New Sale! This time for teens!

I'm so excited! I just sold a new series for the young adult market!!! (CARPE DEMON is appropriate for teens, but this one will actually be marketed for the YA market)

The book is called the THE GOOD GIRL'S GHOUL'S
GUIDE TO GETTING EVEN.

Here's the blurb about the sale from Publishers' Marketplace:

USA Today bestselling author Julie Kenner's THE GOOD GIRL'S GHOUL'S
GUIDE TO GETTING EVEN, first in a series, in which a bookish high school junior seeks revenge on the cool group of senior class vampires who transformed her into one of the undead, to Ginjer Buchanan at Berkley, in a pre-empt, by Kimberly Whalen at Trident Media Group (world English).

I can't wait to write this book!!!!

I hate to sound clueless but if you don't ask, you don't learn right?

What's a pre-empt?

Great job, Julie! I think the books sound fantastic, and I read a lot of YA, so I'm excited for you!

Thanks!!! And Kristen, a pre-empt is essentially where a publisher makes an offer attractive enough to keep an author/agent from shopping the property around. Does that make sense?
