Signed, Sealed, and...
Wednesday, November 11, 2009 Almost delivered.
I just signed the agreement with my incredible new agent...drum roll please...
Kathleen Anderson of Anderson Literary Management.
Yes, I officially have representation. And damn fine representation at that. I couldn't be more delighted to be working with Kathy. You should see the little dance I do each time I think about it, which has been on average 23 1/2 hours a day for the past week.
Kathy happened to be out in San Francisco last week right around the time I needed to make a final decision among the several offers I received. She showed up having redlined my entire manuscript, then proceeded to wine and dine me. About five hours into dinner, my choice was clear. "By the way," I said oh so casually and woozy with wine. "I'd really like to work with you."
We hugged, we laughed. It was better than Cats. Seriously.
And now I'm off to the airport--bound for South Africa for two weeks. First half for my day job, second half conveniently to research for the novel I'll soon be starting....
