Things are looking up for Callie Hart. The British author transitioned from self-publishing to being the center of a 10-bidder traditional publishing auction with her hit book Quicksilver. The dark romantasy book was released in paperback on December 3 and hit No. 1 on The New York Times bestseller list. The same week, it was announced that Netflix won the rights to adapt the book with a seven-figure deal. Hart will executive produce the movie alongside Elizabeth Cantillon for The Cantillon Company.
“I’ve known about the Netflix stuff for a while now. It’s been a painful secret to keep. Honestly, it feels like a bit of released pressure being able to tell people and share that news,” Hart told Swooon when we caught up with the author shortly after the announcement. “It’s been wonderful. I’ve just been working, but I am going to celebrate properly when I get back home, and I’ve done my laundry.”
