OK, the part of the song about bringing my baby back home is not true. Also, technically, I will be in Independence, MO, instead of KC. But if you live in that area, I’m headed your way!

The grand-prize winner of the STEADFAST launch contest is … drum roll please …
(You guys know what movie the blog title is from, right?)
STEADFAST is out in the wild, roaming free! The second book in the SPELLCASTER trilogy made its debut Tuesday — Mardi Gras — which meant I got to celebrate by wearing a glitter top hat. (I mean, I would probably have worn that anyway, but Mardi Gras allowed me to do so in public without anyone blinking twice.) So you only have until this Tuesday to get in on the contest fun —
Yes, we’re at just over one week until STEADFAST comes out, which means the fun has finally begun:
We are at just under two weeks until STEADFAST hits bookstores.* That means it’s time for a blog tour, put together by the very awesome Jaime of Two Chicks on Books! Want to see the schedule?
It is now less than three weeks until STEADFAST makes its debut on March 4. (Unless you’re one of the lucky few who can come to the Feb. 21 Dark Days event here in New Orleans, where advance copies have been sighted in the wild.) If you have pre-ordered the book, are going to pre-order or plan to run out and get it that first week, you can be a winner. As in, you WILL be a winner, no matter what.
The winners of the last contest before we start the big countdown to STEADFAST are these lucky women: Yuliya, who gets INSOMNIA by J.R. Johannson; Tamara, who gets SEKRET by Lindsay Smith; and Becca, who gets PANIC by Lauren Oliver. Congrats one and all! More ARC contests will happen in the future, but not until after the big STEADFAST contest (starting tomorrow!) Right now, I want to talk about two upcoming appearances:
It’s five weeks until STEADFAST comes out! I’m so psyched about the prize package we’re putting together for that … but first, have to give away ALL THE ARCs, right?
If you haven’t gotten your hands on Laurie Halse Anderson’s latest, THE IMPOSSIBLE KNIFE OF MEMORY, I know you are dying to get it. Or what about SIX MONTHS LATER, the psychological thriller from Natalie D. Richards? And there is no such thing as too much steampunk YA, particularly when the heroines are Bram Stoker’s sister and Sherlock Holmes’ niece, so you’ll want to check out THE CLOCKWORK SCARAB, too. Well, now you can win all three —
