Novelist, Journalist and other things ending in -ist
Those lovely folks at Transworld have stumped up ten copies of Apocalypse Cow (winner of the Terry Pratchett prize, etc) to give away as freebies. I’ll be running a giveaway per month for the next three months on Goodreads. Click below to enter the first:
I’m very happy to announce that St Martin’s Press have acquired the US rights to Apocalypse Cow. It should be hitting the shelves in the Spring of 2013. Hurray!
The final entry in my Terry Pratchett prize diary for Multi-Story is now up.
For all those who thought I was being a bit far-fetched with a novel about zombie cows, this here journalist, Mike Argento, is turning up startling, incontrovertible evidence that the bovine apocalypse is coming.
Don’t say we didn’t warn you!
Yet another quick one to draw your attention to a little chat about Apocalypse Cow and other writing stuff on the blog of Vanessa Gebbie. Vanessa is a prize-winning author whose first novel The Coward’s Tale is a rich, emotional story of the repercussions of a mining disaster in a small Welsh village. She was also the judge when a short story of mine won the Fish Publishing 2008 One-Page Fiction prize.
Thanks for hosting me, V!
Finally, I am a published author. Feels like I’ve been waiting forever.
Anyhoo, here’s a wee blog post on the Transworld website on how it feels.
