Playing Catch Up!

Hey Everyone-

Well, it seems I've been very lax about blogging, facebooking, and tweeting lately (yes, they are all action words!), and my excuse is that I returned from the Pen Fatale Tour and went straight into deadline mode.

For those who don't know, deadline mode is a very sorry state of unwashed hair, unhealthy meals . . . well, let's just leave it at that--it's best not to go into too much detail.

For those who do know, then thank you for understanding.

Anyway, after climbing out of the rubble that is my desk, I thought I'd share a few random pics and articles and videos with you, presented in no particular order, so here goes:

Random Video #1, filmed during my Brazilian Book Tour, where I talk about The Immortals series, Brazilian culture, and more!






Random article # 2- a piece in Publisher's Weekly Children's Bookshelf where me and my fellow Pen Fatale Tour Mates spill the dish on group tours! To read it, click HERE.


Random article #3- DEAR BULLY--an amazing anthology where 70 YA authors speak out, yep, including moi, on the horror that is bullying-- featured in PEOPLE magazine--how awesome is that?!




And last but not least, random pic #4- Enjoying a little time off in Seattle with the talented & lovely Mary Pearson & Jessica Brody!



That's it for now--the manuscript won't revise itself!

Or will it?

Hmmmm . . . .

:)

Hello, Aly! How are you? Last week I had a wonderful dream! I dreamed I was interviewing you =) It was so cool and amazing. It seemed very real. I remember I asked you some tips on how to write ... And you treated me so well. Best of all: you were talking in PORTUGUESE! I woke up very happy.
Alyson, I would like to ask you a favor which is very important to me. I have a blog called DIARY OF A TEENAGE MEDIUM, where I write the story of teenager Fernando medium. I'd be very happy if you could access my blog and leave a comment about my work there. This is very important to me. If you can, this is the address: http://diariodeummediumadolescente.wordpress.com/ To you read in English by clicking on the translator who is there ... Thank you Alyson, I await your comment on the blog =)

Hi Ebert - Regrettably, I'm unable to read unpublished works and ideas due to legal reasons, though I wish you the very best with your writing!
