The fun leading up to the release of RIDERS on February 16th has officially begun! Every Thursday, my awesome publisher Tor Teen and I will be sharing quotes from the novel. Here’s today’s:

CWYTyrNWEAAyRqVOn Fridays at 9 am PST, I’ll be randomly selecting one person who has retweeted the quote, or the RIDERS cover, or their general excitement about reading RIDERS, to win…drum roll…the awesome prize pack below!

It includes a beanie (so cozy), bracelets, pencils, bookmarks and signed poster. Please use the hashtag #readriders so I can find you. And, yes. If you’ve already retweeted, you are already entered! I’ll select U.S. winners for this one, but hope to be able to do some international giveaways soon. If you have any questions, please post them in the comments below.

Welcome to my new website! What do you think? Pretty epic, huh?layout3

I couldn’t be happier with it, and I have Icey Designs to thank. It’s such a pleasure to work with Hafsah. If you’re looking to design a site, I highly recommend her!

One of the things I love most about this site is the falcon image – because my dad drew it. Isn’t it incredible? It was a drawing he made to help with promotions for the UNDER THE NEVER SKY series. A falcon for Peregrine. When Hafsah and I were developing the site, we kept searching for an iconic image that we could build the site around. I suggested lighthouses and oceans (two things I dearly love) and we went back and forth for while, but we couldn’t land on the “right” image. Then I sent her this one and everything clicked. I think it’s perfect. It couldn’t be more meaningful to me. An image that my dad made to help promote my first novel. Good stuff.Image

Stay tuned for upcoming posts on RIDERS tour dates and giveaways. Things are about to get really fun!
