I'm back from Comic Con! I've got a couple of ARCs of TIN STAR to giveaway for those of you who couldn't be in San Diego to snag one!
Leave your name in the comments (or tweet me) along with your fave alien / human friendship/relationship (just for dorky fun!) and I'll draw the winners at random on August 1st.
On their way to start a new life, Tula and her family travel on the Prairie Rose, a colony ship headed to a planet in the outer reaches of the galaxy. All is going well until the ship makes a stop at a remote space station, the Yertina Feray, and the colonist’s leader, Brother Blue, beats Tula within an inch of her life. An alien, Heckleck, saves her and teaches her the ways of life on the space station.
You can read an excerpt of TIN STAR over at tor.com
add it at goodreads!

Castellucci, Infurnari Go with Dark Horse
YA (and graphic) novelist Cecil Castellucci sold North American rights to a currently untitled Depression-era graphic novel to Dark Horse’s Sierra Hahn. The book, which William Morris Endeavor’s Kirby Kim represented, will be illustrated by Joe Infurnari, and is currently set for a fall 2014 release. The story is set in 1932 and follows, Dark Horse said, two misfits “and a relationship built during a train-hopping journey from the cold heartbreak of their eastern homes toward the sunny promise of California.”

This past weekend I participated in the Yappiest Day on Earth! the brain child of Cat Patrick. It was 16 YA authors, bloggers and librarians and you! Imagine us all running around Disneyland with matching blue shirts like we were on a school trip. Every ride to conquer! Thrilling screams to be had!
Here we are before our adventure began!
I wanted to go onto the Winnie the Pooh ride. BUT WE GOT STUCK IN THE HONEYCOMB!
Or as Kevin Emerson, Sean Beaudoin, Rachel Cohn and I now will say for all things that suddenly go wrong: "Tigger spilt some honey on the tracks."
Kevin Emerson and I in the Pooh "trap."
I also went on Splash Mountain which was wet. I was terrified at the drop.
Me and Gabrielle Zevin pre-drop. We talked a lot about the Bears. And Zippity Doo Dah.
I spent a lot of the day hanging with Sean Beaudoin. He even won me a stuffed mouse at the midway in California Adventure. He also won a Dumbo that he gave to a tiny child who waddled off with the biggest grin on her face. He also snuck in some Cruella de Ville time.
Anyway, it was a fun day and much thanks to Harper Collins for sponsoring the book signing afterwards and to Mysterious Galaxy for selling books.
Thanks to all of those who came out! You should totally come next year.
