Major Life Event Announcement! Brace Yourselves! :-)

Hi everyone!

OK, I’ve decided it’s time to tell you all the Big Crazy News that has made me a terrible blogger/correspondent/punctual or awake human being for the last few months.  Remember my "excellent and fascinating reason" for skipping a blog post about a month ago?  Well, the Moment of Revelation Has Arrived!  I know!  So exciting!  Are you all sitting down?  Except maybe the 75% of you who already know this news because you’ve seen me in person lately and it’s, hello, kind of obvious, Tui?

YES.

Dr. Horrible Awesomely Steals the Emmys

Only one more week until my shiny new vampire book is available everywhere!  Hooray!  Ridiculously excited = me!

And for this book, I get to do a faintly alarming yet also thrilling marketing-type thing, namely: a PODCAST!  WOOT!  Yes, lovely HarperTeen people have sent me a hilarious little alien-looking recorder thingie which I am supposed to talk into for like half an hour, presumably about me, the book, dreamy vampires, etc.

If Books were TV and TV was Books…

Hi everyone!

I love the fall, don’t you?  I love it when it starts to get cooler (but isn’t freezing yet) and the leaves start to change and it feels like I should be going back to school (I still want to buy new notebooks every year around this time).

How to Make Vampires and Bears Look Far More British

It is STILL TOO HOT!  I don’t approve!  Bleyech.  On the plus side, at least I don’t live in 1963, because from what I can tell from watching Mad Men, that would be horrible.  Well, maybe the fashions would be fun, but otherwise: oppressive and dreadful!  (For instance, poor Sal!)  Much more fun to watch from a distance instead.  🙂

The First Beagle on the Moon!

August is a silly month: too hot, too much traveling, hardly any decent TV on (now that So You Think You Can Dance is over…although at least Mad Men will be back in just a few days!  Yippee!).  Luckily it includes the birthdays of many of my favorite people to make it all worthwhile.  :-)
