Happy Holidays to me!

My agent, Roberta Brown, just announced this on Publisher’s Marketplace, so I think it’s okay if I announce it here, too — Berkley has bought three more books in the Iron Seas (steampunk) series. It’s ridiculously awesome news, and I kneel in the direction of New York, where my amazing editor Cindy Hwang resides, and give thanks, and all kinds of stalker-y adulation that will probably make her scared to see me next summer at RWA, but what the hell. What’s the point of sharing great news if you can’t frighten at least a few people with the force of your jubilation?

Really. This means I’ll actually have books that I’m paid to write after the Guardian series is done, and I’ll be able to feed my kid without turning tricks (or whatever it is that I’m supposed to do for money instead of writing). SO HAPPY!
