The Forbidden Library Cover, and Blog Updates
In the past few weeks I’ve been gearing up for the release of The Thousand Names, so I haven’t been blogging much. Expect a flood of stuff after July 2!
And, while we’re all excited about the release, I’d like to take a moment to show off the covers for my middle-grade fantasy The Forbidden Library. Check it out! (Click through for big versions.) Here’s a GoodReads link with a bit more info. It releases in April 2014, so there’s obviously a lot more to come!
