Teen Read Week Event at Grayslake Library Tonight! & general nonsense.

Posted on October 15, 2008

I’ll be at the Grayslake, IL library tonight at 7 PM for a Teen Read Week Event! I’ve got my vampire goodie bags all ready, so I hope some people show up! It’s a Wednesday and a school night, but I’ve got high hopes anyway. :-)

If you live in the area, please drop on by. It’s a great library too. I take little Max there for Baby Play classes.

In writingish news, I’ve solved my big plot problem. There are still some subsidiary things I need to figure out, but the main tangle is solved. Yay! And, believe it or not, it involved Raven.

13 Questions with the YA Authors Cafe

Posted on October 13, 2008

As part of the whole Teen Read Week celebration (Happy Teen Read Week! Woot!), I was invited over to the YA Authors Cafe to answer 13 Questions. It was a lot of fun. :-) You should check it out AND stop by there every day…they’ve got some other awesome authors that are stopping by as well…All Books with Bite! (and no, that’s not books *that* bite). If you didn’t know, this year’s theme for Teen Read Week is Books with Bite and I’m very happy that Sucks to Be Me has been included in the recommended list.

I’ll actually be participating in a number of events this week — if you live in northern Illinois or southern Wisconsin, I’ll be doing a reading/signing at the Grayslake, IL public library on Wednesday at 7 PM. On Thursday I’m doing another reading/signing, but it’s at kind of a private “Ladies’ Night” in my neighborhood. :-) And on Friday, I’ll be doing a school visit at Benito Juarez Community Academy High School in Chicago. Also on Friday is a LIVE radio interview at 5:40 PM. Busy week this week! (Check out my home page for more details on any of these events)
