This is either me being very productive, or procrastinating doing edits on the first draft of the sequel. I'll pretend it's the former (but we all really know it's the latter). So, here's the news: I got the first draft of my press release and made some changes to it to make it better reflect what I want people to get out of my book. It's so funny to hear what other people say about your work. What they feel is important is sometimes quite the reverse of what you thought was the point of what you were writing. This is not to say that you weren't clear, it's just reading and writing are so subjective. For example, I thought that the fact that my story was based around Jewish and Eastern European folklore was something that set it apart from most other fantasy novels. The people in the press department thought that the fact that my protagonists were all girls was most important. Huh. So, we decided to add a line in their 'Yay! Girl power!' press release to say something about the folklore, and now everyone's happy.

In other news, the boys were mad that so far only Hailey made it into my blog. They feel they have important things to say as well. Here they are:

This xylophone mallet totally makes me look like a wizard smoking a pipe. Right?
