It’s that time of year again, where some poor, unsuspecting tree gets sacrificed, only to end up standing in someone’s living room, decorated and degraded. Poor tree. Anyway…happy holidays! 
ARCs of EIGHTH GRADE BITES are mailed and I’m trying to focus on ANYTHING but the fact that people are reading my book. Because I’m quite sure it’s terrible, and the hate mail will roll in soon, perhaps attached to the poisoned spines of porcupines. (Yay! I rhymed!) So…there’s some holiday cheer for ya. Humbug, indeed.
Bah Humbug!

Not that I’m reading it (yet), but I HATE…
that you are going crazy about this. You need to do the following:
- go re-read all your fabulous blurbs by famous writers who know good writing when they see it.
- talk to some kids in your target audience about your book and see how excited they get.
- have some chocolate and light a candle for all the trees that will be sacrificed on the altar of holiday commercialism and mass consumerism.
Then just realize that you are going to scare the pants off of some teenagers and they will love you for it.
Hope that helps.
Hey, I’ve done all three of those! But it’s just a grumblicious time of year. Stupid ice and cold and SNOW!
No worries, Heather…I’m sure it sucks!
Nic ;-D
HEE! Nic
I have no doubt it will fly high! Jitters are only normal. I have complete faith in your ability to sparkle.
Read it. Stayed up to read it.
You have a great talent, congratulations on a fantastic book. I eagerly await 9th grade!
Thank you, DEvon–you’re a dear!
Oh, Eryc–you’re my new favorite person on the planet!!
