When I am capable of speech again, I’ll come back and type up a better post than this. Today, this is all I’ve got:
I sold my book and now I’m allowed to announce it. The World’s Strongest Librarian will be published by Gotham Books (Is that not an awesome name?) in 2013.
Why oh why did it happen? Not just because I write, but because you read.
I love you all.
More details to come.

Josh, that is great news!
Pretty cool, huh?
Congratulations, Josh! That is exciting news. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed reading your blog for a some time now (this is my first time commenting here). I look forward to reading your upcoming book!
Thank you!
That’s AMAZING news!! Glad to have been there throughout the process
Remember when this blog just came to reality, you’ve put in a substantial amount of work and you deserve the praise!
Thank you Robby. I’ll be writing about the entire process as I go. I think you’ll get a kick out of the insider’s view, although I’ll have to keep a lot of things vague.
Hell Yes! Congrats brother can’t wait to see it. That thing should sell a million copies. Let me know when you need press we’ll do an interview.
Thank you Casey. I’m sure if you interview me it will easily sell a million copies THAT DAY.
I am the Oprah of small community newspapers in Chicago.
Congratulations! I enjoy reading what you write. Looking forward to reading your next book.
Thank you Sue. This one is going to be…quite a bit better.
Congrats Josh! ‘Bout time
No kidding!
Yay!!! Congratulations. I can’t WAIT to read it. xoxo
Me either!
Fantastic news. And SO well deserved. Jealous. Jealous. Jealous! Revel in your time! Best regards, P.
Thanks Paul. Reveling in 3.
Congratulations! This is AMAZING!!! I can’t wait to hear more. I’ll definitely reserve a copy (see if you can convince them to have a Kindle edition as well!).
Awesome News!!! Congratulations!
Thank you Greg!
Well done sir. I’m fairly certain that it will not disappoint, however, I’ll pass along my favorite words of wisdom: “good work, now don’t f¥^k it up!!” congrats bro, that’s awesome:)
Fingers crossed.
Wonderful! Congratulations!
No WAY, that’s AWESOME! I will definitely pick up a copy as soon as it comes out. It totally deserves a place in my own personal library
Can’t wait to read it!
Heck YA
. I can say i knew you way back when. I assume we can snag you for a BlogcastFM interview as a part your promotional plan?. Can’t wait to read it Josh. That’s so awesome and inspiring to see.
You know it!
This is just awesome.
Pretty cool, isn’t it? I’ve no doubt that a year from now I’ll be a punchline trainwreck diva like Lindsey Lohan, but hopefully it will be a fun year.
Brilliant news Josh, and actually I was surprised it took this long as you’ve always had such a great story *and* great way of telling it. Plus the knowledge that Bruce Wayne is (probably) funding it must make it even better.
It is all the sweeter knowing that the vigilante billionaire playboy is lurking in darkness, waiting to take out my foes.
Fantabulous!!!!! MAZEL TOV!
Thanks Jodi!
Cool! I was going to say, let us know when it’s out, but of course you’ll do that.
How very exciting – congratulations! Now go celebrate.
Congratulations Josh!!
That’s fantastic!
You got the call we all want to get. Great news.
