Interview: Can you give us a teaser about book 2?!?

Danny over at Bewitched Bookworms interviewed me for the blog today. We talk about Cecile, Tristan, and Marc, and she does her best to extract a bit of info about Stolen Songbird’s sequel.  Bewitched Bookworms also included me in their love letter event a couple weeks ago, and I wrote a love letter from Marc to his lost love, Pénélope, which you can read here. Danny also wrote a fabulous review for Stolen Songbird, which you can read here. 

 

 

 

 

Guest Post: Top 3 Locations in Trollus + International Giveaway

Today, I’m over at The Reader and the Chef talking about the top 3 locations in Trollus as described with excerpts from the novel. Melissa is giving away a copy of STOLEN SONGBIRD to anywhere Book Depository ships!

 

 

 

The REAL mountain that inspired Forsaken Mountain

So… For those of you who haven’t read STOLEN SONGBIRD, the city of Trollus was buried (but not destroyed) when Forsaken Mountain broke in half five hundred years prior. The mountain in the novel was inspired by a REAL MOUNTAIN that really did break and bury part of a town.  I wrote a blog post over at Rainy Day Ramblings about it, and there is even a video for those of you who don’t feel like reading (ha!).  Heidi wrote a very thoughtful review that she has also included in the post, and she is giving away a copy (US only). Go forth and read/watch!

Guest Post: Why Trolls?

The question I am most frequently asked is this: why did you write a book about trolls? Tabitha was one of the first to ask me said question back in late December, and this was my answer.  She also wrote an awesome review about Stolen Songbird, which you can read here!

 

Interview: How did you strike the balance between making Tristan being sweet and repulsive?

Fellow Strange Chemistry author Sarah J Schmitt conducted my launch week interview on the Fearless Fifteener blog. She was able to snag an early copy of STOLEN SONGBIRD, so she asks lots of great questions.

Sarah’s novel, IT’S A WONDERFUL DEATH, comes out fall of this year.
