Authors on the Air host Pam Stack welcomes the magnificent, award-winning and best-selling author SUSAN ELIZABETH PHILLIPS.  About Susan:  I STARTED TO WRITE completely by accident. My best friend Claire lived two doors down the street. Both of us were big readers. We loved talking about the books—what we liked, what we didn’t. One day, just for fun, we decided to try to write a book together. For three weeks as we rode our bikes in the evening, with my toddler in the baby seat behind me, we plotted our story. Then we sat down with a yellow pad and began to write. FOUR HOURS LATER we’d come up with exactly three sentences. With only half the manuscript completed, we got the phone number of an editor at Dell Publishing. She was a very nice woman, asked us some questions about our book, and then agreed to see it, even though it wasn’t finished.She also wanted to see a synopsis. Synopsis? We barely knew what was going to happen in the next chapter, let alone the end of the book. THREE WEEKS LATER the telephone rang. It was the editor. “I’m calling from Dell Publishing. We’ve read your manuscript. We like it. And Dell is prepared to make you an offer.” The rest is history!
