I’ve been holding back this news for so long now that I don’t even know how to say it.
I’M REALLY A MAN.
No, ha ha! Actually, it’s that Alice and I have a boo — a bhhuuu — oh, excuse me, I need a Kleenex.
Alice and I have a book deal.
I can still hardly believe it, and I’ve known for a month. I feel like I’ve been sitting on this news for so long I’ve hatched something. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem human, but I’ve taught it to answer the door and it’s planning to cook Thanksgiving dinner all by itself!
But anyway! If all goes well, AND IT WILL, our expanded and illustrated book-version of the website Let’s Panic About Babies! will be published next fall by St. Martin’s Press, which is an actual publishing company with an office on Fifth Avenue, New York City, United States of America, Earth, the Solar System, the Milky Way, etc.
Oh my god, we have so much work to do.

Oh, this is to totally a given. Congratulations!
I am so unbelievably happy for you guys. WRITING WELL IS THE BEST REVENGE. And the best paycheck.
Also I wanna know who your editor is at St. Martin's. I promised one of them a half-dozen chapters in JUNE and haven't sent them yet. I wonder if I should be scared.
I said it yesterday and I'll say it again. YOU DESERVE IT. I don't know Alice. I hope she's not evil.
Only a little bit, Suzy. ONLY A LITTLE BIT.
Huge Congrats to you {and Alice} what an amazing opportunity for you both!
SQUEEE! Congratulations to both of you. And to the publishing company, because damn are they lucky.
Ya'll are awesome. And we knew it was ONLY A MATTER OF TIME.
Somehow Congratulations just doesn't seem like enough – Maybe if I screamed it "CONGRATUALTIONS MOFO!!!!!! AWESOME!!!!!" (spastic squeeling included) – I can't wait to read it.
Amazing news!
Congratulations! and St. Martin's Press too, no small potatoes in the publishing biz. It's nice to see talent and hard work rewarded.
Congratulations!
That is awesome. I will definitely buy one!
Many congratulations! How exciting. (And, yes, you better get busy.)
yes, writing well does seem to be the best revenge. I can't wait to share this with my mid-wife friends so they can spread the panic!
Wow, congratulations. You'd better make it to SF for the book signing.
Congratulations! I love when you tow work together and what really makes it cool is that you work "bi-coastally."
And, I am so excited!
A huge congratulations, Eden. Now the fun begins . . .
I was thumbing through Redbook this afternoon and right there on the top of a page was the announcement about the book… So I had to come by and say congratulations!!
Cool! Who is your editor? I used to work at SMP and made it all the way to Associate Editor before realizing it was not the profession for me and fleeing to library school.
