FAMOUS available for pre-order! YAY!

I'm actually putting the finishing touches on it right now, but Amazon has FAMOUS available for pre-order! It's the last (SNIFF!!) book in the Canterwood Crest series before the super special, HOME FOR CHRISTMAS.

FAMOUS releases on June 11, 2013. Woo hoo!

Merry Christmas Eve!

To all who celebrate Christmas, Merry Christmas Eve!

Anyone tracking Santa on NORAD?

What are you hoping to find under the tree? Or, when you open your gifts, come back and tell me what you got! :)

I've got a new agent!

I'm incredibly excited to announce that after three years, I've signed with a new agent! I'd taken a break from the agent world and had been so busy writing Canterwood that I hadn't started searching until recently.

I'm so lucky and grateful to have been signed by the AWESOME Rubin Pfeffer of East West Literary Agency. This recommendation is all thanks to my bestie, Kate Angelella, who personally knows Rubin and thought we'd be a good match. As always, (don't tell her I said that!!) it appears K was right. :)

Happy, happy holidays!

Happy holidays!

I wanted to let you know that I'll be on a little vacay from blogging as we move into the holiday season. I hope to be able to post at least once to share some SUPER SEKRIT AWESOME NEWS, but aside from that, things will likely be quiet around here. 

I hope you all have a safe, warm holiday filled with loved ones. :) 

Much <3 all="all" p="p" to="to" you="you">

YA for NJ

Thanks to Kieran Scott (Kate Brian), I'm participating in her AWESOME idea: YA for NJ! (Like it on Facebook!)

The basic run down (quoting from the linked PW article below):

Kieran got together "170 young adult and middle-grade authors for a YA for NJ benefit auction, hosted by eBay Giving Works, to fill the coffers of the Community FoodBank of New Jersey." The action, running from November 30 to December 7th will benefit people in need of food because of Hurricane Sandy.

I'm offering up: 

a signed copy of Popular
a signed copy of Comeback
a free 30 minute classroom Skype session

Check out the auction here and please bid for a good cause! 

YA for NJ got some awesome coverage in Publishers Weekly! Yay!
