News Flash: Conferences & Festivals, Awards & a Giveaway!

newsCongratulations to Caryn Strean, winner of THE FAR END OF HAPPY by guest author Kathryn Craft!

Check back next Sunday for this week’s winner of Renee Ahdieh’s THE WRATH AND THE DAWN …

 

From the 2015 Debs:

Colleen Oakley sold rights for BEFORE I GO to Hungary! She’s still barreling through her WIP, slowly but (un)surely.

Amy E. Reichert is still in the glamorous writing cave, except when she’s at her children’s lacrosse or baseball games. She getting quite good at typing while sitting on sidelines and in cars.

Karma Brown is tap tap tapping on her keyboard trying to get a few solid chapters done for her next book, and gearing up for the next round of revisions on book 2. She’s also trying to ignore a picture book idea that won’t leave her alone, and suspects she won’t be able to ignore it much longer…especially if her daughter has her way!

Sona Charaipotra is rocking it in Texas! After a fun and fruitful time at RT in Dallas, she’s headed to Austin today for an awesome event at BookPeople! Hope to see you there!
