In which I announce: A Sequel to THE SWEET DEAD LIFE

Had to keep this quiet until the contracts were all signed and agent Jen gave me the okay, but now I am thrilled to announce that next year's THE SWEET DEAD LIFE (Soho Press, May 2013) is going to have a sequel in 2014! I am over the moon with happiness and excitement and honored and humbled that Soho Press and publisher Bronwen Hruska (whose own debut novel Accelerated is out next month has been garnering rave reviews including from Oprah!) and editor Daniel Ehrenhaft wanted more.

Here's the official announcement:

DREAMING ANASTASIA trilogy author Joy Preble's follow-up to the forthcoming THE SWEET DEAD LIFE, again to Daniel Ehrenhaft at Soho Press, for publication in Spring 2014, by Jennifer Rofe at the Andrea Brown Literary Agency (World). Film rights: Eddie Gamarra at Gotham Group
