The Eagerly Awaited Novel

Finally I'm pleased to announce that I have signed to Harper Collins, and my novel in progress which goes under the working title of 'Sixteen Shades of Crazy' will be published in Spring 2010. The book is the first signing to a brand new commercial literary imprint, Blue Door, created by former Transworld supremo Patrick Janson-Smith. (I like to think of it as the literary equivalent of the Stereophonics signing to Richard Branson's V2).

From the Bookseller: 'Sixteen Shades of Crazy by Dylan Thomas prize winner Rachel Trezise, will be published in early 2010. Blue Door paid a five-figure sum to Broo Doherty at Wade & Doherty for UK and Commonwealth rights. Janson-Smith said that the 'tremendously witty' book would examine the underbelly of society in Cardiff. 'This will do for Cardiff what Trainspotting did for Edinburgh,' he said. 'There will be a bit of drugs, a bit of sex and a bit of drinking?good underbelly stuff.'
