spring break and spinach

I know it's not technically spring or spring break but it's the point in the year where I start pretending I'm in the picture above. In actuality I'm doing the usual (carpool, lunch-making, homework-helping, appointment-keeping, and WRITING). But then on Friday I take off for Raleigh and the last stop on the Breathless Reads tour!

I also have two great articles to share that featured MATCHED. The first was in the New York Times Magazine and I was thrilled that they included MATCHED as part of their roundup of YA dystopian novels in the market right now. Click here to read the article. The second was in the Ogden Standard-Examiner. Teen columnist Alexandra Burton interviewed me and she was delightful. Click here for that interview. She had a lot of great questions about how to fit in the writing process around being a mom.

And I wanted to give a heads-up that we've added another event on March 19, 2010. It's here in Utah at the Orem Costco. I have never signed in Costco before. So please feel free to come by because if no one shows up I can't promise you that I won't go buy a big tub of their spinach artichoke dip and eat it all up. I am addicted to that stuff.

I've responded to all the comments in the last two posts–thank you so much. I know I'm not the best at replying but I truly appreciate your comments. If you've asked a question and I've missed it somehow please feel free to comment here.
