Woohoo!

So I used to secretly want to be a writer(not so secret anymore). I still toy with the idea, but in my mind I'm a much better reader than a writer. :P And that's fine with me because I love to read. But the other day over at Novel Novice I entered one of their Short Story writing contests. It was The Naughty List Writing Contest, with first place getting signed copies of both The Naughty List and So Many Boys by Suzanne Young.

Well to my amazement, I won first place! I really didn't think my entry was that great but it was so much fun to write. We had to use three key words, naughty, ninja and smitten. And I had a great time writing it.

You can check out my entry here.

Thanks to Novel Novice for thinking my entry was good! :)

Wow these contest are really adding up. I should have done one HUGE contest for all the books i'm giving away, but authors are very busy people and I didn't know when I would have which interviews back so I just separated them. So anyways, there's this book coming out in March called The Body Finder, i'm mostly sure you've heard of it but if not here's the trailer, watch it! Now that you know about this awesome book, how about an interview with the author! Yes, Kimberly has been kind enough to stop by and answer a few questions. Q: To start, can you tell us a little bit about yourself? A: Let’s see…I live in the Northwest with my husband and our three kids. I’m always surrounded by teenagers (my kids and their friends), which I think helps with my writing. Sometimes I’ll ask for their opinions on dialogue. Sometimes I just eavesdrop and call it “research.” Q: For those reading that don't already know, what is The Body Finder about? A: Sixteen-year...

So for my part in the Tyger, Tyger blog tour for Teen Book Scene I did a character interview. Well im unconvential in my ways and since I wanted to ask multiple characters questions, I decided to ask five characters one question each, instead of asking one character five questions! Without further adeiu, I give you my multiple character interview! ~~~~~ Aiden: Singing is a huge part of your life. What is your favorite song to sing, and what is your favorite song to listen to? My favorite song to sing is, “Aiden is the hero.” I make up the words when I hear music. I like to listen to old songs, guy songs, not princess songs. There’s always a song around me. Like in the movies, when the music tells you things about what’s about to happen. I listen to it, and that’s how I know what to sing. Tonight, I want my Dad to sing the monsters away before I go to sleep, because I keep hearing, Bad Moon Rising http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BmEGm-mraE&feature=related My dad will make it...
