Here's how I'll be spending my next five summer vacations...

Okay, some very cool and exciting news to report.

This appeared in Publishers Marketplace today:


CHILDREN'S: MIDDLE GRADE
Author of CINDY ELLA and the upcoming GEEK CHARMING Robin Palmer's YOURS TRULY, LUCY B. PARKER, about a 12-year-old girl whose new stepsister isn't just pretty and popular, she's a Hannah Montana-type superstar, so Lucy emails a Dr. Phil-like celebrity therapist for advice, to Jennifer Bonnell and Eileen Kreit at Puffin, in a five-book deal, for publication in Fall 2010, by Kate Lee at ICM (World English).

I'm beyond thrilled about this. In fact, this blogging post is but a mere short commercial break before I return to working on the first book.
