Happy Happy Joy Joy
Patient readers, after long last, the ink is dry! I'm happy to share officially the good news that THE DESIRE PROJECTS has been acquired by Macmillan St. Martin's in a two-book deal. Many thanks to my agent, Mitchell Waters, and my new editor at St. Martin's, Karyn Marcus.
The revised manuscript of THE DESIRE PROJECTS is due to the publisher on July 1 and will be out in the Spring 2012 season. The second novel (currently known as UNTITLED #2) is due in the summer of 2012 (gulp) and will appear, I believe, in 2013.
THE DESIRE PROJECTS is my first novel, and to have it find such a great home--and to have the publisher take it on faith that I can write a second one just as good--is amazing. I am thrilled and grateful in every way.
