Gregory K at Gotta Book has a book deal. Go there, read the details and leave your congrats.
Now that you're back, you know what I like about this? Well, yes, anything that is positive for bloggers, especially lit bloggers, especially kid lit bloggers, is good.
But also, this is the best type of Cinderella story. In that it isn't. Gregory K. has been working hard, making contacts, writing, and it has paid off. This didn't happen to him; he made it happen.

Thanks for the link, Liz...and thanks, too, for being a VERY early GottaBook "supporter." All you early folks are the reason things worked so well for me. And you are right -- while this story has a wonderful element of Cinderellaness, it wouldn't've worked the way it did without lots of hard work and tons and tons of preparation. Mind you, I'd've taken a total fluke! But for me, at least, it's sweeter this way.
I can't wait to read your progress on the book & the books themselves.
