I'd much rather see you have "champagne problems" than bad ones! You earned this and you 100% deserve it, lady. So cool to get insight on some of the behind-the-scenes and how the houses replied. It sounds like Scholastic responded with such love; I can't wait to see how you blossom with them!

@LindsayPuckett 3 года назад

Honestly, me too LOL and thank you so much!

Lindsay...I just randomly stumbled on your channel, and I've never clicked SUBSCRIBE fast enough! I self-published a middle grade novel, but my dream since I was 14 has been to be traditionally published. Thank you for sharing your journey. Not gonna lie, my eyes may have gone a little misty watching you talk about your auction and book deal :) You've become a huge inspiration to me. I just wanted to say the biggest CONGRATS!! So well deserved, and I can't wait to watch your career continue. I can't wait for more videos. And I can't wait to read The Glass Witch next falllllll.

@samcampbell2278 3 года назад

Also. Your enthusiasm and joy are infectious! RU-vid, publishing...it all needs more positivity like that 😀

I'm so glad that the publisher of your heart knew that you were the author of *their* heart and were willing to rise to meet you. it sounds like it's a real match. well chosen Lindsay (and well negotiated Samantha)!! also... your style in this video is absolutely GLOWING, all your jewelry and those EYE EARRINGS

I can just imagine four different publishing houses on the phones while your agent does that fast prattle to auction your book off!

@LindsayPuckett 3 года назад

@LindsayPuckett 3 года назад

Thank you, Trisha!!

@candaceifloyd1820 3 года назад

I love the hippie, baby-Trelawny vibes you've got going on in this video. I'm wondering, with the weird ownership drama that's happening with Scholastic right now, has any of that trickled down to you as an author? Has your agent or editor talked to you about any ramifications that might have for you or is it just kind of an at-the-top thing that doesn't affect the day-to-day business?

@LindsayPuckett 3 года назад

so far nothing has impacted us lowly plebs haha

@candaceifloyd1820 3 года назад

@@LindsayPuckett haha that's good! I heard about that whole thing and I was like, oh no but Lindsay just announced she's going to be a Scholastic author, don't eff this up for her Universe!!!! 🤣
