An announcement

So. Some exciting news, though for some reason I seem to be having trouble figuring out a way to announce it.

Basically, I went ahead and got myself a book deal! And a real live, not-imaginary book deal, at that. It's with Villard, an imprint of Random House, and I'm still not even sure how to contain my disbelief and excitement over this.

Here's what happened: After the AP story came out in January, I got approached by a few literary agents and started seriously considering whether or not I wanted to write a book. To be honest, I wasn't sure. After meeting with some people and stressing myself out about it, I decided to go ahead with it. I chose an agent and began writing. That was two months ago, and I haven't been able to stop ever since.

When I felt I had enough pages to show, I put together a book proposal which was sent out to publishers last week. Villard offered me a deal and I gladly accepted it.

Needless to say, I'm fucking thrilled.

I want to thank you all for reading and responding so positively to this blog. Many of your comments and emails are what gave me the confidence to actually go ahead with this. Who ever thought I'd go from cab driver to "blogger" to soon-to-be-published author in just a year and a half? I still can't quite believe it myself.

Anyway, I plan to continue driving the cab and doing the blog, so if you keep reading, I'll keep writing.

Congrats on the book deal. i hope it comes out in paperback so I can afford to read it. I would think that you could save yourself some writing by just showing pictures, you know what they say, a picture is worth.....
Frankly, I am envious, but hey, I also am happy for you.

If you can't afford to tip the minimum amount, much less at all, you can't afford to take a cab (or eat out), period. Sorry. Our mass transit system here in New York City is quite useful, though.

I noticed you're not taking donations anymore....that's a good thing because it shows you're not out for just an easy buck, I mean, you aren't homeless and hungry. Now with your book deal, you will hopefully quit bitching about tips and begging for money so much. I like your writing, but I don't think you should have such expectations on people about the tipping. You never know what their situation is....they could be going through a really hard time. Don't be so judgemental. Anyway, congratulations...we all deserve a break...now you have yours! Good going.

This is great! Congrats.

Will it be a memoir, fiction, or something else? I love to read travel memoirs, and can see this being similar in style since you're basically traveling all of the time for work and meeting interesting people, as the authors of travel books do.
