Happy birthday, Kate!


Happy birthday, Kate!

Thank you sooo much, Team Canterwood, for your birthday emails! I gave Kate her present this morning in a Zac Efron folder (just like how Sasha described Jacob for the first time) and she looooved it. She even took it to work to show all of her co-workers what you’d written. You guys are the best and it’s making her birthday more sparkly with each letter she reads.

And since we’re on the topic of her awesome books, I’m reading K’s copy of Kekla Magoon’s CAMO GIRL next (out Jan ’11) and from everything she’s told me, it’s going to be fantastic. It even got a mention in Publishers Weekly!

10 days until SCANDALS! :)

10 more days till SCANDALS comes out! Yaaay! Superbusy plotting CHOSEN and doing personal stuff, but I’m going to be stalking bookstores when SCANDALS comes out. 🙂 Some of your stores may already have it since a lot of stores release it early. It’s craaaazy to think about CC #11 being out there soon. I Tweeted a pic of my copies and you can see the front and back. Very exciting!

A million hugs to all who have been helping me with my special super secret project. I’m overwhelmed with gratitude and touched by your kindness and support. You’re all amazing and generous. Many hearts! I’ll update you all about how it goes when I present Editor K with her present from Team Canterwood.
I hope you all have a great weekend.
xoxo

Super Secret Project Update :) Prize!

Sooo many of you have been superkind and generous and have sent birthday e-mails (and a few other notes) to me to give to the fab Editor K on her birthday.

And . . .

I decided to give something back.

If you’ve already sent me a birthday note

OR

You send me one via e-mail (jess_burkhart AT hotmail DOT com (this is the easiest for me to print :))

then you’re entered into a random drawing to win one of two *signed* copies of SCANDALS, RUMORS, LIES, when I get them. Yaaay!

Deadline: November 7th

Thank you, Team Canterwood, it has meant so much to read all of your birthday notes and I can’t wait to pass them on. 😀

Shhh . . . secret and I need Team Canterwood’s help!

Okay, so . . .

Editor K’s birthday is November 10th. As you know, she’s the one who made Canterwood possible. She has worked on every book to make it as fun, fast, and horsey as can be and she’s the reason why there are going to be 16 books.
I want her birthday to be a big deal.
So, guys, I’m asking for a favor–a really, really important one.
If you could, whenever you like, e-mail me (long, short, whatever you like!) a happy birthday note to Kate, I’ll save them all, print them and give them to her on her birthday.
If you don’t want to send an email, then maybe you could Tweet at her–she’s @EditorK on Twitter on 11/10.
This would mean SO much to me and I really want to give something back to the amazing person who has done so much for our favorite books. We owe her a ton of thanks and I want this to be a supersparkly birthday.
And guess what else? You can also send cards to:

Thank you all. Much love! ❤
