My Surreal & Exciting Day: The photo shoot for the LIVE THROUGH THIS book trailer!
Earlier this year, I wrote a concept for a book trailer for Live Through This that I was really excited to make. But a day or two later, I decided to give up on the idea. I didn't have the money, the skills, or the models to make this project happen.
My husband, Dwayne, didn't give up though. This summer, he talked to a girl who recommended the ( Read more... ) -

On the blog: Geeking out IN YOUR FACE over the Star Wars "Machete Order"!
Okay, people! I'm here to spread the joy of the Star Wars Machete Order!
Are you ready for this?
Until recently, when pondering the best order in which to watch the Star Wars films, the only options seemed to be either 4, 5, 6, 1, 2, 3 or 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Or, you know, some people choose just 4, 5, 6 and leave it at that.
But then I came across this ( Read more... ) -
Blurbs! LIVE THROUGH THIS has blurbs!
I want to tell you about a book that I wrote for part of 2010 and almost all of 2011. It is a story that I never expected to tell, and with less than five months until this book is be published, I am equal parts thrilled and terrified that I did tell it.
(Okay, that's kind of a lie. The thrill is definitely there, but the terror is much higher than ( Read more... ) -
I have a new Blog (in addition to this old one)!
My critique partner, Michelle Andreani and I are co-writing a Young Adult novel. This week, we launched a new joint blog called WE HAVE WORDS where we will share our experiences writing together as well as talk about books and other things that we adore. We will love it if you'll take a look! ( Read more... )
