Yep. It's that time again! Some mini answers to some popular (or generally worthwhile) questions!
HOW DID YOU AND GEORGE CLOONEY MEET?

No comment.
WILL CAMMIE FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED TO HER DAD?
No comment.
WILL YOU LET ME BORROW GEORGE CLOONEY?
No way.
HOW MANY ENTRIES DID YOU HAVE FOR THE WEEK OF GIVING?

Mini blog: last day of vacation!
Hello everybody!
I hope you all had a safe and wonderful holiday season. Mine was really good. For the first time in I don't know how long I had no deadline over the holidays, so I kinda didn't know what to do with myself. I even went to a New Year's party! (but I left early--don't worry, the Apocalypse wasn't entirely nigh.)
But this week Editor Jen will yell "Tag! You're it!" and GG4 will land in my inbox and it will be my turn to work on it for a while, so I'm enjoying my last days of "f...

FAQ Contest Results!
Thank you guys SO MUCH for making last week--the "Week of Giving"--a huge success!
We literally had thousands of entries throughout the week. Which is 1. awesome! and 2. a reason that it might take me a little while to go through them all. And, rest assured, I am personally going through every single one.
That's the bad news. The good news is that I have gone through all of the Monday entries for the FAQ contest and we have winners!

My final gift...
Thank you all for a most excellent week! I hope you've had as much fun as I had.
I know I promised you a final contest...
But I thought I'd just skip that and give EVERYONE a gift instead.
I'm spending Christmas exchanging gifts with my family and loved ones today. I hope this is gift enough to share with all of you.

The Week of Giving: THURSDAY
Welcome back to the Week of Giving!
I've been having so much fun this week. Have you guys been having fun? I'm almost sad to see it end, but I guess it must.
THURSDAY
Your Thursday challenge is this:
1. Predict on which page of the Gallagher Girls 4 manuscript Headmistress Rachel Morgan speaks her first line. (Please note that this will be different from the page in the finished book since manuscript pages and book pages are never exactly the same.)
2. Please note that you may enter only once e...

The Week of Giving!
Hey everybody!
I hope everyone is having a most excellent holiday season! I know I am. Gallagher Girls 4 is safely in the hands of Editor Jen until the new year, so I've got a little time to do exciting things like grocery shop and get my hair cut and...
