A TRILOGY of blog tours!

Because I pride myself on being an international sort of chica, I was psyched when bloggers from Australia, Canada, and the USA all reached out wanting to be part of a BELLADONNA blog tour.

Therefore, I give you:




Featuring: reviews, fun Q&As, excerpted teasers with commentary, and an interview with a certain dashing artist.

I also give you:




This US tour kicks off with the release of the COMPLETE VENOM EPILOGUE which was cut during editing. Then, all week I will be posting exclusive excerpts from BELLADONNA and talking about research, revision, collaborating, etc. If you're interested in the writing process or checking out non-spoilery bits before the book hits the shelves, don't miss this tour. Tour ends with a giveaway of a STARLING ARC!

For love of blog tours...and MAD PRIZES

Hi! I just wanted to let you know about a few fun things coming your way:

I am doing a 4-day Summer Solstice Sequels blog tour with my fellow Breathless Reads alums Elizabeth Richards, Jessica Spotswood, and Lili Peloquin. All of these spots are filled, but thank you for your interest :)


We'll be hanging out on 4 different blogs and sponsoring 4 different contests with 4 different prizes. Also, I've heard there may be humiliating teen photos of us... On June 20th we're having a Twitter party under the #SSSequels hashtag where there will be MAD PRIZES.

Now that I have your attention, heh, I also wanted to tell you I'm thrilled to be doing an Australian blog tour as well as a North American one for BELLADONNA. The Aussie tour is good to go, but the American one needs four more bloggers. Dates for this tour are July 9th through July 15th. Since I only have a few spots, I will be giving precedence to bloggers that are really crazy about the series but that I have never done features with before. Not to say that I don't appreciate my super-loyal bloggers (you know who you are <333) but I just want to give some new people a chance to get in on the fun.

Requirements:
You must have a primarily YA book-related blog.
You must have at least 250 followers.
Your blog must be formatted and designed to be readable.
You must have read and reviewed Venom (GR, Amazon, blog, etc.)
You must be at least 13.

Is this you? Email me at fionapaulbooks at gmail dot com by June 10th if you're interested in being part of the tour. I will select people randomly from the responses I get. If you're not selected or your blog doesn't have enough followers, no worries. I have (at least!) 3 more books coming out and I promise I will include you in the future if you remain interested.

Thanks! Happy reading, writing, and living :)

For love of bloggers

So I haven't been as visible online lately because I finished graduate school and went on an epic trip without much internet access. And I honestly feel healthier being online less. I'm in the process of working up some promotional stuff for Belladonna's release, as well as edits for my contemp, revising a seekrit manuscript, and drafting an MG. (Not sure how that last one will go, but it's going to be a fun experiment).

Oh, and I'm looking for jobs in Portland, OR because I would like to move there. Do you live in Portland? If so, hire me :D

Anyway, I just wanted to say a kazillion hugs and love to all of the readers and bloggers who have posted, tweeted, emailed, and/or bought Venom. You guys mean the world to me, even if I'm not online every single day telling you that. Thank you, thank you, thank you! When I get a tweet like the one I got today, with the awesome fan art below, it totally blows me away and reminds me of how amazingly lucky I am to have supporters like you. Yes, YOU! So thanks to Nikki from Fiction Freak for this totally cute representation of Cass, and if anyone else has Venom fan art, send it my way so I can loooooooove on it :)
