J.K. Rowling To Publish New Adult Novel
[via]
Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling has taken another step to releasing her first novel aimed at adults. Rowling announced through a press release that she has inked a deal with Little, Brown Book Group.
——
Details concerning what the novel is about, a title, or release date have not been revealed at this time.
Little, Brown Book Group Publisher David Shelley will edit and publish for UK readers, while Little, Brown Book Group Executive Vice President Michael Pietsch will publish in the U.S.
Rowling did note that her upcoming novel will be very different compared to Potter:
“Although I’ve enjoyed writing it every bit as much, my next book will be very different to the Harry Potter series, which has been published so brilliantly by Bloomsbury and my other publishers around the world. The freedom to explore new territory is a gift that Harry’s success has brought me, and with that new territory it seemed a logical progression to have a new publisher. I am delighted to have a second publishing home in Little, Brown, and a publishing team that will be a great partner in this new phase of my writing life.”
