Sonya Chung's Long For This World


There's a new novelist you will want to keep your eye on---Sonya Chung, author of Long for This World, due in March 2010 from Scribner. Visit her website and read about the novel (there are two excerpts), her thoughts on the book and the process of writing it and getting it published, as well as the interesting "How to Become a Writer: A Memoir." I'm excited about this one. Mark your calendars---March 2010.

She's really good. Maybe she'll be out on the west coast for a reading when her book comes out. Hello to N & co.

I found your site through the korean bloglist. Thanks for sharing her work. I recently created a blog to share my experiences and thoughts on being a korean american adoptee. It's a collection of my short peices, photos, and videos to tell my story. Hope you can come check it out and share your thoughts! I do have an interest in possibly putting it together to make it into a book somehow..any advise will be appreciated since I never wrote a book before nor know the industry. Thanks. KyungMee
