Hild is the PNBA’s number one bestseller. That means that for the week ending November 16, it’s the overall top-selling paperback at independent bookshops in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, British Columbia and Alaska. Which means: Wow! and Bloody hell! and Woo hoo!
Hild is also number 7 on the Southern California list, and 5 on the Northern California list. Aaaand…number 19 on the national list.
So I’m going to take this opportunity to remind you that books make lovely holiday presents, that buying from your local bookshop is a Good Thing, and that, well, I’ve never been a national bestseller before and it would add a serious glow to my Christmas to be able to add National Bestseller! to the next printing of Hild.
Anywhere I’ve been in the last month will have signed copies. But if they don’t, or if you want one personalised, I’ve been thinking about establishing a relationship with a new, local bookshop that just so happens to be right next door to the pub… So if you’re interested in being able to get something signed, personalised, and shipped to you, let me know and I’ll set it up.
Hild is a #1 bestseller!

I finally ordered it this week. I have a signed copy of Ammonite, so I'll just trace your signature from that one and add it to this one. Caty'll never know ;)
Alright then! But if she does notice, I'm happy to actually sign another one…
Hearty Congratulations! Will be watching as Hild to rises on the National list

Oh, that would be so very cool! Fingers crossed…
You are too kind!
Would love to get a personalized copy—possibly more than one, if that's not being greedy. I've been giving it out for birthdays, but there are still some folks with early birthdays who need to get it for the holidays instead.
Was in Powell's bookstore in Beaverton, OR on Wednesday and saw Hild on their main display as people enter the building. I had to stop myself from bragging to an employee that “I know that author”. :) So please for you and Hild – which I will give to my sister for Christmas.
The 3 pb copies of Hild that I ordered from Third Place arrived today, personalized and signed for my friends Susan and David, Mary Anne and Linda, and my daughter, Rachel. All are avid readers. I know they'll love getting their copies for Christmas, and love Hild's story. Thanks so much, Nicola!
