The second book in the Mrs. Miracle series, 2010
Christmas 2010
Dear Friends,
After the success of Mrs. Miracle, the Hallmark movie released last Christmas, I was asked to write a sequel. Naturally everyone wanted the story to be the same…only different. No pressure, right? Then I thought about one of my all-time favorite Christmas movies-Miracle on 34th Street. Hmm…can’t you just imagine my Mrs. Miracle working in the toy department of a major department store in New York? That’s when my mind started popping with ideas.
So here is Call Me Mrs. Miracle-the same, only different. I know you’re going to enjoy the story, and if everything works out according to schedule (which may require a few miracles of its own), this sequel will also be a Hallmark movie slated for December.
I’ve dedicated the book to Dan and Sally Wigutow. Dan is the movie producer who brought Mrs. Miracle to life last December on the Hallmark channel. Sally is his wife, whom I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. Dan is a wise man to have chosen such a wonderful, insightful woman. Caroline Moore is Dan’s coproducer and was the first one to give Dan my book. “We need to turn this into a movie,” she told him. The woman is brilliant…but then what else can I say?
Getting this project together quickly has been a challenge and I owe a debt of appreciation to my editor, who worked long hours on this manuscript to whip it into shape in time to hand it off to Dan to get it to the screenplay writer to get it back to Dan and Hallmark…you’ve got the idea. Thank you, Paula.
A huge note of gratitude to Jody Hotchkiss, my movie agent, who moved heaven and earth to make this deal happen so fast, and to Theresa Park, my literary agent, as well. I am surrounded by a fabulous team.
Now the book is in the hands of the most important people of all, and that’s you, my readers. Sit back, enjoy and celebrate the season.
Christmas greetings.
