In which I demonstrate my truly terrible Photoshop skills, and also announce SOME NEWS. 

I’m going to spoil my own news here presently, so NEWS SPOILER ALERT: I’m so so so so so so (so so so so so) excited to announce that my publisher Henry Holt has picked up two more of my books. The first, which I finished just a couple months ago, is called THIS ADVENTURE ENDS. As I so aptly forgot to mention in the video, it’s another YA contemporary, in which the narrator, Sloane, goes on a quest to track down her new friends’ late mother’s last painting (quite a mouthful!). The second of the two books is being written right now (well, not right now, as I am writing this post right now, but you know what I mean!). I haven’t titled it yet, but I’ll let you know more details as soon as I’ve got them.

THIS ADVENTURE ENDS is slated for winter of 2017, which seems ages away, but in the meantime there are many books to read and dogs to pet and cakes to enjoy etc etc.. I’m so excited to share these books with you (along with FIRST & THEN, which comes out in…. less than two weeks!!!!!!!!), and I’m so grateful for your support in all this.

THANK YOUUU!!!!!!
