The Year of Prime and Countdown Begins!! 9 Days Until ...

It's Monday, April 25th.
A wonderful day because my niece turns ten. TEN. And she's a beautiful human being.
And today I begin the countdown. 9 DAYS UNTIL SOMETHING AMAZING.
May 3 is THE day.
Ready?
I WILL EAT CHEERIOS. (Sure, COMPULSION comes out that day, too, but for those of you who are aware of the egregious Cheerios deficit in Colombia ... NO CHEERIOS HERE ... and know about my love for that unsinkable taste ... you also know that I can't wait to pour myself a bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios and ... ahhhh!)


Oh yeah. And COMPULSION comes out that day, too.
I kind of think it's serendipity. Two monumental moments of the year on the same day.

There's also a lot of greatness happening tomorrow for writers out there. My editor, Ruta Rimas, is posting a blog about the writer/editor revisions process over at Books Complete Me where someone will win an editorial review of three pages of her manuscript and someone else can win a signed copy of COMPULSION. On top of that, Ruta and I will be fielding questions for a week! Yep. A week in which you can pick one of the best editorial brains in the business. And, yes, Ruta, a six-page editorial letter is PAINFUL! :-)

So ... 9 days! THE OFFICIAL CHEERIOS COUNTDOWN BEGINS!
