WAKE UP: The When We Wake blog tour
Time to talk about me!
No, wait, time to talk about MY NEW BOOK.
Internets, When We Wake has been released in North America. I was lucky enough to do a blog tour on five awesome young adult fiction blogs to coincide with this release.
BUT. I didn't really want to do a blog tour when people ask me questions and then I answer, because I already had lots of that kind of interview lined up. Even though I could happily talk about my process and inspirations forever (which reminds me, I owe you a Sleeping Beauty essay on Captain America) I didn't want to go around repeating myself.
SO. My awesome publicist was like, why don't they interview When We Wake CHARACTERS? And I said, yes! Faye, you are brilliant! They can interview characters on topics relevant to the book!
So that's what we did. Massive thanks to Faye and Little, Brown for organising everything, and even more massive thanks to the bloggers, who really put the extra effort in to come up with compelling, relevant, interesting questions! I am super happy with the WAKE UP tour, which you can read by clicking on the links below.
If you are in the US, you can also enter giveaways for the book!
The WAKE UP tour:
Bethari talks about media and communications at Novel Novice.
Abdi talks about immigration at The Book Smugglers.
Dr Marie Carmen talks about science and medicine at 365 Days of Reading.
Tegan talks about music at Forever Young Adult.
Joph talks about the environment at The Readadventurer.
