I’ve been keeping a blog for a number of years on LiveJournal, which you can access. Some of my favorite posts are listed below. Or why I write. Aliens and twelve year old boys. Feng-shui and ferris wheels. Some thoughts on revisions. It was twenty years ago today. Revision goggles and bunny rabbits. My Friday One Story. Reading to the young. The theme of this book is. Writers we fall in love with. How do you know when you’re done? Not the vampire librarian again. Keep the bread, toss the tree.

http://annemariepace.livejournal.com/310250.html
Anne Marie Paces Journal. Good news for VAMPIRINA BALLERINA! Jan 22nd, 2013 at 9:58 AM. It has been a number of months now since my fabulous agent Linda Pratt told me that Disney Jr. might be interested in the option for television rights of VAMPIRINA BALLERINA. So for months, I've just smiled gratefully and bit my lip whenever a friend mentioned that VAMPIRINA might make a cute animated show. 20 comments Leave a comment. Jan 22nd, 2013 03:38 pm (UTC). Congratulations, Anne Marie! One step at a time!

Woo Christmas Eve! - Not So Usual
http://jeffsampson.livejournal.com/40494.html
Fri, Dec. 24th, 2010 10:30 am. So it turns out having a debut novel come out while also working on several other books can make you totally frikkin' busy. And also not shave for a month so that you end up looking like Alan Moore. So that's my excuse for not blogging more often (even though I totes had procrastination days when I could have, but let's ignore that). Amongst our other shows, and the occasional movie outing (omg Social Network and Black Swan! The package, with a note from my editor, Kristin:.

Telling the truth - Spinning stories of stars and silver while seeking the Truth ॐ
http://shveta-thakrar.livejournal.com/101253.html
February 5th, 2014 (10:30 am). Originally published at Author Shveta Thakrar. You can comment here or there. So let me tell you a secret, and maybe it’ll help you, too.

And it made me want to cry. Or is it just because no one cares about those stories? Even typing that is...

Lisa Schroeder, Author: When you get a bad review, eat chocolate and keep writing
http://www.lisaschroederbooks.com/2011/05/when-you-get-bad-review-eat-chocolate.html
Tuesday, May 3, 2011. When you get a bad review, eat chocolate and keep writing. Yesterday my editor sent me the Kirkus review for THE DAY BEFORE. Now, we all know Kirkus is known for being harsh, although some have said they've softened up the past year, since the sale. Still, they remind me a bit of this guy. Sometimes the poetry just tells the story, and other times it is almost too precious.". Haha Beyond that, there's not a thing. It's just. not a good review. 1) Not everyone is going to like your b...
