Week Updates

Hey everyone!!

There's a lot going on here lately. On the online world, and then the writing world.

We have 3 giveaways going on at once. The Tell Taylor about REMEMBRANCE post. And the Twitter Follower Giveaway, I'm giving away a signed ARC of Shadow Future. And the I <3 YA blog hop giveaway! Where I am giving away a copy of THE IRON KNIGHT by Julie Kagawa. :)

Also, I'm working on 2 books are once. Which equals = :O. I've never done it before, but I found myself getting tired of one book, and needing to write something else. So I'm just switching back and forth, but lucky for me, one of the books doesn't need to be done for a LONG while. The other book is just for fun. :) But I find myself really wanting to write a dystopian or post-apocalyptic novel. I've had an idea for one for a long time, but I keep either getting distracted, or starting it, and I end up getting bored or something.
I've changed the plots a lot, in my head that is, but I think doing one in olden times would be great, but then, that would be a lot of research. (And I'd rather write, than research)...sigh. One day, I'll get this book written. XD
And a random fact about me: I like creating books with worlds in them, that aren't real, so that I don't have to research, and make up the rules. (that's the fun book I'm writing. hehe)

Also, a lot of people have entered to win the ARC of Shadow Future, and I'm really excited about that. It means a lot when someone takes the time to enter a giveaway for MY BOOK. Pearl Underwood also got some tweets about Shadow Future, saying that they can't read the book. Which meant A LOT to me. :)

Which comes to what else I have to say: you won't win the ARC, even if you SAID you did EVERYTHING. I will be checking, and so far, only THREE people have actually tweeted Pearl like they were supposed to. Also, locked Twitter accounts don't show up, so you need to either post your 'tweet' on the Shadow Future trilogy page, Pearl writes there also.

I also changed the blog design, do you guys like it? I think it goes with my book, and with me at the same time. XD

Ahh, there. I feel better now, that I told you all this. lol

Today's library day, so I'm going to go pick up CROSSED by Ally Condie (I've waited MONTHS for this book to come in!), and WITHER by Lauren DeStefano. At first, I wasn't going to read WITHER, but I've changed my mind, and I'm super siked about it.
The only down side is that I don't like the way each book is written, it's in first person, but it's the WAY it's written. But I LOVE the plots. :)

Also, I can't stop listening to this song. I have this thing for Asian singers. They are so talented! <3 ;) Abracadabra by Brown Eyed Girls - lyrics.

Well, that's it! Have a great four-day weekend all your US residents, and have a great weekend all you INT residents. :)

Love you all!!
