I've updated a few things around elizabethwrites.com, mostly the Living Dead Girl page, where you can now read an excerpt (please note that the book is listed for ages 16 and up and is darker that the books I have out now), check out an interview I did with ALAN, and see my brand-new Kirkus review, which has made me very happy. (Which is to say that when my editor emailed it to me, my reply was all !!!!!!! and YAY!!!! because although I want to be dignified and say things like "Oh, that's wonderful news, thank you so very much," I--well, I'd rather squee. But I promise that the rest of the time I behave in an utterly dignified fashion, except for a brief period of time this morning where I didn't realize I had my shirt on inside out. And backwards.)*

Also! Don't forget the Picture This! contest--I am seriously in love with all the photos that have been sent in so far--please keep 'em coming!



*And okay, there was the time I wore two different shoes to work. That wasn't really dignified either. **

**Although only one person noticed, which either says volumes about the people I used to work with. Or me. Probably both.
