Look what arrived in the mail this morning! A box of books with one of my photos on the cover...
Back in May I was approached by Emily Asad, an author in Florida, asking for permission to
use one of my doll photos on the cover of her new book. She said her novel was about a
modern teenager who discovers an enchanted dollhouse that takes human prisoners. She
awakens the tiny family and falls in love with the Musketeer. My photo of modern Leona
with Musketeer Owen was perfect for her cover, and she was hoping she could use it.
So I agreed and sent her a full-size file of the photo she wanted.
The books look really great!

The story looks intriguing....
"Zenia Segovia is seventeen, single, and unfairly flunking
high school. Life gets even worse when her
mother disappears, leaving Zenia to pay bills while
managing school and a part time job.
At the mansion where she now works, she uncovers
an enchanted dollhouse that takes human prisoners
and turns them into wooden dolls if they try to escape.
Its handsome teen residents begin a competition for
her heart. Are they sincere or just bored? Does it
really matter? Anything's better than being alone.
In order to free her friends, she must confront a
young sorceress who doesn't understand why it's so
wrong to shrink people. Razor-sharp logic seems like
a puny weapon against magic, but solving an ancient
riddle could be the key to breaking the curse. If Zenia
fails, she'll forfeit her size, freedom, and the future
she desperately wants with her new boyfriend.
Ultimately, she must decide whether to keep her
friends happy...or keep them forever."

Emily also included some of her favourite chocolate, but was very concerned that it might melt in transit. I was fully expecting a molten mess, considering how hot it's continuing to be here, so was extremely surprised when the chocolate wasn't even soft! Of course, the package arrived early this morning when the temperature was 'just' 30 C. Maybe postal vehicles are air conditioned? I don't know, but I can't imagine if the parcel was still sitting out in a truck this afternoon. My outside thermometers say it's 36 in the shade, and that's not including humidity. The Humidex is 45 C which translates to 113 Fahrenheit !! We are breaking all kinds of heat records, and the summer is nowhere near over. Thank goodness for air conditioning!!
