Writer Unboxed

Kath and I are groggy from our re-entry into the everyday world, but we wanted you to know about a few links:

Writer’s Digest published a fascinating interview with Sara Gruen, author of Water for Elephants, HERE.

Interested in checking out the BackSpace Writers Conference, where you can learn from and mingle with editors, agents and published authors? Members of the Mystery Writers of America receive a $50 discount off registration. More, HERE.

The author of Chocolat, Joanne Harris, has just come out with a new novel, The Girl with No Shadow. In Girl, Harris returns to the sensually delicious world of Chocolat, but with a few dark twists. Read more HERE.

Louise Erdrich also has a new novel out, The Plague of Doves, about the ramifications of a horrible crime on a Native American reservation. More, HERE.

More news at the WU Google Notebook, including who just won the Mystery Writers of America Edgar Allan Poe Awards, what’s up with Amazon, and…YA novelist-sensation Stephanie Meyer has written a book for adults? Intriguing!

Therese Walsh co-founded Writer Unboxed in 2006. Her debut novel, The Last Will of Moira Leahy, sold to Random House in a two-book deal in 2008, was named one of January Magazine’s Best Books of 2009, and was a Target Breakout Book in 2010. She's never been published with a lit magazine, but LOST's Carlton Cuse liked her haiku best on Twitter, and that made her pretty happy.
