Marley's 4 Book Deal!!!!!!

        I have to interrupt my regular programming here to announce that my very good friend Marley Gibson, SOLD FOUR BOOKS!!!!!!

        Marley and I joined our local RWA writer's chapter a few years ago at the same time.  While I've been dabbling, and dreaming about writing and talking about it, and starting and stopping several manuscripts, Marley has been 'just doing it'.  She has written and completed multiple manuscripts, in the chick lit, women's fiction and YA genres.  She's had a few really close calls, and rotten luck/timing with lines closing or changing focus.  But, she also has an amazing agent, Deidre Knight, of the Knight Agency, who loves Marley's writing voice, believes in her and has championed her work in the way one can only dream that an agent will do.

All of her hard work and persistence paid off this week when her YA proposal and sample chapters wowed the editors at Penguin's Puffin imprint, and they offered her a 4 book deal. Here's the official announcement from Publisher's Marketplace,

CHILDREN'S: YOUNG ADULT
Debut author Marley Gibson's four untitled books in a series about a group of collegiate sorority sisters, to Angelle Pilkington and Karen Chaplin at Puffin, in a nice deal, by Deidre Knight at The Knight Agency (world.)

I read these sample chapters, and the story is wonderful!  She is going to be busy writing for the rest of this year, as these books will be coming out close together, which should help launch the series and a fantastic writing career!

Yay Marley!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:) Pam, who is just giddy with excitement, and looking forward to celebrating tomorrow!

Thanks soooooooooooooooooooooo much, Pam! What a sweet post!!! And to make it food related...through the years in our writing struggle, we've had some great meals, swapped recipes and had a lot of amazing wine. See...made it about food. = )

You're very welcome! Funny too isn't it, how everything does come back to food! or wine. Had a great one last night, will do a blog on the great red Chilean wines, but this was only $8.99 and amazing. Conch Y Toro Cabernet. Mmmmm :)

Great post, and congrats to Marley--read about it initially over at Yahoo. Yahooooo to you! And Pam, you'll get a deal too! We just have to keep writing, right?!?!

[pam]

Hey Steph,

Yes, we'll get there too, though you'll likely get there long before I will. I still need to actually write my first book!

:) Pam

I invested money in some programs which are placed on this site.
On a site written that it is the program which helps make money at home.
