Closer Magazine!

Hey Everyone-

Well, I'm gearing up to start work on ECHO, book 2 in my new SOUL SEEKERS series- (I just finished book 1, FATED, which will be in stores on 05.22.12- see the awesome cover in the blog post below!)- but wanted to take a few moments to share a few things:

Last December while on book tour in Paris, I did this interview for Closer magazine (it's like People only in French), and since it was just sent to me, I wanted to share it with you!

Also, we've been working on it for a while now, and I'm happy to say that the International Immortals page is now up, featuring covers and links from all over the globe! You can see it HERE!

And, for those of you in the Chicago area, I'll be heading your way next April for the RT convention. Last year the Teen Day in L.A. was amazing--and this year's is gearing up to be just as good if not better--so I really hope to see you there! To see my scheduled events, click HERE!

Also, the Pen Fatale Tour made Amazon's Omnivoracious Blog! To read it: click HERE! To see my Q&A where I talk about my favorite tour moment, favorite literary character, and favorite shoes--click HERE!

And last but not least, I'm thrilled to announce that the SOUL SEEKERS series has sold translation rights to the UK & Germany . . .with more to come!

Have a great day, all!

FATED!!!!

Dear Readers:

While it's true that I've been a very bad Blogger, Facebooker, & Twitterer ( <-easier written than said!) as of late, I had a really good excuse:

I was on deadline.

But now that I've kicked that deadline to the curb, by, um, finishing the book--I'm back!! And I wanted to share something awesome that happened in the meantime:

I got the final cover for FATED, book 1 in my new SOUL SEEKERS series, that'll be in stores on 05.22.12 (to be followed by ECHO, MYSTIC, & HORIZON in 2012/13!)

And I LOVE it!

I mean, I truly LOVE this one!

And, I hope you love it too!!!

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 . . . .

:)
