Book sold: NorseCODE

I just got notification (plus permission to announce) that I've sold my novel Norse Code (or NorseCODE, if we use my rendering, but who knows what the final title will be) to Juliet Ulman at Bantam Dell, via Caitlin Blasdell (Liza Dawson Associates).

In other words, DUDES!!!!!!

I'm going to need a veeeerrry long acknowledgements page to thank everyone who helped me with this, but for now, I'll leave it at thanking all the people here who've cheered me on. Getting an agent and making the sale all happened this week, but it's been a long march, and so many of you guys helped lighten my load.

I'm going to have a lot of work ahead of me in the next several months, but I'm looking forward to it.

The pic below, from June '07, isn't even remotely from the first time I worked on the book, but I think it might be the first coffee/computer pic I ever posted.



Man, I've had a lot of coffee.

Be sure that the sale gets listed on the Viable Paradise Sale page. (Oh, the irony.)

Doode. That's the best news I've heard this week, beating out the previous best news I heard this week... which was also your news!

How's it feel to be a novelist?

And I didn't even mention that I picked my jeans with the new zipper up at the tailor's, so now I can wear pants again!
