<title>Shiloh Walker Sells Three Paranormal Novels</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img alt="shilohwalker.jpg" src="/galleycat/files/original/shilohwalker.jpg" width="138" height="230" class="alignright" />This week novelist <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Shiloh-Walker-profile.html">Shiloh Walker</a></strong> sealed the deal on three new paranormal novels with Berkley. <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Irene-Goodman-profile.html">Irene Goodman</a></strong> from the <a href="http://www.irenegoodman.com/">Irene Goodman Literary Agency</a> sealed the deal, and <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Cindy-Hwang-profile.html">Cindy Hwang</a></strong> at Berkley bought the books.</p>
<p>The first title is <em>Thrill of the Hunt</em>, a paranormal contemporary romance about a werewolf pitted against a vampire who works as a killer-for-hire. Intrigued by her <a href="http://twitter.com/shilohwalker">Twitter posts</a>, GalleyCat caught up with Walker to find out how she landed her most recent deal.</p>
<p>The veteran author outlined her pitching process: &#8220;While I spazzed out (spazzing out is my normal MO), the actual pitch itself was easier than the first one, easier than the second &#8230; gradually, I think it just gets easier and easier as you get used to working with one particular editor.&#8221;</p>
<p>She continued: &#8220;Now, last year was a different story altogether. I write paranormal for Berkley, but I&#8217;m a fast writer and I wanted to branch out and explore romantic suspense with another publisher. So I put together a proposal for a new publisher. Pitching that one?  I think that was even harder than when I&#8217;d originally first pitched an idea to Cindy.&#8221;</p>
