Growl, baby. VERY GROWL.Now, some of you might remember that I bought a pair of zombie heels to celebrate the sale of BAD TASTE IN BOYS. Since then, I've written a sequel called BAD HAIR DAY. It's about werewolves and nanotech and shaved bears in lab coats and blueberry flavored astronauts and bath mats made of human hair. Since they don't make blueberry flavored astronaut shoes (and why NOT?!?), I asked for the werewolf shoes for Christmas because it just seemed fitting that I'd have a pair for both of the Kate Grable books.
Guys? The werewolf shoes are LUCKY. Because I woke up this morning to THIS:
Author of BAD TASTE IN BOYS and Class of 2011 member, Carrie Harris's next Kate Grable novel BAD HAIR DAY, again to Wendy Loggia at Delacorte, in a nice deal, for publication in Summer 2012 and 2013, by Kate Schafer Testerman at kt literary (World English).
In case that's not clear enough, let me shout it out for you--I SOLD TWO MORE BOOKS! That's right! BAD HAIR DAY will be released in summer of 2012, and then there will be a new, to-be-determined book from yours truly in the summer of 2013! It may or may not have blueberry flavored astronauts in it. Because really, there are not enough astronauts of any flavor in YA. Don't you agree?
And thanks to the makers of Iron Fist shoes for helping to make my dreams come true. I'm working on a couple of books with demons and vampires in them. Can you make more shoes?
