I'm delighted to announce that
Goldmann, my German publishers, have bought and are going to be publishing
The Bitter Seed of Magic - Spellcrackers.com #3! I don't know the date yet, but as soon as I do, I'll post an update on my website. A big, big thank you to Goldmann, and to
John Jarrold, my agent and the wonderful rights team at
Orion/Gollancz for making this happen. *does the German happy dance*.
And now for the short story ...
... and no, it's not one of mine, but a very cool tale from writer
Julie Campbell.
Julie's story is called The Vampire Kissed and the Eye and you can
read it here in a flash fiction contest on
Devin O'Branagan's website. And when you've read it, (and I can tell you, you're gonna want to!!) show Julie and her very cool story some fangy love and
VOTE for it too!!
Here's a clue ...
Voting is open through tomorrow, and Julie's just one vote behind right now. So. Go.
Read. And.
Vote!!
Or, as Julie (
phoenixfirewolf )says on her LJ, 'you could head over to vampirekissed.com and read the stories posted in the forum and vote for which ever one you think is best. That's fair too :)'
