    DRINKS ARE ON ME ! My novel will be published !

    Greetings ladies and gentlemen.

    On this day, March 10th 2006, I just signed a contract with an American publisher. YES ! After three years spent at looking for a publisher in French, I decided to translate my novel in English and try to find a publisher in the US.

    On my first try on the US side, I received a positive answer from PublishAmerica in Frederick, Maryland. My book, titled : "Overlord : Key to the Freedom", is gonna be published in the US and Canada within the next year.

    And thanks to NS and Gnomey who helped me with corrections. A big thanks to Plan_D, FBJ, Evan, Les and everyones else on this web site for the information they gave in the different threads.

    Weehoo ! Drinks are on me !

    Maestro

    Will this be your ticket out of Quebec?

    @ Les : Unfortunately, it's written in the contract that my publisher gives me only two free copies. I'll keep one for myself and I already said to one of my friends that I would give him the other one. Sorry.

    @ FBJ : It would be great ! I never saw Maryland... May be it's a nice place. Anyway, if it can give me a free ticket out of Québec, I'll take it anyday !

    Well done!

    Will buy one when Amazon gets it.

    I have done some books over the years (boring market research stuff) and overseen others' books to print in science so I know how tough it is.

    Any more in the pipe? Or has it turned you off publishing?
