Relocated Deal Announcement

I put my cover (!!!) on the home page of my website last night. It had previously been home to my deal announcement, which I'll now place here:

My book deal was officially announced today! I have been excited about this for weeks, but this made it feel like a real-thing-that’s-actually-happening. I am beyond thrilled to be working with Jill Santopolo and everyone at Philomel! I also can’t thank my agent, Michelle Wolfson, enough! I had the idea of The Perfect Agent in my head for years, with no real expectation of getting anything close. Michelle is even better than the dream. I’m so happy, excited, and lucky to be working with so many awesome people, and I absolutely cannot wait to see these books in the world!

(I also realized I have used my allotment of explanation points for the month – and I actually had to rein it in. But it was totally and completely necessary).

Appeasing the Universe

About two weeks ago, I learned something very important. If you are repped by Michelle Wolfson, and she sells your book, it is tradition to streak your hair an awesome fun color.

There are plenty of reasons for this. Reasons involving deals made with the Universe by those who came before me. I’ll let my agency sister, Kimberly Sabatini, explain the details here.

Now, I’m not about to be the one that tempts the Universe, fate, or any publishing or hair gods who may be watching.

So, in grand Wolf Pack tradition, my hair is now streaked with a pretty fantastic blue. 

Let’s hope this makes the Universe happy. ;)

So, I Have a Blog

Welcome to my shiny new blog!

First, we need to establish a very solid fact: I am a terrible blogger. Like, seriously, truly awful.

I have tried to blog many times over the years and I don't think a single blog got past the first two posts. I'm fairly certain that some of those blogs are still floating around the internet, but since I didn't use them with any regularity, I don't even know the user information to be able to find and delete them. So, I can't promise this space will see a ton of action.

Still, as the year goes on and we get closer to the release of Crossing the Line (yay!), I figure I will need a place to write about some news and events in more detail, which is what I'll use this space for.

I'm also very awful at catching my own typos, so you may, at times, have to decode what I'm trying to say. I hope this doesn't happen too often, but I'm pretty sure it will. However, if you keep reading anyway, I think I'll have some pretty cool things to share!

Stay tuned! ;)
