I just came across this today (how many months after you published it?!). <br /><br />Just so you do know, the title, Battle Dress, comes from the combat uniform that was worn during the time that the book took place -- the Battle Dress uniform. My publisher at the time (HarperCollins) liked the gender/military mix that it conveyed. It hadn't been my working title for the novel, but I've learned that my working titles are seldom appealing to my publishers!<br /><br />Anyway, thanks again for the review!<br /><br />~AmySomeone you may knowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07452078966942933966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1214401809446305406.post-29512175453229102402011-05-24T22:31:03.247-04:002011-05-24T22:31:03.247-04:00Hi, Steph,

I just came across this today.<br /><br />Just so you do know, Battle Dress was taken from the combat uniform of the era when the story took place -- Battle Dress Uniform. My publisher at the time (Harper Collins) liked the gender/military mix that it conveyed. This hadn't been the working title I used, but I've learned that my working titles aren't what publishers want on the cover of their books -- lol.<br /><br />Anyway, thanks for the review!Someone you may knowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07452078966942933966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1214401809446305406.post-82110249564842247202011-01-02T00:56:34.016-05:002011-01-02T00:56:34.016-05:00Sounds interesting.
