Going Down!

That's down south to Texas, y'all ;>  I'm leaving at OMG-early tomorrow morning and will be there until late Friday night...my birthday :)  Yeah, I was born on Tax day here in the USA - well, I think this year it's the 18th to give everyone the weekend to panic....I mean...prepare their tax forms.

I wanted to post this last week, but a nasty head cold/sinus infection took me out for four days!  Here's my schedule for those who live in the great state of Texas!

April 12, 2011 Reading, Reception, Q&A, and Book Signing at El Paso Community College, Valle Verde branch in the Cafeteria Annex (919 Hunter Drive, El Paso, Texas, 79915) 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

April 14, 2011 Book Signing at Barnes & Noble (La Frontera Village, 2701 Parker Road Bldg A Suite 700, Round Rock, Texas, 78681, 512-600-0088) 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.

And it's 116 days until I arrive in Australia!!!  Further south than Texas and also a heck of a lot bigger :)April is also the release of the Australian INSIDE OUT.  So to celebrate I'm giving away a set of Australian Study books,  a set of Australian Glass books, and two copies of the Australian INSIDE OUT (if I can get them - if not, then the plain old USA ones).  OF course all will be signed, personalized and doodled in....well, maybe not doodled....depends on my mood and how full the moon is :)  So FOUR chances to win!

Details - One point for posting a comment here by midnight EDT April 18th, one point for including your email address in the comment, ten points for posting a good review of INSIDE OUT online (could be anywhere, Goodreads, Amazon, Facebook, your blog.  Each post = 10 points!), one point for liking the Harlequin TEEN facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/harlequinTEEN), one point for becoming a fan of the Harlequin Teen page, and one point for adding up all your points :)  I'll pick four winners at random, BUT the person with the highest points of the four gets his/her choice Study or Glass books, next highest gets the other set.

  7. Do you think you could be prevailed upon to visit Oregon when you are done with Australia? :)

    I just posted my review of Inside Out on my blog, Goodreads, Barnes and Noble and in the comments section for Powell's.

    don't know if posting the review here counts but if it does here it is for a possible 33 points?

    Inside Out by Maria V. Snyder had always caught my glimpse in the book isles.
    I did not immediately buy it. When there are so many books out there your list gets pretty long; adding a new series to the mix can be something you avoid. Instead I read an excerpt from her site www.mariavsnyder.com.
    I was shocked! Amazon continually showed me this book. The cover always caught my eye in the stores. Why had I not already bought this?
    Her writing skills are amazing. Clear, concise, easy to follow, and packed with informative bits.
    Starting immediately it pulls you in. This story does not become tedious like many others in the genre do. Right away your questions begin and regardless of what you should be doing you continue to read on for the answers.
    It does remind me of a couple other movies and books, but the story is uniquely captured and portrayed to make it one hundred percent original.
    The character world is appealing along with the relationship’s of the characters. The descriptive writing places you in a new world on an epic journey.

  10. I have not read Inside Out or the Glass series. But they are both series that I am really excited to read.

    I would definitely have posted a review of Inside Out if I had read it (and will do it when I read it).

  17. Yay! You're coming down to Texas and I can't wait to see you in Round Rock! Poison Study really did it for me and I can't help pressing it into others' hands to read! ^_^

    I still need to get Inside Out, too, so many good books! Hope you're having a fantastic time in Texas so far!

    I asked you a question when you on the Bitten by Books site and I don't think you ever answered. If you could have a cookie jar sized container full of anything in the world, except money, any form of money, anything you plan to sell to get money, or wishes, what would it be and why?
