Italian rights to J.R. Johansson's INSOMNIA, to Newton Compton, by Luigi Bernabo Associates on behalf of Taryn Fagerness Agency and Kathleen Rushall of Marsal Lyon Literary Agency.
Did I mention that Taryn and Kathleen are amazing? Because they really are! So, yay! Newton Compton is very cool and their covers are gorgeous.
Can you tell that I'm excited!? Let me say it in one of my new favorite languages!

ReplyDeleteHi!!! I'm an Italian blogger, nice to meet you!
ReplyDelete"Sono eccitato! Oggi, celebriamo!"
you are female, so you must write: "sono eccitatA"

Malitia.
Deana - I am never one to turn down a party... ;-)
ReplyDeleteHeather - I don't really stop dancing these days. But I'm trying to learn German and Italian dances...bad news, I kind of suck at them. :P
Malitia - Thanks so much for your comment and for educating me! So is celebriamo supposed to be celebriama, also? I'm going to change them and want to make sure I get it correct! It's so nice to meet you!
Thanks again for your kind words everyone! You are all amazing!
"Celebriamo" is a verb (but in Italy we also use "festeggiamo") so it's correct. Adjectives only need to change the final letter, if you are male you must write "O" (for example "sono eccitatO"), if you are female you must write "A"("sono eccitatA").
ReplyDeleteI hope that my english is fine, sorry! XD
I can't wait to read your book!
