- My US Trip
Justine and I have spent the last six weeks traveling in the US, which is why there have been zero postings here. Apologies! I realize that this hasn’t been a very bloggy year for me, but it has been a writey year, and which would you rather have, really? Let me take you on a […]
- River Pix
We just got back to Sydney, and I have some more Thailand pix to post. But first . . . a bit of news for those of you in and around NYC. There’s a completely awesome reading tomorrow (Tuesday) at Books of Wonder. It includes this stunning cast: Coe Booth I haven’t read her debut […]
- Forum Meet-Up Transcript
UPDATE This meet-up went from 7PM-8:30PM US Eastern time, 10AM-11:30AM Sydney time, October 20-21, 2012. You can click here to read all the questions and cross-talk, or you can just read my answers below. (Sorry for the slapdash formatting. I was typing pretty fast.) Here’s a question! What color are Deryns eyes? Hmm. They’re blue, […]
- Bonus Goliath Chapter and Art!
A bonus chapter, you say? What? Why? Here’s how this came about. While reading a multitude of fan reviews of Goliath, the last book in the Leviathan trilogy, I noted a common theme. Many of you felt as though there was just one more illustration you wanted to see. After all, we’ve all spent a […]
- From Russia with Covers
A Russian fan recently directed me to this site, which gives a full accounting of books by my Russian alter-ego, Скотт ВеÑтерфельд. (Technically, Скотт is not an alter-ego, given that he is, in fact, me. But I prefer to imagine him as an actual other person, reading this post and chuckling as he consumes champagne […]
- Skinned Interview
Another book in the blurbed-by-me stack comes out this week: Skinned, by Robin Wasserman. Here’s what I said about it: A spellbinding story about loss, rebirth, and finding out who we really are inside. But there’s much more to be said about Skinned than that! So I decided to do an IM interview with Robin, […]
- Suite Scarlett
I’ve been meaning to blog about Maureen Johnson’s new book, Suite Scarlett, which came out last week. The book is set in a Manhattan hotel owned by a somewhat dysfunctional family. The hotel’s glory days are long over, so all the kids have to work there—including Scarlett, the 15-year-old protagonist. The funny begins to roll […]
- Home
Finally home. Before I pass out, I’d like to thank everyone who made the trip so awesome: all the librarians, booksellers, sales reps, and teachers who we met along the way. And also the folks who drove us around, kept us fed, and got me to every single event on time. But most of all […]
- Local Customs
So here we are in Thailand, and I didn’t get around to blogging any of our trip to Britain! In my defense, the schedule was insanely busy. Four school visits, three interviews, three “Meet the Author” videos, one stage appearance, three lunches and two dinners with booksellers, librarians, editors, and scouts. Two hotels, four trains, […]
