NEWS! GG5 US pub date has changed

Hey everyone!

I come to you today with big and hopefully exciting news:

OUT OF SIGHT OUT OF TIME WILL BE RELEASED IN THE US ON MARCH 13, 2012.

This is a full week earlier than the previous pub date.  I'm very excited about the development and hope you will be as well.

I do not believe that this will affect any of the international pub dates.  And, in fact, I don't know any international pub dates.  For that information I highl recommend checking with a local book seller.

Thanks everyone for your ...

Publiversary

Hey everyone,

Recently, a bunch of writer friends and I have been talking about writing anniversaries--or publiversaries as I've decided to call them.  Mine, I just realized, is today.

Six years doesn't seem that long, really. But then again it seems like a lifetime.

Everything was different then.  Everything. 

And, as I think about it...

Molly Monday!

Hey Everyone!

I have a love/hate relationship with the holidays. I love the smells, foods, decorations, and holiday spirit. What I don't like is the crazy amounts of traffic, how people get stressed out about buying gifts, etc., and the feeling of having to rush. I think we should just enjoy this time instead of feeling forced to fight the crowds to go buy presents. This is why I make all my presents! :) They are much more personal and I am pretty sure people like them more because they are...

A GG5 Miniexcerpt!

Sisterhood Tourney-Kat's turn!

Hi everybody!

Well, the YA Sisterhood Tournament is still going strong.  Thanks to all of you, Cammie has advanced to the second round.  But now it's Kat's turn.  And let me tell you, she's got her work cut out for her as she takes on one of my personal favorites, Annabeth from the Percy Jackson series.

 

So head on over to the YA Sisterhood homepage and read all about it.

And remember, I'm on Team Kat!
