David's Random, Overly Energetic, and Sometimes Sarcastic Updates

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Geez my head is blowing up like a balloon! *sticks pin in it to deflate it* But from the bottom of my heart, thank you, having people I respect so much enjoy my books and support me gives me confidence :)

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

That's what fans and friends are for! :)

I hope your book is really available here in the Philippines. It's hard to find one and I want a copy so bad (the entire series) but it's in special order here. :(

Aww thanks! It's only available in paperback on Amazon.com which ships from the US :( Ebooks are unfortunately the easiest and cheapest way to get them in the Philippines. I really want you to get a chance to get them!

Well the Moon Dwellers is better than quite a few on that list that are regarded as top dystopian reads. The more lists the books are on, the better!

Thank youuuu!! I'm doing my best!

[David]

This seems pretty cool! Read Most of these with my daughters. Can't seem to get into The Maze Runner and the 2nd book Seven Kingdoms, Fire, starts so weird and Katsa is nohwere in sight. Obviously The Country Saga should be added to the list of 15 along with the Dweller Saga

I'm starting to see this list being shared more and more now. Cinder's author just shared it on her facebook page!! Also have seen it on twitter a few times now. It's really gathering momentum! I've read all but 3 of the series on the list. Go, David, GO!!

[Chris]

Are you the only self-pubed on that list David?

Ooh wow, that's INCREDIBLE!! I keep seeing spikes in sales and no doubt it's because another author on the list shares it :) I'm in shock to be honest!

If there is anybody in this world who deserves representation, it's me...well, and then you;-)

Seriously though, I am soooooo happy for you. You are an inspiration to us all!

[chucklesthescot]

What fantastic news! Karen's right, time for us to re-double our efforts!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Ha! Agreed! I know a lot of writers (like you!) who deserve it so much! But thanks, man, I appreciate it :)

Let the pimping out begin - first step Pinterest! Woot woot!

[Karen’s Library]

I've been Pinteresting, tweeting, and facebooking!! WOOT WOOT!!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Ha! I don't even know what Pinterest is but it sounds good!

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

Pinterest is a social media site and its basically photos that you "pin" to your own boards of your interests. You follow other people and their pins, etc. A lot of people use if for recipes and crafts, I think that's the most popular. But now people use it for everything, and its really popular for bloggers. You really have to go to it and use it for it to make sense, but its a lot of fun!

[Karen’s Library]

David, go sign up and follow me, Jenny, Heidi, Lolita, and even Hugh Howie just joined. When you click on the pins we did of the article, it takes you to the article. The pins have to link to a website. It's very popular! I follow several authors and blogs. Marissa Meyer is interesting as she pins ideas for books, pictures of what Cinder, Scarlett, etc., could wear... It's kind of addicting!

You can look at everyone who pins or just the people you follow. Your pins go out to everyone and the people who follow you.

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

I just did a blog post on the article for our friend!

btw David, you should totally join Pinterest, it's awesome!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Wow!! You all are crazy-awesome (in that order lol!). I don't know how you keep up with all this stuff! I'll try to sign up soon but I'm not sure I can handle one more social networking addiction at the moment!

Pinterest isn't as addicting for me as Twitter is (some of you guys may know that I babble about random stuff all the time...).
Though Tumblr is as rare as Pinterest. I think I'm only on Pinterest to tweet movie stills, LOL.

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

Pinterest is really fun, but I'm not as addicted to it as I am Goodreads. I really like pinning pics, though--Adele might really like this one. I see a lot of photographers and photography on it, and I just love it! I also really love to add to my "Places I want to Visit" Board!

[Joanna Marie]

Pinterest addict here! :D

[Sophia]

Uh-oh. I better prefer for the Pinterest is awesome blasted at me, lol.

Should I run behind Twitter? O_o

[Joanna Marie]

@Jenny: yep, pinning these interesting photos makes a wonderful vision board! A quick bucket list too for travels and other goals. :)

[Lola]

I also love Pinterest for finding great recipes and I usually just pin all my blog posts.

@Joanna, what is the link to your pinterest account?

[Janie]

Pinterest is a very dangerous place. I'm fully addicted :P http://www.pinterest.com/sjanee11
