I've been sitting on this news approximately forever, but now that the contracts are signed my agent tells me it's time to share --
Knife has been bought by Orchard Books in the UK, and will therefore be available in Great Britain, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand* by the time the summer of 2009 rolls around.
I am very, very happy about this.
--
* And potentially any number of other English-speaking places as well, though I'm not holding my breath for Namibia or the Falkland Islands.

Date: 2008-04-07 05:14 pm (UTC)Does it mean you'll get a different cover, too?

Date: 2008-04-07 06:31 pm (UTC)I wonder if one will be my secret favorite, or whether, like children, I'll just love them both for what they are? It's exciting to think about getting two cover designs and illustrations, in any case.

Date: 2008-04-08 12:08 am (UTC)BTW, I appreciated your candid post on revision today. It's always encouraging when other writers share their struggles -- I hope the process goes well for you, even if it seems overwhelming right now. (Though I'm presently in the opposite position, where starting a new book seems hopelessly overwhelming and revisions almost a breeze by comparison.)
