There's this thing called Publishers Lunch, sort of the publishing equivalent of Gossip Girl, where this central buzz agency sends out an email summarizing all of the deals that are happening. For me, getting my deal printed in Publishers Lunch has been a weird little side dream—a weird little side dream that has now come true! This just in:
"Christy Raedeke’s PROPHECY OF DAYS, pitched as a YA Da Vinci Code relating to the Mayan calendar which mysteriously ends in 2012, in which a teen, with the help of a gorgeous Scottish lad, must figure out her role in a cryptic prophecy while trying to outwit a secret society that will stop at nothing to control her, to Andrew Karre at Flux, in a nice deal, in a two-book deal, for publication in Summer 2010, by Laura Rennert at Andrea Brown Literary Agency (North America)."
I was really astonished to read this, as I had not known how my agent was pitching my book. Interesting summation…
