What your books do while you're sleeping

When I was little I always thought the characters in my books came to life at night. I guess it was the books!

Book in May

So i just found out today that my book is coming out in MAY instead of July. How does this make me feel?

There is a lot that I need to do before then.

1. Create a website

2. Start posting here regularly

3. Buy cases of vodka and chocolate

 

Anything I'm missing?

Welcome and Why I was afraid to have a blog

First of all welcome. Thank you for reading my blog. You'll see in a minute how crazy those words are for me to write. I am a person who doesn't feel like her opinion matters much. It is how I have always felt and why I wrote PRETTY AMY.

PRETTY AMY in addition to being funny, is at it's heart about a girl who's parents, then friends make her decisions for her. Amy feels that silence is easier than having a say in her life and who she is.

I am a lot like Amy and it is taking everything I have to put myself out there like this.

SO, I will shout who and what I am: MY NAME IS LISA BURSTEIN AND I'M A WRITER!

I hope you'll come back to see what else I have to say.
