Publishers Marketplace Deal Report for THE BONE BRIDES, by Marley Rose-Teter. Imprint: Page Street. Marley Rose-Teter's THE BONE BRIDES, pitched as Howl's Moving Castle by way of Guillermo del Toro, in which a girl must save her changeling girlfriend from a terrifying faerie realm before they both end up trapped in skins not their own, to Lauren Knowles at Page Street, for publication in fall 2026, by Hannah Andrade at Bradford Literary Agency (world English). The PM announcement is decorated with a border image showing a moody autumnal forest and some cute skeleton bunnies.

Well, the rabbit's out of the PM bag! I have a lot of thoughts on what it means at last to be fulfilling the dream I've nurtured since I was 7 years old, but for right now I'm afraid all I have for you is the mental image of me flapping in a circle while I shout, I'M GOING TO BE A PUBLISHED AUTHOR!!

Congrats!! This sounds exquisite and perfectly timed for spooky season 👻

It's getting ridiculous 🧐😵‍💫

I'm seeing AI images in some really unnecessary places (any place) like in an article by a hair salon...about hair salons...why don't you just...use actual pictures...from your actual hair salon????

The ease we were promised was a lie because the way some of these ppl overcomplicate everything.

Quote by PEN America Interim Co-CEO Summer Lopez in the Los Angeles Times reads: "This is how authoritarianism works: You don't have to imprison every dissident; you don't have to sue every newspaper or publishing house. You just do enough of it so that everyone else censors themselves without having to be asked."

"We are at risk of losing one of our most precious freedoms: the freedom to write."

In a new op-ed in The Los Angeles Times, PEN America's Summer Lopez warns the assault on free speech in the United States has "entered an alarming new phase." Read more: www.latimes.com/opinion/stor...
