The Orange Coast Magazine Interview is out!!

So awhile back I blogged about this awesome photo shoot I did for an upcoming interview in my local glossy, Orange Coast magazine--and it's finally out!!

Amazing photographer, Jen Rosenstein and I holed up in the Laguna Beach High School Girl's Locker room for hours--and when the freshman girl's soccer team came in, we decided to include them, and this is the shot they chose!!



I don't know about you, but I LOVE it!! It's perfect! Which, trust me, has way more to do with Jen's amazing abilities than anything I contributed!!

If you don't get Orange Coast and want to read the interview just click HERE.

Also, if you're heading out to CondorCon today, be sure and stop by the Dealers Room at noon, I'll be signing copies of EVERMORE and would love to meet you!  I'm also taking part in a couple panels, one on: When Does Genre Fiction Become Literature? (I'm hoping I'll learn the answer to that since I've no idea!), and: Writing YA Fantasy, at 3:00 and 4:00 respectively, both in the Balboa room.

For more info on CondorCon click HERE.

But whatever you do this weekend-- be sure to have fun!!

Viva Las Vegas!!!


Just got back from a fun-filled, action packed, two nights in Vegas where we stayed here:





Saw this:




Lost $20 playing this:



Ate more meals than I care to admit, which meant I had to spend some time in here:


All to celebrate my BFF's combined birthday and very recent engagement, as well as EVERMORE making the NYT & USA Today bestseller lists (#4 & #64 this week, respectively!) and the TV rights being sold.


(This photo was not taken in Vegas, it's from a 60's party a few years back, and she may kill me for posting it but I think she looks cute!)


Anyway, it was the perfect getaway--the weather was good, the company great . . . but now I'm afraid it's back to work on UNTITLED BOOK #3 (still no official title!)

But, for those of you attending the CONDOR XVI, San Diego's longest running Sci-fi and Fantasy convention, I'll be signing copies of EVERMORE in the Dealer's Room, this Saturday, February 28, 2009 at noon and would love to see you there!  Please note, there is an admission fee to attend so for more information click HERE.

Have a fun weekend everyone!

Oscar!!


Very short blog post today (working hard on UNTITLED BOOK #3) but I just wanted to say:

YAY SLUMDOG!!

If you haven't seen this movie yet . . .well, you should!! It's message of hope, faith, and love triumphing over all is very much needed in times like these!

Okay, back to the book . . .

Have a good day everyone!
