More Translations & a Book 2 Update

In case you missed my agent tweeting this morning, The Selection is now heading to Indonesia and Hungary! Foreign sales are one of my favorite things ever, so this makes me very happy. Some people have asked for release dates for the other countries The Selection is coming to, and I'm afraid I don't have much information on that front. I do know that it is already out in France and Canada, and that the UK, New Zealand, and Australia should be getting it in August. I'll try to find out more for you guys about those.

Also! Everyone keeps asking when Book 2 will be coming your way, or if I could tell you what the name is. We are editing Book 2 right now, and it should be out in the spring of 2013. Stay tuned for an official date coming in the next few months. Also... I can't spill the name just yet. I don't think you'll have to wait too long, but just hold on a bit more!

Soon, I'll be posting some extras about The Selection on the site, and so will the rad peeps over at HarperTeen. Play lists, deleted scenes, and scenes from other POVs will be coming to keep you busy while we all wait for the next book.

And, I know I've already said this, but thanks a gazillion times over for your enthusiasm and for putting The Selection on the NYT Bestsellers List. You guys are keen.

ZOMIGOSH!

You guys! I'm totally a New York Times bestselling author! The Selection made it to #9 on the children's list. My whole world is upside down! Thank you all so much for going out and buying my book. I hope you're having as much fun reading it as I had writing it. THANK YOU!

Release Day!

After years of work The Selection is an actual book that you can purchase and hold and hide under your pillow so no one steals it. Go ahead and order from Amazon or Barnes & Noble, or just head out to your favorite store.

Also, I was out of town when this happened, so I forgot to post it, but if you haven't seen the book trailer yet, here you go:

Finally!

 

We have our Aspen! This is William Moseley, who you might remember from the Narnia movies. This picture is actually of William landing in Vancouver to start shooting! According to the writer/producers Liz and Sarah, shooting for the pilot starts in less that 48 hours! I cannot believe how fast this is going! I'm thrilled to see the trio cast, and I'm beside myself waiting to see what they do. I wish them all crazy great luck!

There have been several other roles cast, but it's getting way too hard for me to keep up with this kind of posting. From now on, I encourage people to check the Selection IMDb page for updates.

If I get any other concrete pilot news I can share, I will. For now, we wait and see!

Also!

As of today, The Selection will also be translated in Brazil! Wahoo!
