What's This?


Well, it arrived this morning from my agent, but the first page says Random House, and there's four copies for me to sign and return --


Yep, it's a book contract for The Black Wing.

Those of you who have been around for a while know that I've been writing and rewriting The Black Wing for several years now. Formalizing the deal for this novel -- officially due out in hardcover in November of '09 -- feels like I'm finally able to exhale. The Black Wing is considerably bigger and more ambitious than Chasing the Dead or Eat the Dark, and I personally think it's going to scare the crap out of a lot of people.

What could be cooler than having a new book coming out next fall?

How about having two new books coming out next year?

Stay tuned...

Hey Joe, Congratulations. I'm very much looking forward to Black Wing.

On a side note: How come my RSS feed keeps trapping posts that aren't on your blog anymore?

Lawrence, PDL

Congratulations, Joe. If you can work it out, we'd like to have you back out to Tulsa next year for a book release celebration. The Ink Slingers really enjoyed hanging out and talking with you in January.

Awesome! Can't wait to see what you've done with it. And that other news...

Are you trying to say there's something in the water and it's not a Baby Ruth?

Travis told me to come over and check out your big news. Congratulations!!!
