Excited that I'm going to be a betafish for Colleen Lindsay's Sekrit project! Got my password and have been playing around with the site.
Here's what I've received in either my mailbox or on my Kindle through Netgalley:
1. THE CELLAR
This is being pitched as Romeo and Juliet meet zombies.
2. COMPULSION
This is a very intriguing tale of a teen who uses prime numbers to cope. If the numbers aren't, he almost totally loses control. Love how the author shows this in very haunting detail.
3. THE GODDESS TEST
This one has been all over Twitter and it looked so good that when Net Galley put the Kindle button back up, well, I had to request it!
4. 90 DAYS TO YOUR NOVEL
Mandy at YA Books Central recommended this book, so I downloaded it. Really enjoying the exercises(one of which I shared with everyone at in Internet land).
5. Ok, I couldn't resist even though son was like, "Mommy, she's a hootie momma!"
She's a mummy from Egypt which I thought was perfect considering my upcoming book has Hathor, the Egyptian goddess of romance and a number of Egyptian mythology creatures that take over a high school.
**Guilty pleasure:
Friend just emailed me asking if she could take son to a homeschool play date at a nearby park. This means I can write for an hour! Yay!
