The insane ramblings of Lauren Hammond, a YA book author and literary agent.
Asphodel Book Birthday!
So I'm super duper excited that Asphodel releases today! Yay!
You can buy you eBook copy at either Amazon, B&N, or Smashwords and the paperback will be available for pre-order starting Thurs. :)
I also have some more good news!
My lovely client Kelly Hashway's book, Touch of Death sold in a two book deal to Spencer Hill Press for publication in Jan 2013. Yay!
I have got two more deals to announce, but have to wait a little while longer before I announce them. *sighs*
That's all for now, I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Cheers!
Hopefully there's more awesomeness to come in 2012!
<3 Lauren
