everything you write, let us know! I'll be the first to send a letter/email!!! :)"That's so nice! Tell you what, if they need proof, I'll send them over to read this thread. ;) Also, you guys have made my night. <3
Any news as to when the cover will be reveealed, like maybe the first letter and last letter of the month so we could guess! I totally feel like a kid asking my mom for something i know i cant have. LOL<3

I'm wondering if they're going to unveil it live at TLA next week (a conference in San Antonio I'll be attending)... that's what they did w/Unhinged's cover last year. I'll let you know if I hear anything!

Not where I live anyway. Landenberg it even sounds boring. That's cause it is. My neighbors are cows. Moooo

Here is another "asking mom for something I know I can't have" (good one btw, Britter) question: Is there going to be another novella before Ensnared is published (or even after for that matter)?
