In a Cosmopolitan magazine round-up of the best new books of 2021, guess what soon-to-be-released memoir by a badass woman of the resistance was included among its selections?
We then learned that Marie Claire magazine had also chosen the senator's book as one of the best new books in the coming year. So now you know who and what I have been channeling almost every waking hour (and many dreaming ones) in the last year. The book is due April 20, 2021 from Viking, and is available for pre-order now.
And now it's back to the salt mines for me. Work continues, even on this book, for which first pass pages and captions for the photo insert must be given a final read with a further election update to be added before the new year.
Plus, y'all, I'm editing a really wonderful book, a sweeping family saga by an Armenian American author whose name you will soon surely know.
Oh wow!!! This is such wonderful news. Your incredibly diligent hard work has come to such a fine fruition. Mazel tov!! I am so happy for you.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteReading your post brings such profound joy that tears are welling up. I've requested that our public library purchase a copy of Senator Hirono's book and look forward to April 20, 2021, as well as to reading the family saga that you are currently working on.
ReplyDeleteYour work inspires me in my work. Sending love always. So grateful to have found you through Sabine's blog whenever that was, some years ago now.
Congratulations! What an achievement!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cool! You're such an impressive person to take all of that input and organize it into something readable. So happy the finish line is in sight. I still think your name should be on the cover.
ReplyDeletePreordered! I love all the book’s you’ve had a hand in, important stories, wonderfully told. This one will be especially interesting to me because I’m half Japanese. Much love.
