Six of One

Something old

Something new

Six brand-new books

Just for you

I am insanely pleased to announce that I’ve sold six new books, three each to two different publishers.

“Something old” would be three new books in the Praxis series, sold to David Pomerico at HarperCollins.  Readers have been wanting more of Martinez and Sula, and I’ve been wanting to provide that, but publishing wasn’t ready.  Till now.

“Something new” would be Quillifer, a brand-new epic series I’ve sold to Joe Monti at Saga.  I’ll save the details for later, though I will say that it’s unlike anything I’ve ever written.

Though some pages exist, these books are largely unwritten, and so the first Quillifer book won’t be out till 2017, and the first Praxis till 2018.   So I’m afraid you’ll still have to be patient.

I’d like to thank the editors for being amenable to my writing two series at once, and cooperating as to deadlines, etc.

I’ve never sold six books at a single go before, so I’m just the least bit nervous.  But I know I’ll manage, because I really want to write these books.  I’ll just have to remind myself not to get sick.  Or pregnant.

On the positive side, I know what I’ll be doing for the rest of the decade.  Which is to say, what I like to do above all things: write.
