Author News


We have such amazing news from a few of our favorite authors that we decided to devote an entire post to these bits of new and fun information.

First, 13 to Life's author, Shannon Delany has agreed to host a Writing 101 section on our Forum. Now, you do have to be a member, so please register and join Shannon and our group of wordsmiths. So far, discussions have included thoughts on : "Paths to Publication", "Get Inspired: Where Do Writer's Ideas Come From" and "Where to Begin? Where to Begin? Starting Your Story". There's also a section for a Q&A with Shannon.

If you are a Mundie Mom Writer, please, don't miss out on this incredible opportunity -- here.




Have you head the good news from Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl?? No?? Well, from yesterday's tweets and their blog post, here, they announced that The Caster Chronicles will be published as a series of four books!

And you know, how we love planning out our To Be Read piles.












Speaking of To Be Read books, Rachel Hawkins' HEX HALL came out this week. Mundie Moms, it's time to get hexy! Check out our 5-star review posted, here and next time you're in the bookstore, pick up HEX HALL. You won't be sorry. And for the record, we're all Team Archer.

















Heidi R. Kling has a wonderful contest happening on her blog right now. You can WIN a copy of her ARC of SEA! Check out the details, here and be sure to enter! We'd love it if a Mundie Mom won.














Michelle Zink has some INCREDIBLE news. Her book, Prophecy of the Sisters, which we loved (link to our review), will have a new cover just in time for its paperback release in July.

And, if I had access to a drum roll I'd use it right now, because the sequel, Guardian of the Gate's cover was also revealed. Be sure to pre-order it well before its August 1st release date.

To Be Released June 8, 2010

PACK LIFE IS ABOUT ORDER, BUT BRYN IS ABOUT TO PUSH ALL THE LIMITS, WITH HAIR-RAISING RESULTS.

At the age of four, Bryn watched a rabid werewolf brutally murder her parents. Alone in the world, she was rescued and taken in by Callum, the alpha of his pack. Now fifteen, Bryn's been raised as a human among werewolves, adhering to pack rule (mostly). Little fazes her.

But the pack's been keeping a secret, and when Bryn goes exploring against Callum's orders, she finds Chase, a newly turned teen Were locked in a cage. Terrifying memories of the attack on her mom and dad come flooding back. Bryn needs answers, and she needs Chase to get them. Suddenly, all allegiances to the pack no longer matter. It's Bryn and Chase against the werewolf world, whatever the consequences. (goodreads)

Being wolf girls, this is one book that ranks high on our MUST READ list. We are *patiently* awaiting it's release. Does the cover not get your attention?! It's a beautiful, dark and alluring cover.
