Goings On
And my new Web site went live last week. I loooooooove it! Couldn't be more thrilled! I gushed about it on Author2Author this week (and included details on who designed it in case you're interested!). BTW, if ever I'm quiet over here I'm at Author2Author every Thursday!
Anyway, I'm really getting excited for this release! Reviews have been coming in and so far all have been good! Yay! That's always a worry. I mean, these books always sound great in my head but then I've got to hope the rest of the teen reading world agrees with me!
My first signing is going to me 9/11/10 at the Borders in Bolingbrook, IL. I love this Borders! They've always been so great to me so I'm thrilled to sign there first! I'll be there from 4-6p.m., yapping and reading from the book so please come if you're in the area! Address is here.
