w00t! w00t! w00t! Lucky Russian readers just discovering one of the most perfect books. (sigh)
Pozdravleniya!:D
Congrats!
Hi Keira --The thought of the book in another language -- and hey, I think I get ANOTHER COVER too -- is so bizarre. It would be like your kid coming home speaking Greek all of a sudden.
Hi Moth --Ummm ... you're welcome. I think.I used a Russian word in Lord and Spymaster. I hope I got it right ...
Hi nbb --Thank you kindly. It's the nice people in the Berkley foreign rights department who do this for me.
Congratulations, Jo!I was in Russia for 3 weeks after I graduated from High School as a Student Ambassador - wonderful experience!Awesome news!
Pozdravleniya!=Congratulations in Russian.
Hi Moth --I couldn't get any of the online translaters to work for me. I think they don't do well with other alphabets.Jessamyn, in My Lord and Spymaster, lived in Russia for a few years when she was a teenager. JoB
Hi Tara --I wouldn't set a story there ... that's a huge, complex culture and it'd take mountains of commitment to do it justice. But my characters were there in backstory so I did a little reading. Traveller's tales from 1800 or so. Very interesting.JoB
Loved the joke. :) :) I'm so looking forward to meeting you in person at National!!
Hi Keira --Me too. I've been looking at the workshops. Cool cool stuff. They've decided to hold every workshop I want to attend simultaneoously with two other workships I want to attend. How do they KNOW? And I want to see Fisherman's Wharf. (Why does that word have an 'h' in it? So unnecessary.)
