Hi guys!
We just got word that LYKY is still on the top 10 of the New York Times bestseller list.
That’s 16 weeks, people!
As in…four months!
So, to celebrate…
1. food: tough one…probably pork roast with mashed potatoes and gravy
2. movie: really tough one…but I think either Roman Holiday or To Kill a Mockingbird. Either way, I love me some Gregory Peck.
3. book: TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD
4. reality show: Project Runway
5. thing I’ve purchased recently: a really small TV that hangs over my treadmill.
6: season: spring
7. holiday: Easter
8. article of clothing: STRETCHY PANTS!!!
9. luxury item: Netflix
10: sport: (to play or to watch? Oh, who am I kidding? I’m not going to play, so I’ll say watch) college basketball. Or college football. I have no use whatsoever for the pros.
11. part of any of my books: the ruby slippers scene in Cross My Heart
12: line in any of my books: “Crying is like everything else we do–it’s best if you don’t get caught.”
13: author working today: too many to count, so I’ll just say Rick Riordan since the Percy books just keep getting better and better (and, let me tell you, that’s waaaaay easier said than done!)
14. place I’ve ever been: I went to Scotland once when I was in high school and it seemed very much like the kind of place where a person could be supremely happy.
15. compliment: two way tie between “I couldn’t put your books down” and “it’s nice to have found books that my daughter and I can read together.”
16. flower: Zinnias
Thanks for another amazing week being among amazing company, gang!

ps…bonus thing that made me happy: I saw both LYKY and CMH at Target today. Somehow this made me giddier than almost anything to-date. Yay!
