Graywolf picks up Marie Mutsuki Mockett's debut novel!


Congratulations to Marie Mutsuki Mockett, also known around here as Murasaki, on the sale of her debut novel, PICKING BONES FROM ASH, to Graywolf Press!

What can I say, except, it's about time someone other than me (and HopperFu, and Taizhu) recognized your genius. :P

Look for it in Fall 2009, bookmark her website where you can read the synopsis, and support small presses!

People! Get in on the ground floor of this one. I've read the book and it is really amazing.



PS Since it's my blog I get to mention that I'm the one who thought up the title. Let's hope it sticks. :P

I'd like credit for thinking up about a dozen other titles (all of which sucked, however, which is why Marie is using the awesome title Kaytie pulled out).

I'd like credit for getting killed off in "Touch."

Thank you.

Everyone gets credit!

Now let's spend it in August. :P

OMG.

I can't believe I've agreed to August.

Oy.

But for all of you . . .
