The next book: a pre-taste at the Frankfurt Book Fair
I promised to keep you updated, didn’t I? Well, it’s high time I told you why blog posts have been few and far between on Mad About Macarons lately.
I’m excited to tell you that my next book will be published with Waverley Books in the Spring, 2015. Waverley Books has gone though some recent changes: in October 2013 the Gresham Publishing Company completed a management buy-out from DC Thomson Books, so both Geddes & Grosset and Waverley Books are now imprints of the Gresham Publishing Company Ltd. As you can see, even signing the contract was serious yet fun. Ron Grosset and Liz Small of the Gresham Publishing Company have the most contagious sense of humour, which is just one of the many reasons why I love working with them. It has been worth the wait.
Ron Grosset and Liz Small are currently at the Frankfurt Book Fair 2014: Hall 8, Stand A12 (8-12 October).
The manuscript, recipes and photos are perhaps ‘finished’ on my side, but now the work really begins. As we get cracking and this new baby takes shape, I look forward to sharing interesting snippets with you during the publication process, as it unveils…
Jill Colonna
Yeah congrats Jill! I read about it a few days in facebook too. Will it be available in most foreign countries? it’s going to be in English right?
Thanks so much for all the kind wishes here, on FB…
@Helene – it’s in English but for foreign languages it’s early days yet. That’s what Waverley have been up to in Frankfurt and I’m dying to speak to them. This is when it starts to come together. Thanks, @Maureen & Shirley, too – it is exciting! Will keep you all posted on le blog.
@Kim – great to hear: 10 macaron batches in one week? Sounds like you and Liv are definitely hooked 😉
Congratulations Jill so well deserved. – I cannot wait for your new book and to share the snippets during the publication process – it must be such an exciting time.
Oh yes!!! We dusted off your first book last week to make macarons and we’ve become slightly addicted again. With four batches in just 10 days, we’re hooked! Looking forward to the new book!!!
You beauty! I can’t wait to hear more about your new book.
Thank you – can’t wait to see it finally too. Not there yet but so far exciting. Dying to show you as it unveils and yes, Jérôme – would love to do a book tour in Glasgow, one of my favourite down-to-earth cities! A bientôt. Time will fly!
Great Jill. I did wonder when the next blog was coming. I look forward to reading them very much.
Congrats on the new book!
Looking forward to your “book tour” stop in Glasgow! 🙂
Congratulations – can’t wait to see the new book!
SO excited for you Jill! can’t wait to see it!
Fantastique Jill! Look forward to hearing what it’s about. Great news.
HOORAY! I knew you had another book in you, Jill!! Such exciting news…and a terrific reason for being scarce!!!
A HUGE congratulations! Well done and well deserved, Jill! Gosh when will we be able to get together in person and have a good old chinwag about it all! I am thrilled for you!
We sure have even more to talk about, Jamie. Thrilled for your new project too. Let’s say as soon as you can come to Paris!
