Kristen Lippert-Martin: SOLD!

SOLD!

That's my new favorite 4-letter word.

More details when I can pull them together but here's the big news:

Alison Weiss at Egmont has acquired world English rights to debut author Kristen Lippert-Martin's Tabula Rasa. In this contemporary YA thriller, a 16-year-old girl held in an isolated research hospital undergoes a forced experimental treatment to erase all recollection of her past. But when the procedure goes awry, she must face off against mercenaries sent to eliminate her once and for all. The projected pub date is fall 2014; Molly Jaffa at Folio Jr./Folio Literary Management brokered the deal.

Here's the link for the announcement in Publishers Weekly!

Wow, this sounds great! Haha I was afraid I would forget the book without adding it to my goodreads shelf, so I put the book into the goodreads database for you (it's VERY limited information). Here's the link to it so that you can update all the fun stuff when it comes out!!!! :D http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17311628-tabul...

Ooh, it sounds perfect for me - exactly the kind of thing I like to read! And you have Blythe Woolston on your blog list, which is another tick in your favour ;-) Fingers crossed it sells to Australia!

Congratulations again! Sorry to have scooped you on Twitter, although I saw people congratulating your agent on the sale posting ahead of me. When my last book sold, I started getting contratulatory tweets and emails while I was at the grocery store and had no clue how they knew! After that, I knew I had to subscribe to PW.
