Weekend Update!

Even though I'm supposed to be working on something I promised a certain someone I'd finish by Monday, I thought I'd procrastinate just a few minutes longer and show you the cover of my May release, CRUEL SUMMER---



I have to admit that I'm really excited about it! And since I never really have a cover in mind when I'm writing the book, I'm always so curious to see what the art department comes up with, and this time they did not disappoint! I love the vibrant colors, the relaxed, summertime vibe-and I think it really suits the story. . .

Also, while I'm on the subject of covers. . .


That is the cover for the German edition of FLY ME TO THE MOON-- on sale in Germany in February 2008! And if any of you Sprechen Zie Deutsch, could you be so kind to drop me a line and tell me if my clumsy translation of "Next Please!" is correct?

That's all for now--
Have a good weekend everyone!
