LONGER VERSION:
In 2007, HarperCollins published my first novel, WICKED LOVELY in the US, Canada, the UK, Australia, & New Zealand. In Germany (Carlsen Verlag) publishes the YA; HörbuchHamburg does the audio; and Piper Verlag will release the "parallel adult edition." WL also is or will be published in Sweden (Damm Forlag), Finland (Werner Soderstrom Oy), Denmark (Forlaget Sesam), Spain (Salamandra), Italy (Fazi Editore), France (Albin Michel), China (Shanghai 99 Readers’ Culture Co Ltd), Romania (RAO International Publishing Co), Japan (Tokyo Sogensha Co., Ltd), Indonesia (Gramedia), Estonia (Pegasus), Poland (Nasza Ksiegarnia), Vietnam (Innovative Publishing & Media Corp), and Turkey (Artemis Yayinlari). I am quite grateful that my books have found so many fabulous homes.
INK EXCHANGE was released in the US in 2008 and will publish in most of the aforementioned places as well.
FRAGILE ETERNITY released in the US in April 2009.
The first volume in a 3 book manga series (art by Xian Nu studios) DESERT TALES released April 09.
There are more novels after that.
After that, I have 3 more novels under contract with HarperTeen, a short story in the anthology LOVE IS HELL (HarperCollins US, Nov 08), DESERT TALES a 3-book manga series (TokyoPop, Volume 1 releases in April 09), and a short story in UNBOUND an adult urban fantasy anthology for Harper Eos (09).
I am represented by Merrilee Heifetz of Writers House.
