I'll be posting vacation pictures of Dublin during the next week or so but before that wanted to link to some book news from the past month while I was maintaining radio silence (working on book four revisions which I'll be returning to tomorrow!).
* Firstly, there's one day left to enter the Wondrous Reads contest to win a signed copy of The Lighter Side of Life and Death and a Lighter Side T-shirt. My husband did the cartoon illustration of Mason and Kat and I'm totally in love with it. Thank you, Jenny, for hosting the giveaway!

* The School Library Journal has a nice review of The Lighter Side of Life and Death up in their August issue. You can check it out on their website.
* Courtney Summers, who I'm always saying is one of my favourite writer people because she's pure fantastic, has a new interview up with me up on her website as part of her recent awesome books week.

* If you want to check out my ideas about who should star in and direct a movie version of The Lighter Side of Life and Death drop over to My Book, The Movie blog. Incidentally, Filipino movie Dinig Sana Kita (starring Zoe Sandejas who would be my preference to play Kat Medina) is going to be playing at the newly reopened Carlton cinema in Toronto starting this Friday. Read more about Dinig Sana Kita (If I Knew What You Said) here. I can't wait to watch it!
* Finally, Random House are starting to tinker with cover ideas for My Beating Teenage Heart and though I'm sure there won't be anything I can share for ages yet the thought that it's on its way to becoming a book is pretty exciting. By the way, I noticed that Michelle's Bookshelf blog made a mock cover for My Beating Teenage Heart which looks very cool. Thanks, Michelle!
