Not just yet ...

Well, to date no publisher has been bashing down my door to get me to sign with them. I'm not too downhearted as I have many other things occupying my brain at the moment. With 'Hex Marks the Spot' finished, I am now concentrating on the third Aggie book and I'm determined to have it published by Feb 2009. I get a lot of emails from people asking about it so I have decided that it is my duty as a writer to get the book finished!! The third book of the series will be called 'Hero Required' and picks up from the end of book two 'Arty's Revenge'. It's written differently in that I am the narrator rather than Aggie herself. Well, I think talking as a Grublin all the way through would not only be too much to write but be a little onerus to read. Look out for it in the new year.

Possible publisher?

So I now hear that nine publishers are interested in publishing my books. Hurray! And ... Fox films have taken the manuscript back to the US to have a look at. Hurray!

Now comes the long wait - it could be months, it could be years, it could be never!!

Still, I have plenty of school work and writing to keep me busy in the mean time. And - I'm very patient!!!

I have an agent!

It's been a while since my last post but I have truly exciting news! I have, at last, signed with an agent! Suzy Jenvey of PFD Literary Agency will now be representing me worldwide. For me, this means I may now attract a mainstream publisher which will leave more time to concentrate on my writing. But for the time being, I shall still be signing in book stores and giving author talks in schools ...

If you would like an author talk please contact me at purpleraypublishing@hotmail.co.uk
