MY DAY AT ALA

Wednesday, June 27th, 2007

I’ve quite lierally just hopped off the train here in NYC after the ALA conference in Washington DC. While I was there, I got to meet lots and lots of fabulous NINJA LIBRARIANS, saw other authors, and even saw some old friends!
I’ve made a little video of the Printz Awards ceremony, which is pretty much [...]

A WEEKEND OF BOOKTASTICUS!

Monday, June 4th, 2007

What a weekend! Signings! Book Expo America! Parties! So much to tell you about!
Right now, I am in Pennsylvania, at Chez Johnson. I drove down here last night, very late, in the middle of a huge thunderstorm. There is nothing like driving through New York in a blinding rain to give you a sense of [...]

THE NO ME GUSTA/ME GUSTA POST

Thursday, May 31st, 2007

Tonight, friends, I was out celebrating the release of Girl At Sea. This is something I usually don’t do. Not Girl At Sea, specifically, but book releases in general.
Book releases are strangely ninja-like. The books just appear. No one wakes you in the middle of the night to let you know that they’re stacking them [...]

WEEKEND UPDATE

Tuesday, May 15th, 2007

It’s become very quiet in Bartlesville.
Too quiet.
I don’t know what’s going on there, friends. No one is talking. I have a feeling that all of a sudden I’m going to hear some news, and then we’ll be right off to the races again. I sleep with one eye open, never fear. If you want to [...]

LIBBA BRAY HAS A GLASS EYE

Tuesday, April 3rd, 2007

It’s been a rough few weeks here in YA land. It seems like everyone has been on crazy deadlines, or getting sick, or otherwise falling to pieces. I think I should bring you all up to speed.
The other day, I had lunch with Justine Larbalestier and Libba Bray. Libba has been working 25 hours a [...]

I WOULD RARELY LIE TO YOU

Friday, February 2nd, 2007

It’s a busy time here.
I am extremely pleased to report that Justine Larbalestier and Scott Westerfeld have finally returned to these shores. Justine, being Australian and not having seen snow until the age of 26, is currently traumatized by the actual cold weather we have here in New York. We met for lunch in our [...]

PRINTZTASTICAL!

Monday, January 22nd, 2007

One of the major perks of being a writer is that, every once in a while, I get to witness something truly exciting–a real event in the literary world. Today was one of those days.
I didn’t know it when I first arrived to work this morning. Writing partner J. Green, author of Looking for Alaska [...]
