Marseguro a Science Fiction Book Club selection
Googling this morning I discovered that
Marseguro is listed as a selection
of the Science Fiction Book Club in the U.S. (though not yet in the Canadian version), due out in a hardcover book club edition in April.
I presume it will eventually show up in the Canadian SFBC, but I don’t know for sure: I don’t really know how book club selections work, or the precise relationship between the U.S. and Canadian SFBCs. But, anyhow…
Woo-hoo, again!

Thanks for the info, Anonymous! I appreciate it.
Your book should wind up in the Canadian version of the SFBC soon after (maybe a month or 2), this is usually the case unless something is specifically negotiated otherwise.
A friend who worked in the business.
Actually (at least in my contract) they’re lumped in with a bunch of other rights that the publisher can exercise.
Very, very cool. Your agent can probably fill you in on the details. Aren’t Book Club runs a right that is negotiated separately?
