PS22 Friday: October 28, 2011
Wild Horses...what can be said about this song? Some prefer the original as done by the Rolling Stones. Others prefer the Sundays version. Whichever you prefer, it's still a beautiful song and I'm eternally grateful that the chorus of PS22 decided to take it on and add their magic.
Weekend Question
I was asked the other day when I'm going to write a vampire novel. My answer to that was a probably never. Not in the YA genre, anyway. But the question did remind me of a poll I'd taken several months ago about what readers wanted to read about most. So this weekend's question is:
What fictional creature do you think is the most under-represented in books today?

Food For Thought: Love Is...
Love is patient. Love is kind.
Love...sucks.

Weekend Question
It's Aloha Friday!
I'm going to start something new here. Every Friday, I'm going to ask you guys a question and I want your honest answers and opinions, no matter how frank.
Sometimes it's going to get heated. Sometimes it'll get silly. What I hope more than anything is that it gives birth to discussion about what we want from books today, both as readers and as writers.
So, today's question is:
Do you think sex has a place in a Young Adult novel?
Leave your comments after the jump.

Daily Kawaii: October 1st, 2011
I dream of one day having a sewing room where I can quilt to my heart's content and sew all the little dresses I can think of to put on our cat.
Yes, I am evil.
But this...this is cute. This is KAWAII. So, I'm sharing.

31 Days of Fairy
About a month ago, I was asked to do an interview for The Fairytale Nerd, a book blog that I think you all should check out. Well, now that it's October 1st, the 31 Days of Fairy event has begun, and I want all of you to go and visit her site and participate in the interviews and in the giveaways.
My interview will be posted on the 25th so do look out for that. There will be a fantastic giveaway of one signed copy of Gossamer AND some swag. (More info on that to come!!)
So, give JoAnne and all of the wonderful authors she intereviewed some literary love and aloha!

PS22 Friday: Mumford & Sons
They're back! Or...I'm back. They've always been here and I've just been a lazy git who needs to get her act together.
Let's have a listen to one of the best renditions of a Mumford & Sons song in the history of ever.
