A Spicy Announcement

It's a new foreign rights sale for CHAINED!

And thanks to this post by Darcy Pattison, I found a fun way to announce it. If you're not familiar with Fiverr.com, it's a site where you can find all kinds of random things people will do for $5. It's kind of addictive to scroll through. When I heard about my next foreign rights sale, I had a video made by this user, who spells out messages using Indian spices. Then I had to hang on to it for a couple of weeks until I could officially announce the news. Which is now!



I've been thrilled about each of the foreign rights sales before, but I'm especially honored about a publisher in India acquiring the novel, since that's where CHAINED is set.

The Indian edition will be published by Penguin/Puffin India in 2014.
