Alaska!

Hi everyone!

Ally here with what is (for me) exciting news: I’m leaving today for Alaska!

Now, this isn’t work travel. This is family vacation travel (a concept that is fairly foreign to me, to be honest).

You see, it is almost my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary (!!!) and my entire family is going on an Alaskan cruise to celebrate. I’m super excited about it.

Don’t worry, I will be working on Embassy Row 2 while I’m gone. Except, instead of working in a booth at Panera I’ll be working in a deck...

Good Luck!

San Antonio, baby!

Hi everybody!

I should be packing.

No. Seriously. I leave tomorrow, and I have no idea what I should wear or take. And shoes! The shoe question is always a BIG one!

Where am I going?

Well, regular blog readers will hopefully remember that I am attending the Romance Writers of America Annual Convention in San Antonio.

If you live in the San Antonio area, please try to come by for the first night of the conference!

Letter to Baby Author Me…revisited

Hi everyone!

Doing a retro-throwback post today!

Because, you see, in a few weeks I’m going to be giving a speech at the Day of YA Pre-Conference at the Romance Writers of America Convention in San Antonio.

(And, don’t forget, I’ll also be signing in San Antonio on July 23. If you live in the area, please come by!)

So that has got me to thinking about this post that I wrote a couple of years ago. It was true then. It’s true now.

And I hope you like it!

Hi Everyone!

I hope everyone had a great weekend! I hope all the Ally Carter fans here in the US had a great July 4th weekend!

My family and I celebrated with a classic American cookout and fireworks at the end.

How about you? How does your family celebrate July 4th? If out of the US what holiday do you love to celebrate in your country?

Do you like hotdogs, hamburgers, or something else?

Fireworks? Just watch them? Shoot them off? Totally avoid them?

Can’t wait to read all your responses!

xoxo,
