Nakhlasmoke · Jun 23, 2010

HI!!!!

I haven't had internet in almost 2 months, and what a craaaaaaaazy time it's been.

Anyone wanna update me on news of awesome?

kellion92 · Jun 23, 2010

News of awesome, Nakhlasmoke? Do you have any of your own that you want to share??????

Nakhlasmoke · Jun 23, 2010

LOL, well, i mean yeah I have good news, but i better get good news in return or I'm gonna feel all newsed out.

http://www.cathellisen.com/?p=1194 - basically, my book sold.

Welcome back, Nakhla! I know I congratulated you already, but congrats again!!! Your book sounds awesome.

No news on my end, alas.

Nakhlasmoke · Jun 23, 2010

Yep, thanks for the congrats!

I know some people heard about it through twitter and my random little lj update, so if you've congratted me, I'm sorry i was so lame getting back to peeps. My phone internet was pretty pathetic, in that it took me almost 5 minutes just to post a bloody tweet.

Calla Lily · Jun 23, 2010

Congrats again, Nakhla!

Nakhlasmoke · Jun 23, 2010

And thanks again!

kellion92 · Jun 23, 2010

Congratulations! I did know but I didn't have your contact so this is the first time I said it! Yay! Others can update their news -- I am strictly in no-news mode myself (revision with agent) so I love to see sales happening.

Nakhlasmoke · Jun 23, 2010

Aw thanks, Kellion.

I gotta say, there really was not a more inconvenient time for me to be without internet.

Nakhlasmoke · Jun 23, 2010

btw, apparently someone posted the deal in purgatory? I don't know who did, but suhweeeet! thanks! to whoever was excited enough about it to to remember me.

YAwriter72 · Jun 23, 2010

Oh! I remember reading about that deal in PM! Congrats!

Nakhlasmoke · Jun 23, 2010

Thanks YAwriter.

Wordwrestler · Jun 23, 2010

Nakhla, how awesome is that! I know the whole sub process (don't know if this is the book it started with for you or not, but still) hasn't been easy. Your happy ending gives me hope!

Nakhlasmoke · Jun 23, 2010

Hey word, thanks. Nope, this is my...fourth? book since the one that originally got me an agent (a different one). So it took me 2 agents and three more books before getting a sale.

So there's def hope. LOL

I try.

My news is...not really news. Did exclusive revisions for an editor. It's going to the board this week. Still waiting. It's like death.

Kendare Blake · Jun 23, 2010

Blondchen, that SO totally is news! Good luck!

Nahklasmoke, everyone seems to know you but I don't...so hi! And congratulations. Your book sounds awesome, and what a great title. Bet the art department is going to have a blast with your cover!

Mel A. · Jun 23, 2010

Nakhla, nice to see you back again, and . . . CONGRATS! That's super awesome news. So happy for you! :snoopy:

kellion92 · Jun 23, 2010

Congrats to Tri too! I don't think he announced all those details... And yay Blond! That's the most public I think you've been about your almost-news (maybe all those white text messages are making you extra chatty).
