Award!

Thanks so much, Amy, for this pretty-in-pink award! I’m passing it on to the following five bloggers:

Allyson Condie of Allyson Condie Ever wondered what it’d be like to have one of the most sought-after ARCs at BEA? Well, now you don’t have to--just check out Ms. Condie’s blog:) Her YA debut, MATCHED* (which sold at auction for an astronomical amount, I might add), comes out this November.

Janice Hardy of The Other Side of the Story I recently discovered Ms. Hardy’s blog and was impressed by the step-by-step advice she offered for crafting plot, characters, and the like. Her second book, BLUE FIRE, the second in her YA fantasy series The Healing Wars, comes out this October.

Myrna Foster of Night Writer, who is, without a doubt, one of my best blogging buddies. Since I hardly ever get to pass awards on to her (since she’s usually passing them on to me), she’s definitely getting a piece of this one:)

Sharon K. Mayhew of Random Thoughts, a blog filled with fabulous tips and contests for writers and readers alike.

Stina Lindenblatt of Seeing Creative Here’s another great blog full of practical advice on writing--and photography. What great hobbies!

Definitely check out these blogs, and when you do, leave a comment. Because we all love to hear from each other, right?

Happy Memorial Day, all!

*If you’d like to win a copy, Ms. Condie's GIVING ONE AWAY on her blog. Here’s the official contest post, but don’t dilly-dally--it closes at midnight tonight.
