oh, sweeeeeeeeeeties!
Check it out--an interview just got posted that E., Sarah, and I all gave together about How to Be Bad, which comes out in about a month!!!! (I'll link to it at the bottom of the entry.) AND, I just got my first "real" copy of the book itself, and it is gorgeosity. Here, take a look:  And here's the back:  And look! Actual words inside the book! (I love actual words inside a book!)  And for those of y'all who helped us pick our author photo, here's a peek at the jacket flap, where the author photo appears:  Ahhhh. Happy happy joy joy. And finally, here's the link to THE INTERVIEW, which is funny (I think) and which tells a whole lot about the book itself and how the three of us went about writing it without killing each other. Enjoy! http://keris.typepad.com/chicklet/2008/04/sarah-lauren-an.html Fri, Apr. 4th, 2008 02:22 pm (UTC)

Awesomeness! I'm off to read the interview, which I'm sure will be absolutely hilarious. Can't wait to get my copy of How to Be Bad! It looks great! Fabulous pictures. :) Fri, Apr. 4th, 2008 04:45 pm (UTC)

I loved reading the interview! I think interviews with authors are always interesting. A friend and I are kind of doing what you all did- well, in a mini-no-way-no-how-are-we-gonna-publish-it-because-we're-too-young way. But you get the idea. :)
Always post more interviews and things up! I love them!! Fri, Apr. 4th, 2008 07:22 pm (UTC)

(Anonymous): a boy....
Alright so I go to school, living my normal, boring, life, when all of the sudden the most AMAZING thing happens. I see this guy... He has perfect legth hair and this smile that makes *me* want to smile. Honistly every time i see that smile.... any way im digressing. Back on track! So the problem is i havent spoken two words to this boy. I don't even know what his voice sounds like! I'm normaly a rational person and I get to know boys before I like them but there was just somthing about this guy... Anyway here is the (list) of problems:
-he has never met me
-he's not on the *aproved guy list* wich has all the hot guys, (i don't get this at all cuz he is the HOTEST happiest guy alive!)
Also all I know about him is:
-he is in my grade
-he is hot
-his name is {cant tell}
So if anyone could tell me what to do. should i stop likeing him if i dont know him????

-Outside -a girl is new at a school and everyone hates her for NO REASON. based roughly on real life
- {no title. if u have any ideas give me ur e-mail and ill email u and u can e-mail me ur idea. or post it here}- a gohst story/ murder story about a girl who discovers an abandond playground....
-Why me? - a girls BFF starts going out with her longtime Boyfriend! Girl loses BFF and man of her dreams but gains alot about herself along the way. And it has a happy ending.
- The super top secret life of a teacher- I just came up with the idea for this! I've had it for a while but I cant get it oout of my mind..
- Someone better, someone worse- stuck up rich girl thinks she's best in the world. goes on global trip and learns there are such poor people, and also people so much better off than her. Becomes a better person
And sooooo much more! for more info just ask! :D Sat, Apr. 5th, 2008 01:25 am (UTC)

Lauren-
I was reading Thirteen, and then I looked at "See Jane Write". It's written by "farrin", and in thirteen, you mention a "farrin". Was that on purpose as a little nudge to them? If so, Cool! and if not, well, still cool, and cute name!! Tue, Apr. 8th, 2008 03:32 pm (UTC)
laurenellen: Re: hello
It WAS, you smartie! Your the first to notice! (I don't think Farrin herself as noticed...) Isn't See Jane Write fab? Wed, Apr. 9th, 2008 09:22 pm (UTC)
(Anonymous): Re: hello
That is so cool! If I ever write something to publish, I'm so going to mention someone in it! It's so awesome!!
I feel all special now... :)
I actually haven't read See Jane Write yet, but I looked it up online. Sounds great, and I plan to read it!!! Mon, Apr. 7th, 2008 12:27 am (UTC)

(Anonymous): How To Be Bad
I just hav a question about the book How To Be Bad. How old do u think u hav to be to read it? Tue, Apr. 8th, 2008 03:31 pm (UTC)
laurenellen: Re: How To Be Bad
Hrm. Good question. I think on the jacket, it says 14+. There are some bad words (unbelievably, not from my character this time) and kissing and beer. But the real content? Friendship, baby. That's what it's all about. ;) Mon, Apr. 7th, 2008 05:47 pm (UTC)
