From October 2008's RT BOOKreviews, the Fan Forum column, by Flavia Knightsbridge:    

Another merry RT conventioneer, Judi Fennell, also graduated into the big time. Bubbly Judi, whose entry in AT III, "Beauty and the Best," made it to round three, has secured a contract with independent publisher Sourcebooks -- for three books! Hmm, I sense a numerological trend here. Book one in her Mer series, In Over Her Head, comes out in June '09, with books two and three coming out in August and October. In Over Her Head was the manuscript busy Judi entered in that other contest, what is it? Reap? Thresh? Collect? Congregate? Oh, silly me: It's Gather. Judi also will be gathering at next year's convention, no doubt sporting three tiaras!

That would be 2 1/2" (yes, I measured!!) of type on the Fan Forum page. I knew I was getting a mention; I didn't realize HOW BIG of a mention. Plus, what nice things they said. I'll take "merry," and "bubbly" and "busy."

Anyone know any tiara wholesalers?

This is such great news...I think I am going to cry....I can say I knew her when...Judi I am soooo happy for you...you deserve this..you are a fantastic writer.
Vivian A. Aug 29, 2008, 2:11pm EDT
Awesome Judi- try online bridal shops. Seems weird, but they have big selections.

Congrats! Again.
Vivian A. Aug 29, 2008, 2:12pm EDT
For tiaras- what a vague statement I made.
Vivian A. Aug 29, 2008, 2:12pm EDT
You could post it to the Romantics so I could feature it :-?

This is so cool--another star shining out from the Wombat Universe! I thought of you when I passed through the bookstore today, and how cool it will be to see your name on the shelf (okay, I was in the F. aisle already, just by coincidence, looking at a Michael Frayn novel if you must know).

Yay for Judi!
John Philipp Aug 29, 2008, 6:03pm EDT
Hooray for you, Judi!

Well deserved. It's only the beginning.
Wendy C. Aug 29, 2008, 8:08pm EDT
Bows to Lady Judith.. well done m'lady!
Tracy Fabre Aug 29, 2008, 9:33pm EDT
now, if you want a *classy* tiara, be sure to check out Oriental Trading.

(no, I'm not serious.)

Just leave them standing in awe!
Pat S. Aug 29, 2008, 9:34pm EDT
Judi! This is beyond cool! Jumping up and down for you (and hiding my own tiara. No, you may not have it!)
Lisa Frost Aug 29, 2008, 10:52pm EDT
great job Judi! I am not surprised at all, but it is wonderful news.
James R. Aug 30, 2008, 11:50am EDT
Hi Judi, great PR and advance buildup for your first book. Congrats.
Sandy (back in Ohio...blah!) Aug 30, 2008, 1:11pm EDT
I don't know any....but congrats to you!! That is something to be proud of.
Beth H. Aug 30, 2008, 8:15pm EDT
So very, very cool. And Oriental Trading for tiaras? They make some fun stuff. Don't know how long their tiaras would last, however.
~Sia McKye~ Aug 31, 2008, 1:49pm EDT
How thrilling. Yah, I'd measure it too! In things like this inches do count...
Antoine D. Sep 4, 2008, 5:55pm EDT
Congratulations Judi. What a joyous time!
Dena Straughn Sep 5, 2008, 8:05pm EDT
It just keeps getting better and better; awesome!

I stopped by to wish you a happy birthday. I read what you wrote about your dear friend. It seems like we should celebrate each birthday! I do. May you have a wonderful and blessed day.
Thank you, For Sharing!!!!!!

Today is the very first day of the rest of your life.
How will you spend it?

I'm just so happy for you!
It's too bad that Gather gave up the contest when I came to the site. Sigh.
Ian M. Mar 12, 2009, 8:51am EDT
Awesome cover and review. I don't know if I can be excited and enthused at the same time, but quietly enthused may be just me. Wow, Judi. Your writing is the best I've read among many as far as personality, positivity, and a lot of other things go.
Charity M. Mar 16, 2009, 8:04am EDT
