Fast forward: October 2010
Tomorrow my debut novel, Nightshade, hits stores. Agent Richard and Agent Charlie now both now how absolutely crazy I am and seem to like me anyway. Michael Green is still my hero and Jill Santopolo, my editor, is not only brilliant - she's also my friend.
Nightshade started at Penguin but it's making it's way around the world thanks to Foreign Agent Lyndsey who is an absolute star.
I've had the chance to travel all over the country meeting librarians, booksellers, and readers and each place I've been makes me more thrilled about my book's release date. And the more I'm drawn into the writing and publishing world, the more I know this is a collaborative work of love and I am deeply indebted to Penguin, Inkwell, librarians, booksellers, and fans for bringing Nightshade to the wider world.
I will never have enough thanks. The Nightshade pack is growing - thank you for running wild with me.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are so excited for tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteNightshade was one of the best books I have ever read. & tomorrow is definitely one of the most important dates. Ever. ;)

ReplyDeleteHad to pop by and wish you a very happy release day! I LOVED Nightshade and am so happy that you (and the lovely people who worked to bring your work to the rest of us) were able to share your story with we readers. :) Summer 2011 is far too long to wait for Wolfsbane but I suppose I can try to behave until then. ;)
