A Little Update...




I have sent in the first draft of 18 Kisses to my editor! I actually can't wait to do the rewrites, because I really, really like writing this book! It took me a while to get my head around it, I wrote about 4 drafts until I was happy with how the story went, but I'm super excited now.

I am also super excited about the Puffin Summer Party, which I'm going to next week in London! My invitation came in a pink envelope, just one of the many reasons why I ♥ Puffin.  I'm super excited about it, especially as I'll get to meet the Puffin UK team. I've spoken with some of the team through email and twitter but have never actually met them.  My friend and I decided we'd go over to London for a few days, to catch a musical and do some sight-seeing and what not! I'm so looking forward to it.

In other news, I'm currently:

Listening to: Let it Break - Gemma Hayes
I really like this album, especially the track called 'Shock to my System.' You may recognise her tunes as they appeared in T.V. shows such as Pretty Little Liars and The Vampire Diaries.

Watching: The O.C.
I have rediscovered my love for this show (first and second season are awesome) and have also rediscovered my obsession with Seth Cohen.  He's just so CUTE.

Reading: Lauren Oliver's Before I Fall.  I'm late to the party, as she's already a mega super-star, but if you haven't read it then you must!  It's like Mean Girls with a dash of supernatural, really realistic characters and wonderfully written.  It is SO good. I am rushing out to buy Delirium right this second.

I missed you blog buddies! Now that I'm out of first draft seclusion I will be on here way more.  I also really want to improve my time management skills... which is probably easier said than done, but I'm definitely gonna give it a try.

I hope you are all doing fabulously :)
