You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

I talked to my lovely agent! I have a really nice two-book deal with HarperTeen! For my book about a girl with a zombie boyfriend!

I have to go pass out now.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Hooray, Amy!

I am SO excited, I have to say. I've wanted to write young adult for a really long time, and this is a huge opportunity.
