I have a 3-book deal with Del Rey
Okay, so my agent tells me they announced the deal on Publisher's Marketplace today, so:

Del Rey has purchased my first novel Spellbent and two of its sequels. I believe their tentative plan is to release Spellbent in early-to-mid 2009 and the other books in the trilogy will of course come later.

I'm entirely geeked about this. I got into science fiction and fantasy partly as a result of reading Del Rey authors such as Anne McCaffrey and Marion Zimmer Bradley, so I'm pretty darn happy to have become a Del Rey author myself.

I believe a WOOT is in order. :)

The only Del Rey authors I remember reading as a kid were Alan Dean Foster (not just the Star Wars stuff) and Terry Brooks, although there may have been more.

Congratulations.

Del Rey was one of the first two imprints I was aware of (DAW being the other, thanks to the yellow spines), so I was thrilled that the first major paid work I did in the field was with Del Rey (and my first books were DAW).
