| My novel The Strikeout Artist, which chronicles the brief baseball career of Franz Kafka, will be published this fall by the incredible BlazeVOX [Books]. Preorder links and appearances/readings to come! I hope you'll read it, because I am SUPER proud of this book and the beautiful job BlazeVOX has done with it. I've been named co-editor of Miami University Press, and I couldn't be happier or more honored to be part of its history and mission. Next up for the press is our fantastic forthcoming novella Sita in Exile by Rashi Rohatgi, which will deserve every bit of glowing attention it gets.
So happy to announce that I was awarded tenure in the Department of English at Miami University of Ohio this very summer. As they say in academia, WHEW. (Thanks to *everyone* who pulled me over the finish line!)
Writing Your Novel from Start to Finish is set to receive an all-new printing and new lease on life from Writers Digest Books, now part of Penguin Random-House. |
