HC signs Sunday Times journo
02.07.08 Graeme Neill
HarperPress has signed a two-book deal with Sunday Times journalist Matt Rudd. The deal for UK and Commonwealth rights excluding Canada was signed by senior editor Annabel Wright from Euan Thorneycroft at A M Heath.
The first book in the deal will be published in 2009. William Walker’s First Year of Marriage is about how the eponymous hero tries to travel the road to true love as a newlywed.
“Matt is a very, very funny guy, and a great writer. There were howls of laughter when his manuscript was circulated here, so we’re thrilled to have him on the list,” said Wright.
