Not only was I breathless from running the stairs but also from the news. We are ecstatic, really, just ecstatic. It's weeks like this one that make the hard work all worthwhile." Wingate said.

Her third novel (which she declined to give the name of) will be finished by May 1, 2008. Upon that date, she'll begin the search for a publisher.
