3 Things: Blog tour, Northrop Northrop bo-borthrop, and a giveaway
1) The official release date of my new book draws nigh, and that can only mean one thing: BUH BUH BUH BUH BUH BUH Blog Tour! The ROTTEN Tour starts on Monday and Marches all the way into April. It is hosted by the ever-awesome Savy at (appropriately enough) Books With Bite. There will be interviews, some fun guest blogs (including a list of the top dogs in YA novels and a punk-rock playlist), and reviews a-plenty. Here’s a look at the full schedule (which took me eight years to link):
Week One:
March 11: Books With Bite Tour Kickoff (Giveaway)
March 12: Supernatural Snark (Guest Post)
March 14: Candace’s Book Blog (Giveaway)

2) The site TeachingBooks.net has a cool directory of author names, with little audio clips about how they’re pronounced, what they mean, and things like that. I recently became one of the, uh, less famous authors on the list, so if you ever wondered how my last name is pronounced (hint: not quite like it’s spelled) or exactly what a “throp” is, anyway, have I got the link for you!
3) I’m giving away three signed hardcovers of ROTTEN on Goodreads. Which means I have to be on Goodreads, which is frankly a horrible idea for any author, but since when have I ever known what’s good for me? In any case, feel free to hop on over and enter.
