With three contracts signed, sealed and delivered it's time to make the Big Announcement. In fact, my agent - the amazing Marianne Gunn-O'Connor - has already posted the news in Publishers Marketplace, so this is an echo. Yes, my new YA series has legs at last and will be out next year in Canada with Scholastic, in Japan with Shogakukan, and in the United States of America with Penguin Putnam. Very exciting! Stay tuned for who will publish it in the UK and other territories. The Celtic Princess is a mythological adventure series about the 16 year old daughter of the High King of Tara who strives to be a warrior to avenge her father's murder. She is helped by a handsome slave-prince and her beloved wolfhound. I'm also developing the story as a graphic novel.

Congratulations and well down, it's about time that the world gets to see your stories, always knew it would happen, love Rose
Thanks, guys. But, um, Rose I do already have eight books out there in the world, so this is not a new thing.(Check out my website.)
Well done! Although, as you mention, it's not huge news, but it's good news nevertheless. Regarding the graphic novel, have you heard about RoisÃn Dubh? Looks interesting. Here's a link.
