Diana's Most Excellent, Wonderful, Fabulous, Exciting, Awesome News!!

Posted by Kathy Carmichael Saturday, April 23, 2005 on 4:48 PM
I had planned to post today all about the fact that I finished revising my partial (finally!) and emailed it off to my critique partners, but far more important information has arisen!

Diana Peterfreund (one of my TARA sisters) has just sold her first book/s!!! Here's the announcement from Publishers Marketplace:

FICTION: DEBUT
Yale grad Diana Peterfreund's CONFESSIONS OF A (SECRET) SOCIETY GIRL, following the irreverent and intrigue-filled adventures of an average college student who just happens to be a member of one of the most notorious secret societies in the world, to Kerri Buckley at Bantam Dell, in a significant deal, at auction, by Deidre Knight of The Knight Agency (NA). Film rights are with Matthew Snyder.

I couldn't be more thrilled and delighted for her! She's also proof positive that a willingness to roll up your sleeves and work your patoot off can and =will= pay off. Diana is an inspiration to any aspiring author: just sit down and keep writing, take rejection under your belt, and keep working at it. Be sure to read her blog!

Back on my partial, I'm really eager to send it to my agent, so I'm hoping said CP's will think the rewrite is peachy-keen. Cross your appendages for me, please! -- KC
