Top ten ways in which this week rocked!

Thanks to everyone who has written to say how much you have enjoyed the book or how happy you are to hear of the big movie progress (or to ask for a role in the movie...)

It's been an amazing week because...

1) I got to see my book in stores and appreciate how much my awesome cover leaves other covers in the dust.

2) I found out we're one big step closer to having an actual movie made of something I actually wrote.

3) Michael finally kissed Sara on Prison Break.

4) Many, many people have already read (and reportedly loved) the book.

5) We got over four inches of (badly needed) rain

6) I'm finally getting some time to get back to work on the Gallagher Girls sequel

7) There have been over a thousand unique visitors to this site this week!

8) I got to take time last night to watch Capote, and it made me want to be a better writer.

9) People have reported seeing the book all over which means not only is it out there--it's out there on the good tables, which is what every writer wants to see.

10) any week with a new Veronica Mars episode is a good week.


There is a chance (depending on shooting schedules and time zones) that I may have even more movie news sometime this week--so stay tuned!

In the meantime, take care of my Gallagher Girls--they're out there alone in the big, bad world and looking for good homes.

1.) Your cover certainly did leave the other covers in the dust. And your title rocks too!
2.) If your movie is made, I will be the happiest person ever. Except for you.
3.) Never seen Prison Break. *puts it on her to-do list*
4.) I LOVE THE BOOK! There, you can add one more to the list of people who love the book.
5.) We got rain too (that could be because I live in the Midwest too)
6.) YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY! (<--further proof that I would NOT make a good Gallangher Girl... I'm too dumb. And weak.)
7.) +1 again
8.) Haven't seen Capote, no idea what it is...
9.) I'll make my friends in Washington, California, Virginia, and Texas go to their bookstores and see if your book is there. If that's what you meant. I'm tired and not processing things.
10.) Again... no idea what Veronica Mars is. I have a feeling that I'm missing out on something.

I would love to take care of a Gallagher girl... except that she would think that I'm extremely stupid.

I'm off to email you now.

Ta,
Kinsey

I know some good homes where your Gallagher girls would be cared for. I'll be sure to alert the homes and even send a Gallagher girl their way! :-)
