Here is a little info about Jamie Ford to whet your appetite for book group this month:
My name is James. Yes, I'm a dude.
I’m also the New York Times bestselling author of Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet—which was, in no particular order, an IndieBound NEXT List Selection, a Borders Original Voices Selection, a Barnes & Noble Book Club Selection, Pennie’s Pick at Costco, a Target Bookmarked Club Pick, and a National Bestseller. It was also named the #1 Book Club Pick for Fall 2009/Winter 2010 by the American Booksellers Association.
In addition, Hotel has been translated into 13 languages. I’m still holding out for Klingon (that’s when you know you’ve made it).
I’m an alumnus of the Squaw Valley Community of Writers and a survivor of Orson Scott Card's Literary Bootcamp.
My next novel, Whispers of a Thunder God, should be hitting shelves sometime in early 2011. And I'm also working on a YA (Young Adult) series that even my agent doesn't know about...yet.
On the personal side, I'm the proud father of two boys and two girls. Yep, it's chaos, but the good kind of chaos.
