    Galnemer will have another series!

    Announced on today's Publisher's Marketplace, a new sale to Houghton Mifflin Harcourt's Graphia line:

    “Laura Bickle's THE HALLOWED ONES, pitched as "Witness" meets "28 Days Later" in which an Amish girl must protect her family from a violent contagion, even as fear and denial threaten to erode her community from within, to Julie Tibbott at Graphia, for publication in fall 2012 and a sequel in spring 2013, by Becca Stumpf at Prospect Agency (NA).”

    Amish zombies? That taps into both the religious nutjob market and the folks who like to read about zombie apocalypses. Well played.

        Old Order Zombies. Would they still only be able to us tools described in the bible?
        There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.

          Definitely loving the genre crossover!
          Is it me, or is MOBIUS a horrible person?

              Skip Graphia and publish direct through Amazon. You'll get a higher percentage.

                I didn't realize the key to defeating zombies was beards, pie and furniture... similar to how defeating vampires requires onions, holy water and wooden stakes.
                To us, it is the BEAST.

                    Jesus. Galnemer is like a high pressure hose of literature. Congratulations!

                    I should probably finish reading Embers at some point. I liked it, but it got interrupted by school-required readings and I haven't picked it back up yet.

                        That'd be a big fat "yes". It is horror; probably a smidge YA as well, only in that there is no sex. There is horrific, truly awful violence, which, apparently, is a-okay for YA, so long as there are no boobies.

                          I should probably get to Embers - or at least buy the ebook (for the $)!
