I am very happy to be able to announce that Gyldendal Undervisning (Education) (scroll down at the linked site) has purchased the rights to an excerpt from Saving the Planet & Stuff for a new textbook for Norwegian students studying English. Gyldendal Undervisning (Education) is the "leading Norwegian publisher of
teaching material for all levels from preschool to upper-secondary
school. "Hurray, Norway!
The request for rights from Gyldendal came out of the blue for a book
that's ink- and-paper edition has been out of print for a while now. A family member once referred to my books to which I hold the rights as properties to be managed. I can republish, I can sell rights, etc.. The Gyldendal request was an opportunity to do some managing.
Managing feels good.
Oh, by the way, tomorrow the Kindle edition of Saving the Planet & Stuff will be free, for the first of three days. Those Norwegian kids will be reading part of Chapter 11. You Kindle readers can, too.
