The only constant is change

SO -- first and foremost: I got my computer back and guess what?? IT WORKS AGAIN! I CAN BLOG!

BILL IS MY HERO!!! Everyone cheer for Bill for fixing my computer!!

Next, did you all see my amazing cover yet??

If not, let me give you another chance to drool:

Oh, I how I love this cover. It's so perfect for DEFY. I can't wait for you to all read it and find out why! 

And as far as that change I referenced in the title of this blog? Well... when my cover got revealed I also announced my pub date was Jan. 1 (yay New Year's Day!). At first all the websites had that as the release date, but then it changed on Amazon AND B&N (where DEFY is available for pre-order) to Jan. 7th. At first I was told nothing had officially changed, but I just got word that the release date has officially changed. So now you will be able to nab DEFY on my son's 5th birthday aka JANUARY 7th, 2014!!! 

Today is also your last chance to enter the contest on the YA Valentine's blog to win 2 amazing books, so hurry and enter if you haven't yet!

And in non-writing related news, I've never been more nervous before a race than I am right now for Ragnar Wasatch Back tomorrow through Saturday. It might have something to do with the fact that I got added to the team exactly a week ago, because they had someone drop out and they were desperate so I just couldn't say no. And it might have something to do with my knee still being jacked up, and having not trained at all. But I'm also SO excited. I've always wanted to do Ragnar and figured I'd never be able to now, with my lame knee. But I'm going to pop advil like it's candy, and I'm going to do it! And if I can't walk for a week, so be it. ;-) 

See you all on the flip side!
