So, 2023 has been a bizarre and complicated year for my aspirations to become a published author. You may remember last year when I announced my book, Mistaken Identity, being acquired by Kindred Ink. Well, right before I left for Ireland, that deal fell through, and the rights to my book were reverted back to me.
My agent, Dawn Dowdle, and I made the decision to try again! This time as a series since I had since completed book two, Be My Little Baby. So, in July, we sent the series off to the handful of publishers we hadn’t tried and crossed our fingers.
Waiting is hard.
This last week was even harder. On November 12, my beloved agent, my rock, the biggest believer in me and my writing, my friend, passed away.
Then, amid my grief, I was contacted by one of the publishers who Dawn sent my book out to, and they made an offer on both books in my series.
So, I’m pleased to announce that Rowan Prose Publishing has acquired both Mistaken Identity and Be My Little Baby to be published as The London Detective Agency series. I am beyond excited, and I’m hoping to have so much book news to share with you in the New Year!
