I sold my book

August 1st, 2005 · Posted by Ariel · Announcements · 15 comments

After 18 months of incubation and hard work on various permutations of proposals, I just sold my first book! Seal Press will release my trade paperback debut, a memoir/handbook chimera with a working title of And the Bride Wore A Hula Hoop, in January 2007. Hurrah!

    Congrats, Ariel! Maybe that’ll give me incentive for me to do the same. Or, I can just sit on my couch and stare at the popcorn ceiling.
