Book News : Awesome reviews for my latest book at Richie’s Picks and at The Reading Zone. Thank you Richie and Sarah!
Tours! I will be going on a prepub tour in March for The Adoration of Jenna Fox! I'll be meeting with librarians, educators, and booksellers in cities to be announced. And later another book tour once the book is published in April. I hope I come to your town. Details to come soon!
Book Trailer! My publisher is in the middle of filming of a trailer for AJF. I’ve read the script and it is perfect–just enough to give you the feel of the book along with some suspense. As soon as I have it–you will too!
The In Group: Jenna is the featured book over at the In Group on myspace. This is a group for teens who want to read books before they are published. Check it out.
Myspace: I’ve done it. I finally joined the myspace crowd. Check it out at www.myspace.com/maryepearson Note the “e” in the middle.
Envy: I popped in and read ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) halseanderson’s and sarazarr’s blogs about the Kindling Words retreat and wishing, wishing, wishing I had gone. Next year, KW or a similar writing retreat is on my list of must do’s, where all you are doing is sharing the art and craft of writing. And yeah, the food didn’t look bad either.
A good cause: A dear friend of mine is doing a wonderful thing with his equally dear son. If you are moved, please support them.
Cheers: To lizgallagher and lisa_schroeder who had their debut books released this month! Hooray! And to gypsyrobin whose second book, LEFTOVERS, was released!
And more cheers to medwriter , and her Edgar nomination for BLOOD BROTHERS! Congratulations!
Work in Progress: In spite of a billion–no, a BILLION--distractions this month, I am seeing the finish line. So, progress has been good. I can't wait to finish this draft, because revision is the part I really love. Back to work . . . |
