We're finally taking this show on the road! Seanan has a UK publisher!

I am ecstatic to finally be able to announce that I—as in "me writing under my own name," not Mira, who has a different publishing setup than Seanan does—have acquired a UK publisher! Both the October Daye and the InCryptid books will be coming out from Constable & Robinson, under their Corsair imprint. I AM BEING PUBLISHED BY AN IMPRINT THAT IS ALSO AN X-MEN REFERENCE.

My life is complete.

My page on the Constable & Robinson site is right over here, and will eventually have neat things like book covers (no idea yet what the books are going to look like in the UK market IT'S AN EXCITING MYSTERY). There's also an awesome pre-order page for the UK edition of Discount Armageddon, which will be coming out in April of 2014.

The deal includes all the current books in both series, which means a) non-imported editions for my UK readers, and b) easily available ebooks. Such excitement! Such delight!

I am really over the moon about this, and I'm so happy to be joining the Constable & Robinson/Corsair family of authors. UK publisher!

Bliss.

Huzzah for locally available editions. (writes memo to keep an eye on Waterstones for releases I can get points for buying.)

This now means that I only have to go through Amazon (or Book Depository) for ONE author. I can go to my Friendly Neighborhood Independent Bookseller to get your books now!

Hey, if you have a UK publisher, does that mean that other countries in the Commonwealth can get your stuff? Because if that's true, then I just might be able to find your books in bookshops here in NZ! And wouldn't THAT be awesomesauce? \o/

Scorpio Books in CH carries Seanan (and Miras) books on the shelves FYI

I barely understand what this means BUT IT SOUNDS AWESOME and also very timely because I just mailed that signed Chimes ARC to the UK, where...apparently the book isn't available? Or only available as an import? So I guess that will be a cool gift indeed.

New covers! British covers! Are they going to translate everything into British so that Toby is addicted to tea instead of coffee?

No, probably not.

Congrats! I've been lucky enough to find your books as Seanan in a lot of Waterstones, actually, but I think this means I can preorder now, which I think they don't let you do with international editions?

Also happy that ebooks will be doable now. :)

This is great news, because down here in Australia we tend to follow the UK market, so this will make it easier to get your work in the bookstores here as well.

seanan_mcguire

January 20 2014, 17:15:55 UTC 3 years ago

Which is awesome.
