The Exciting Announcement
23 May
I’m home from my vacation, which was absolutely lovely, thank you. Wild ponies and bald eagles and all kinds of interesting wildlife were discovered, plus I got an adorable plush fox. There’s nothing for fending off that post-book-writing letdown like good friends and interesting things to do, is there? (Also, cute toys.)
In truth I have no right to be let down about anything just now. I’m very pleased to tell you the reason for my champagne drinking the other day: I promised myself a bottle of the Good Stuff, normally reserved for New Years celebrations, when I sold my first book. And now the lovely Jodi Lee at Belfire Press has accepted my dark Appalachian fae novel, Scripped, for publication! The tentative date is June 2011, and…
Man. Awesome.
It needs saying: Thanks Megh for “getting it” and Manda for cleaning it up. <3
