Hi folks,
Finally got my copy of the Japanese version of Hooked. They made a beautiful book!
Japanese publisher Film Art, Inc. is the publisher. Out of the blue one day, I got an email from a former agent of mine that they'd contacted him and wanted to purchase the Japanese rights to Hooked. He hadn't been my agent on it, so he got in touch with me and they made me a very generous offer of a $2,500 advance against royalties, which I happily took. It's rare for a book to sell foreign rights after it's been out 17 years, but Hooked has been mighty kind to me. I still get substantial royalties each year from Penguin who own the U.S. rights after Writer's Digest went bankrupt.
Film Art, Inc. came out with an initial run of 3,000 copies. Please tell all of your Japanese writer friends they can now buy it in their native language!

Simenon usually wrote 6,000-8,000 words a day, or anything up to 60 to 80 pages and took live car game approximately 11 days to complete a novel. He would mark off on a calendar eight days for composition and three for correction.
Hi folks,. Just got a wonderful Christmas present! Just signed contracts for two more of my novels to be published in Italian by Elliot ...Through their alternating live car game narratives, both mothers reflect on what it means to love your children. A woman named Marie attempts to bond with her children--her video game-addicted son Josh and her younger daughter Abbie--while harboring memories of her own mother's abuse and neglect.
