Bernadette Marie Hi all! I wanted to let you know some exciting news! I am working with a publisher who is currently looking at the Matchmaker Series. I have also had a request for a partial manuscript for Admirer from another. Keep your fingers crossed. By the end of 2010 you just might have a Bernadette Marie novel in your hands! Thanks for all your support!
Bernadette Marie Hello to my dear supporters! Currently I am working on my Golden Heart submissions and waiting for response from The Wild Rose Press. I am working on book 3 of the Matchmakers series. This book will follow Hope Kendal's story twenty-three years from when we met her. The book entitled Finding Hope has proven to be a... joy to work on. I hope very soon you will all have the opportunity to read it.
Bernadette Marie I've just returned from RWA conference in DC. I pitched, made some great connections, and networked! Getting down to work now. I will be finishing the Matchmakers series and submitting it agressivly. Also while gone I started my next book Cart Before

Here's another:
I just finished reading Matchmakers. Every woman regardless of age will be able to realte to one of the 4 main women in this book. There will be times where you might see your self in more than just one. I loved how Bernadette used the universal language of music to heal wounds and allow love a chance. ...David is a strong man. He does the right thing at the expense of the possiblity costing him everything he ever wanted. Carrissa is a seventeen year old who has wisdom beyond her years due to the life experience she has witnessed. She is an amazing character whom I hope to see grow-up in the future. Millie and Katie are grandmothers or aunts everyone wished they had growing up. Many women who have that one special friend will be able to relate to those two old women and laugh until you cry. Sophia is the woman all of us have been at one time or another. I LOVE this book! I look forward to seeing it published. Alexa White

My reader panel is coming back with their reviews. Now all we need is finger crossing for the agents that I've queried to come back with some offers for representation! Here's what's being said.

I have read Matchmakers... and let me tell you... YOU WILL NEED A BOX OF KLEENEX!! I could not stop crying from the joy of this book!! You start to not like Carissa, then you fall in love with her! The strentgh that Bernadette gives this amazing seventeen year old that could outshine most thirtysomethings is impressive! I am glad my laptop survived all my tears! And how both Sophie and Carissa find themselves in music is so beautiful, and of course the love that never died with Sophie and David even with ten years apart from the other! I LOVE MATCHMAKERS! I am so hopeful it gets published and will reread, reread, reread and reread! Way to go Bernadette!
I've been very busy already this month! I finished Matchmakers in December and have a panel of three readers reading it right now. I have sent it out to the North Texas RWA contest and am also sending quries to agents looking for representation. I'm feeling really good about 2009...
