Friday Five: Is it March already?
Posted by annastan on March 2nd, 2012. Filed under: Friday Five, Tumblr.How is it already Friday? And March? I feel totally behind. Anyway, here’s what’s new.
1. If you live in or near Rhode Island, I’d love to see you on March 24th at The Story Emporium in Pawtucket. I’ll be doing a reading at 10am and then there will be crafty and book-signing fun until 1pm. After the event, I’ll be doing a recorded interview–my first ever! I’ll let you guys know when the video is up online.
2. Tomorrow, I’m heading out to see Kim Harrington at her launch party for Perception (sequel to Clarity). I can’t wait to get my hands on the book!
3. Revising revising revising. Need I say more?
4. I’ve officially joined the world of Tumblr with Dogosaurus Rex, a tie-in to my forthcoming picture book and an excuse to take pictures of my dog. I’m not sure I quite understand how Tumblr works yet, but hopefully I’ll figure it out.
5. I’m in a little bit of a reading funk. Can anyone recommend an amazing, must-read book to help get me back in the game? I admit that I’ve been very escapist in my reading choices recently, so nothing too intense!

1. Pawtucket reminds me of the Pinocchio retelling I’ve been dabbling with for two years where the MC is a New England outcast named Pintucket. Random.
2. Authors make great fans of authors!
3. Yes. Yes, you do.
4. I was on tumblr for two years and never ever got used to it. I wish you luck!
5. You know what gets me out of my reading funks? Picture books. Recently, I’ve been inspired by HIROSHIMA NO PIKA and WOLVES IN THE WALLS. Also, Wendy Mass’s MG novels work every time.
(6.) PUPPY! geeeeaaaa

I just read 11/22/63 by Stephen King. It was as clever and suspenseful as you would expect from King. There was also a love story in it, which I wasn’t expecting, so that was a pleasant surprise. It will probably be too intense for what you’re in the mood for right now, but I definitely recommend it!

Janice Hardy’s SHIFTER (first in the Healing Wars trilogy) if you haven’t read it already.

Book Twin, I’m not surprised that you have spotted PERCEPTION. I saw it in the bookstore this week. I enjoyed reading CLARITY.

You just reminded me I joined Tumblr a little while ago. I completely forgot about it. Oops!
