Steven Savile is Really Taking Off!
Hiya,
Steven Saville (WOTF 19)just wrote me with the following great news:
Today's been one of them grand old days we dream about, so I figured I would drop you folks a little line to share - I think it is another one of those career landmark moments...
First up, I heard that Inheritance, my first novel, is being released in Spain by Timun Mas in 14 days, in Russia by Azbooka just after Christmas and in the Czech Republic by Polairs. I'm chuffed to bits, needless to say. It's going to be interesting to have editions of my work in
languages I can't read. I'm sharing the lists with some pretty hefty hitters - that just makes it all the more fun. I am waiting to hear about Germany, so keep your fingers crossed.
And, just as a whacky tidbit - I've been hired to write a 5 minute 'scary movie' for Lions Share (a prominent European heavy metal band)new video...
Hope all is well - and I hear another one of my friends (Ailette [to be published in WOTF 23]) won this quarter! Huzzah!
S.
If you have good news on Writers or Illustrators of the Future, be sure to send it to me so I can post it.
Best,
John Goodwin
