6. Would you like to be crowned Pumpkin Princess? If so, why?
Sure! I’ve never been crowned anything. Everyone should be crowned once in their life. =D
7. I loved the book cover! But the only thing that I felt was missing were the pumpkins. How do you feel about the book cover?
Haha! Yeah, I noticed that too. It was a super cute cover though! I think they left the pumpkins off so it would have a longer shelf life and not just be faced out for October.
8. What advice do you have for aspiring authors?
To write as often as you can and find solid critique partners who will read your work honestly and give good feedback.
9. What are you working on now and what can we expect from you in the future?
Right now my newest YA book, THE PAPARAZZI PROJECT, is on submission. This was a super fun book to write and I think any tabloid loving teen will love it.
10. Do you have any book recommendations for our avid readers?
Anything Meg Cabot or Lauren Myracle. Rhonda Stapleton’s Struck just came out (it’s her fun rom-com three-book series wrapped up in one book) and Kristin Walker’s A Match Made in High School is still one of the funniest books I’ve ever read. Her newest, Seven Clues to Winning You, comes out in April.
