Adrienne Crezo wrote an amazing review of our first book ROWAN OF THE WOOD.

I mean. WOW.

Great review!

She gave it 4/5 stars and said, among other things, that its plot was “full of twisty goodness.”

You know how I adore those Whedonisms.

Read the entire awesome review here.

She wrote this review for a wonderful little literacy movement called <3Write #Connect. I hadn’t heard about this movement before this review, but I am thoroughly intrigued!

Basically it’s a challenge. This literacy movement challenges writers to write something out of their comfort zone and for readers to read something that they wouldn’t normally read. Then, using the hashtag #writeconnect on Twitter, talk about the books you’ve read or that poem you’ve just written. Post drafts on your blog and spread it around. Review books, like Adrienne has done, that you wouldn’t normally have read.

Brilliant movement, really.

I’m actually in the middle of two books at the moment, both what I do: fantasy. Specifically vampire fantasy. But Ethan, who is also working on two books, might just take on that challenge and write a short story out of his fantasy comfort zone.

Perhaps I will, too, on a day that the magic just isn’t flowing through me (or if I run out of chocolate again).
