News! News! Writing news for the first time in almost twenty years
I received an email out of the clear blue sky a couple of months ago from Endeavour Media, a U.K. company, which was inquiring whether I had the rights to The Wild Swans. Would I be interested in having them put it out as an ebook?
I was rather stunned by this and had no idea how they found me, but upon consultation with my former agent (who has since retired), I was able to confirm that yes, the rights have reverted to me, and yes, I was interested.
We went back and forth a bit, and I hemmed and hawed a lot, mostly because I don't really have an agent to guide me anymore. But I signed the contract today. Both The Wild Swans and Emerald House Rising will be released as ebooks sometime in the next year.
Hurrah!
I've been talking with a local writing group about auditioning to join them. Also in the last month, a writer that I went to Clarion with reached out to offer me writing coaching services: she's trying to grow her business, and she wants me to join her beta testing group because I was helpful to her with some marketing when I was job hunting.
You see why I need to re-create the pegkerr.com website. Eek.
OMG, Rob would be so happy for me.

Oh, he would! I can hear him telling me about it. He often told me writing news that you had already mentioned, because he was just so excited.

I can't even remember how I got my hands on my ARC copy of Emerald House Rising (probably a donation that made it's way into the friends of the library sale) but it's just a scootch taller than most of my paperbacks, so it's doesn't fit into the carefully calibrated paperbacks-only shelf. I'll be delighted to put it into my calibre-d e-library!
