Me? A Cosmo Girl?

We interrupt our contest programming to bring you a few short announcements:

I'm interviewed at horror author Luke Walker's blog today, where I discuss tipples, Stephen King, and what a mean boy said to me in a workshop.

I got a brief mention in Canada's National Post last Friday! Super cool.

I was over at the ThrillerFest blog yesterday, where I admit to gushing all over Jeffery Deaver (and yes, there is pictorial evidence).

I've always dreamed of being a Cosmo Girl and now it's happened! I am honored to have been chosen as Cosmopolitan Philippines' Fun Fearless Female for June! The article isn't available online without a subscription, but here's a snapshot of the print article:



And last but not least, did you enter my FREAK giveaway? You have till June 17th! All you have to do is tell me a story using the word FREAK, and you could win an ARC, a copy of CREEP, and a $50 Amazon gift card!

Even if you're not planning to enter, you gotta read the stories. They're cringe-worthy, guys! CRINGE-WORTHY! And I mean that as a total freaking compliment.

  15. I really liked your interview on Luke's blog. Thanks for educating us on what a tipple is (which I had to ignore rhymes with nipple), and also for your advice to up and coming writers. So true! I have to constantly remind myself to never give up!

  17. I didn't know you were Philipina. Congrats, on cosmo and not being Philipina, not that you shouldn't be proud of that, just that you have always been that and it was your parents that did that and not you. Crap, congrats for that too.
