But 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.

OK, so it's late, and I'm days behind on my LJ as usual but can I just say:

IT'S ABOUT BLOODY TIME.

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

I was reading your posts in Google Reader (so...backward, chronologically) and thought, how did I miss this sale 111 days ago?! Now I get it.

Congratulations! Very exciting. Do you have a tentative pub date? I'm commenting without having read all the posts, so you've probably already said. Very happy for you!

Thanks! --Shan

(my word verification is "this muldoon." Sounds like a good Irish lit title.)
