Congratulations, Kate!


(Note: this is NOT a real gun–it’s a stunt gun used for a Nancy Drew cover shoot. Also, please note her signature Diet Coke in the background…)

This lovely editor, aka Kate Angelella, was promoted to Associate Editor at Simon & Schuster’s Aladdin. In addition to being my editor, Kate also edits the sparkly Lauren Barnholdt and the amazing Kekla Magoon among other awesome authors. I’m superproud and thrilled that Kate was promoted. She’s an amazing editor AND writer who has both a commercial and literary eye. That’s hard to find–no doubt.

Congratulations, Kate! We’re all so, so proud! πŸ™‚

    Okay, guys. I've got to close the comments again. I can't have swearing on my blog. The comment that was made was completely unnecessary and thank you all for leaving kind comments. I'm so sorry the blog has to be closed for commenting due to one person's inappropriate remark.
