All the things I've been doing before the Launch of EVERBOUND...

Hey y'all. 

Sorry my blogging has been so sporadic. All I can say is... 


And then every time I sat down to blog, I'd look at my interview pile, and my to-do list for the launch, and then I would sit there paralyzed, and I would do nothing. 

But... tomorrow is the day. EVERBOUND hits shelves. 

Here is what I've been doing instead of blogging:

I've been juggling all my balls...




Digging out of the snow...

Finally getting the courage up to play poker in Vegas... (you can see my name on the waiting list)


Selling tickets to this show...


Laughing at the pajamas my mom bought for my hubs and my brother-in-law...


Sitting in a bird... (trying to hide the fact that I'm wearing white socks)

Wearing a TAB hat...

Making a pilgrimage to the Mother Land...

Escaping the inversion with my sis...

And finally, the activity that took the longest time, straightening Kid C's hair. 

I'm glad I got all this stuff taken care of before my book comes out tomorrow. 

Speaking of launch parties, don't forget the launch for EVERBOUND (and Cynthia Hand's BOUNDLESS) is tomorrow night at 7:00 p.m. at The King's English. Come and party! 

bonus: If you get your book signed, you'll get a guitar pick necklace. 

double bonus: there will be food!

So... who's going to party with me tomorrow night???

Two Weeks to EVERBOUND Launch. It's Cool. I'm not Freaking out.

Happy 2013 y'all! 

Wanna hear something crazy?

EVERBOUND comes out two weeks from tomorrow.

I don't know how it happened. It was always "Oh, sometime next year" and now it's suddenly NEXT YEAR. 

Of course we're going to have a party. And you're invited. Yes, YOU! 

EVERBOUND Launch Party
The King's English Bookshop
January 22nd, 2013
7:00 p.m.

My in-laws will be providing the food again, which means it will be epic. Also, I will be giving away guitar pick necklaces. So, come to the partay!

If you're not near Salt Lake City, I'm touring around the country. Check my appearances page to see if I'll be in a city near you. 

I also have a deadline a week from today. So if you need me, um, be patient. 

How was everyone's New Year? Which books are on your reading list? You don't have to say EVERBOUND... not at all.
