I've waited 110 days to tell you this.
Mar. 29th, 2010 04:49 pmBut my agent sold my book.
And two more.
Yep, a three-book deal... to HarperCollins Children's.
Back on December 10th, I might add, and I've been writhing with impatience for months now, but the contracts came today, and I mailed them off, and Caitlin said I can tell you all.
You know how people post those "I have a secret and I can't tell you?" entries? I couldn't do it. The whole time, I knew if I did it, it would end in disaster. So I wrote all my impatience into entries that I stuck in a text file. When I get home, I will post them. And you can marvel at my writhing. Because it was mighty.

You deserve this. And now you have it. Please feel smug for as long as you want.
