Publication offer!

Cor! My literary agent emailed me about an hour ago to tell me that someone at Momentum (digital arm of Pan Macmillan) loved my Rapunzel novel, and will publish it if I'm happy to go with "digital-first" publishing

That's SO GREAT! Congratulations!

[tabouli]

Thank you! Gah, so *sudden*. Am still reeling.

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, that is wonderful, and I can't wait to read it!

[tabouli]

The other advantage to digi-pub is, of course, getting it out much faster. How long does this editing-for-publication process take?? Oo, and the Rapunzel novel? Is all about the feminist THEEEMS! Am corrupting the feminism-averse young!

Congratulations! Yay!!

A couple of years ago I was heard to say "I may be beyond cheering up at this point. Unless someone publishes my novel, of course. Now that *would* cheer me up...."

Time to break out the Yay! bunny! Congratulations!

[tabouli]

Thank you! (You have a Yay! bunny? What else is stashed among them Daisy icons?)

[todayiamadaisy]

Not much. I don't feel quite myself without those five daisies next to my name. I once offended someone by using this one. I thought she'd recognise it, but... no. Wrong audience.

That's brilliant! Congratulations!

Thank you! Much as I was maintaining a healthy realism about the grimness of the fiction market, I did, deep down, suspect this one was in with a real chance...
