What I´m reading
I’m halfway through THE PIPER’S SON by Melina Marchetta and I fell hard for this book.What I’m Writing
- I have 1000 words of my new WiP ALWAYS SECOND BEST and I’m in love with the characters already
- I revised one chapter of DADDY’S LITTLE GIRL.
- And on Sunday, I finished a round of revision for ONE TWO THREE, and sent it off to a certain someone 🙂
What else I´ve been up to
- So many things. Some of which I still cannot say. I thought I might be able to announce it on Friday but it looks like it’s going to be next week. Stay tuned.
- I’ve helped celebrating the launch of ALIENATED by Melissa Landers yesterday and you can still win a NOOK here 🙂
What inspires me right now
My friends who also happen to be writers 🙂 and who I have been pestering with emails these past two weeks. Thank you! ❤
#WriterRecharge which comes really at a perfect moment of time.
And then…the release of Rebecca’s book!
Sooo….HAPPY BOOK BIRTHDAY @rebeccabehrens 🙂 🙂 😉 WHEN AUDREY MET ALICE is out and I cannot wait to read it! http://t.co/4CIgnzwNox

And the release of Erin Bowman’s novella STOLEN...and Melissa’s ALIENATED.
This oh-so-honest blog post by Dahlia about how she “does it all” and putting a bit of perspective into that very particular concept.
Thank you! RT “@MissDahlELama: Welcome to the terrible, horrible inside of my head – I Don’t Know How She Does It: http://t.co/55Zq6WUhDd”

Oh, THE PIPER’S SON… How I love that book! I think it’s about time for MM to publish a new contemporary. 🙂 Have you read her Lumatere trilogy? If not, you must. I’m not a huge fantasy girl, but they are some of the absolute best. Best of luck with all of your #WriterRecharge goals, Elodie. You’re totally going to rock this month!
Yes she needs to publish a contemporary very soon like the story of Frankie’s brother and Tom’s sister…I have her Lumatere trilogy but haven’t started it yet 🙂 Thank you so much for the encouraging words, Katy!

I don’t know why but I think Melina Marchetta’s books will be too slow for my taste. They sounds incredible though ..
Yay for loving your new characters!
Good luch with #WriterRecharge!
Those books do build up slowly but I get so attached to the characters I don’t want to let go once the story is over…hope you’re enjoying the snow 🙂 and yay for getting your e-ARCs ready 🙂

So we’re all going to be on pins and needles now waiting for your news! 😉
And hooray for 1,000 words and being in love with your characters! Best part about being a writer (in my oh-so-humble opinion) *grin*
Hope you have an amazing week and good luck with Writer Recharge!
Thanks 🙂 I’m quite excited about this new WiP…and it’s fun to write new words! I was all ready to come out with my news this Friday but it just seems like I won’t have everything I need until next week. 🙂

I hope you can make your announcement soon–it sounds like you’re dying to tell everyone… 😀
When Audrey Met Alice has the cutest premise! I’m impressed how you are juggling at least 3 writing projects. Not easy.
Wow! You got a ton of writing done! Congrats!!!
great job with your goals! I read that post by Dahlia Adler and thought it was great, very inspiring and reminded me that we all to figure out our goals, schedules, and priorities.
Can’t wait to hear your news! Great job on all the writing!
I’m curious now. Given that mini teaser, I’m now have every expectation that your upcoming week will be great. Happy writing, and reading.
I’m looking forward to reading ALIENATED and WHEN AUDREY MET ALICE too. Have a great week and good luck with your revisions! 🙂
Your very busy but it sounds great. That’s great that you are writing heaps. Have a great week.
I can’t wait for you to share your good news! And I am very happy to take a look at what ever you need me to! I’m hoping *fingers crossed* to have my revision beta-ready soon so I’ll need some quality reading while I wait for CP feedback! Have a great week!
Thank you! 🙂
Writer Recharge is such a cool idea! I’m cheering everyone on (and hoping to recharge my writing this weekend!)
Ooh, I’m intrigued. 🙂 Have a great week!
Yay for productivity! I’m glad you’re getting so much done this week. I’m excited for you to finally make your announcement. 🙂
You’re making awesome progress on your writing and revising, Elodie! Very inspiring. 🙂 You’ve also reminded me that I need to get back to another Marchetta book: FROI OF THE EXILES. I read FINNIKIN awhile back and even bought FROI but still haven’t read it. She’s a great author, so I’m looking forward to it! Hope you’re having a great week!
