Aurelia Sands, Publisher Deer Hawk Publications, sent me the most wonderful gift. I am in awe! I will cherish it forever. Thanks for believing in LLA and for sticking by LLA and its authors. We all appreciate the dedication to excellence. www.loiaconoliteraryagency.com www.deerhawkpublications.com

Pictured in photo: The plaque Aurelai Sands sent me (“can’t” really is not in my vocabulary), a mug from Hodgson’s Water Mill, the mill that inspired Lin Waterhouse’s newly released novel, Bred to the Bone: Deadly Secrets at Hunter’s Water Mill, Katherine Yu’s daughter’s art on the middle mug is what inspired her to write the soon-to-be-released Drawing Sylvia: An Autistic Child Speaks and the cardinal “Johnnie Bird” that Kathleen M. Rodgers, author of Johnnie Come Lately and The Final Salute, gave me the day she signed with LLA. In the rear are a small portion of the over 200 books LLA represents, which I am SO very proud of. I adore each and every one of my authors. Thank you all!

Your humble servant,

Jeanie
