The Threepenny Editor

More client successes to announce!

I'm pleased to share a round-up of good news for some of Threepenny Editor's past and current clients. I'm especially happy for client Elie Axelroth, whose very first short story, "The Sound of Emptiness" was just published in The Packingdown Review.

This spring also brought unexpected good news for poet and novelist Sweta Vikram, whose article will be adapted for national radio. Congratulations!

Glenn Damato's sailing memoir, Breaking Seas, hit the 20,000 sales benchmark. He was approached by a major production company about an adaptation, and also was interviewed on LA radio. He is currently finishing a novel.

I admired Kathleen Colvin's strong, sympathetic portrayal of Roman matriarch Fulvia, Marc Antony's (much) better half, when we worked together in 2008–2009. I couldn't be happier that Holly Lorincz of the MacGregor Agency feels the same way. Best of luck as the novel goes out to editors!

Fellow runner and prolific writer Tony Russo is writing a brilliant YA series set in an alternate-history WWII England. Divertr Press accepted THE DARKEST HOUR for publication last fall, and I can't wait to see it on the shelves soon.

Viking Books is publishing Tererai Trent's children's book, The Girl Who Buried Her Dreams in a Can, and it is available for preorder here. (Tererai has her own Wikipedia page. You should read it. She's a fascinating person, and Oprah thinks so, too.)

Last and certainly not least, multiple foreign rights for Georgia Clark's THE REGULARS were sold following the manuscript's sale to Emily Bestler Books (an S&S imprint) this winter. She's currently at work on her third novel.
