What a wonderful experience and such exciting news.
Actually, it's not impossible for Elizabeth to be a 2006 release.
In my own publication experience, it was about 6-8 months after I turned in my final draft that the final product hit the shelves. (my deadline was the beginning of October for the first draft, and I got my comp copies at the start of the following July). Granted, this was in a totally different industry, so there may be factors invovled here that would delay this that didn't delay my work.
Now, I don't mean to get anyone's hopes up too high, but depending on how far along the writing is on the book, 2006 is not out of the question.
Thanks for the great news! I know we were all wanting it to be true but now I can believe it and save for Elizabeth!
Surely they will bring back some more retired Felicity things and introduce NEW things for her (finally!) with Elizabeth-so exciting!!
AWSOME! Meeting Valerie Tripp would be so KEWL!
Thanks for sharing your wonderful and inspirational experience. I love Felicity, and I am so excited about Elizabeth. One day, you will look back on this meeting and see how it may be a turning point in your life. How exciting! [img]graemlins/idea.gif[/img]
Wow, I can't believe she told you that about the book and doll! Usually AG tries as hard as possible to keep future products under wraps and makes sure that no one says anything!
Gabby that is wonderful!! How nice to meet someone so supportive of your desire to write. I know a lot of times when you meet people currently in the field you aspire to be in, they can be so insecure that they discourage you. Congratualtions on meeting her and you never know, you may have started a beautiful friendship [img]smile.gif[/img]
Thank you also for posting about Felicity. My daughter (who has moved back to Felicity as her favorite) is overjoyed and my purse is happy as well. Now I don't have to rush to get all of the dear girls things [img]wink.gif[/img] I am very happy that they chose to have Elizabeth be the next friend doll. Waiting is the tough part! I wonder if this will effect ebay sales now. Just a thought, if they have friends for all the dolls, do you think they will bring back the retired accessories?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I don't really understand this. Samantha didn't get accessories brought back with Nellie. I think if anything we'll see new accessories for all the girls. But I suppose an accessory could return if it has to do with the friend. Samantha's accessories didn't directly involve Nellie. Maybe Felicity's sampler would come back since it has to do with Elizabeth.Quote:
