Ahem.

Yes, I know I have not posted since... ahem... April 8, and I am supposed to post once a week, but I was traveling in places with HORRIFYINGLY SLOW internet coverage. Honestly, it was like being in 1990 or something. 

No excuse. No excuse.

Does it help if I say that while I was traveling I went to a National Show Choir Competition and my daughter’s show choir took second? Which is amazing for a tiny school from Maine.

It was not at all like GLEE. Just so you know. I was a bit disappointed because I imagined that there would be a lot of GLEE sort of magic involving hottie guest stars like Matt Bomer and boys wearing boy ties and girls never changing out of their cheer outfits.  They were still awesome. 

Does it help if I say I’m going to give away three copies of ENDURE randomly to people who post in the comments? I thought it might. You have until Monday, noon EST time to comment. If you are not a logged in person, make sure to check back and see if you won. Sometimes I have a hard time tracking people down.

Does it help if I say ENDURE is coming out May 8 in the US and right close to that in the UK? 

Hm.... Does it help if I say this is what I woke up to this morning?

She knows how to work it. Seriously.

*In other exciting news, ENDURE will also be an audio book with Brilliance. YAY! 
** And in even more exciting news (Well, for me it’s exciting), I got copies of the Romanian version of NEED yesterday. It was super cool.

*** And from the NEED BY CARRIE JONES Facebook page, which is run by my publisher:

They are also having daily contests to win ENDURE, so you should totally go check it out.
