I'm going to have a great "what I learned from doing a blog tour" post at the end of this. I'm finding out a lot of cool stuff.
Wow, you've been busy! And the month just started. :)
ReplyDeleteAll great posts. Keep 'em coming!
Sorry for the delay Janice. It's up now. I'll be sure to come back and check out the others. :)
ReplyDeleteNo worries, Angie. With bogs you never know what time zone someone is in :) I have it up now, and thanks for having me over!
ReplyDeleteLydia, there's lots of good stuff planned for the month. I may have bitten off about as much as I can chew, but it's been fun :)
Thanks for letting The Enchanted Inkpot be a host to you on your blog tour for Blue Fire!
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff so far!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to your visit to Second Star!
In your interview at The Enchanted Inkpot I really liked the point you made about how in Blue Fire you treated the previous story as if it was backstory. Your approach never occurred to me, I imagine for someone writing a series that would be good advice about how to tackle what to show/leave out/allude to.
ReplyDelete- Sophia.
I'm enjoying your blog tour and am getting to the ones I can. This is a super crazy week and I'm getting ready for a SCBWI conference. And my daughter just twisted her ankle. So I might not get to all of them. But I'm so happy for you.
ReplyDeleteI'll be at SCBWI as well. I'm working at the registration booth on Sat from 7:30 - 8am, so if you check in then come by and say hello. Or if you spot me throughout the day :) Sorry about your poor daughter ;( I hope it gets better soon.
ReplyDeleteSophia, that approach kinda came to me out the blue as I was banging my head against the keyboard. But it worked!
