The Fortune Cookie (Chronicles) goes to China

As American as Apple Pie

A live-action blog to go with the book, The Fortune Cookie Chronicles on how Chinese food is all-American. There are more Chinese restaurants in America than McDonalds, Burger Kings, and Wendys combined. The Fortune Cookie Chronicles is for anyone who has ever wondered who is General Tso and why are we eating his chicken; why Jews eat Chinese food on Christmas; and who really invented the fortune cookie. New York Times reporter, Jennifer 8. Lee, solves enduring mysteries of Chinese cuisine through a mix of in-depth research and entertaining personal anecdotes.

My editor, Jon Karp, just let me know that we’ve licensed Simplified Chinese rights (Mainland China) to Shanghai Sanhui Culture & Press. Which is very very exciting. Yay.
Even if fortune cookies won’t be sold in China, a book about them will be. The best part of foreign rights is how they are titled and the new cover. I’m intrigued what they will do.
