Blog postSometimes it's a little intimidating to talk about my faith. As a Christian, I'm never quite sure how I'll be received. But as I've been Bible Journaling lately, lots of you have seemed interested in it and have had some questions, so I thought I'd try to get to them in a blog post.
First, my new Bible is an ESV Single Column Journaling Bible. I was very tempted by another one, but it was so expensive! But this one is great. There's plenty of room for notes or art, and my pastor -
Blog postI could not hold my breath for seven minutes. I couldn’t even make it to one. I once tried to run a mile in seven minutes after hearing some athletes could do it in four but failed spectacularly when a side stitch crippled me about halfway in.
However, there was one thing I managed to do in seven minutes that most would say is quite impressive: I became queen.
By seven tiny minutes I beat my brother, Ahren, into the world, so the throne that ought to have been his was mine. Ha -
Blog postOkay, some of the logistical information on this is a little tricky, so let me share what I’ve learned:
Costco: 1085 Hanes Mall Blvd, Winston-Salem, NC 27103
(336) 970-2300
I’ll be signing from 1-3PM.
You do not need a membership to come to the event.
You cannot bring your own books to be signed.
You cannot purchase books at the store without a membership.
You can still meet me, get pictures and hugs with me, etc. And if you are creative en -

Blog postIt’s late in the day, but I thought I’d take a moment on this Father’s Day to mention what seems to be one of your favorite things about The Selection: the dedication. You’ve all seen it. You’ve taken pics and sent it back to me with smiley faces next to it. I know you dig it.
So let me explain where it c

Blog postSo, I feel like this is bound to happen. If you’ve preordered The One, there is a huge chance that it will ship early, or maybe a bookstore will stock it a week in advance. And, because you have waited so long, there is no reasonable way to ask you not to open it up.
If you come across a copy in the next two weeks, I hope you get a chance to enjoy it. And I also hope that you will allow those who have to wait to have the exact same experience as you.
I’ve been guarding these sec -
Blog postNow it’s time for my final inspiration post. We started with where the first book began, at America’s house. So let’s close with where the first book ends: the palace.
I also have several pages of notes dedicated to the palace, but the one I’m going with is what we see outside.
I think the picture here is actually of the Spelling Manor. Visually, it’s the closest I can find to what the palace looks like to me. Now, I use the word palace (not castle) intentionally. Castles are -
Blog postSorry for the delay on this post, but we’re back today with the final two posts for Inspiration Week. Now that we’ve discussed Aspen at length, it’s time to move on to the other boy who is slowly devouring our souls: Prince Maxon Schreave.
I’m going to be honest, I think one of the reasons I was shocked when so many people immediately abandoned Aspen and favored Maxon was because for me (and America, might I add), Maxon didn’t make sense. Maxon was this distant figure, and for how rem -
Blog postToday is the day! It’s America’s birthday, and in celebration, I’m looking at my inspiration for her. Now, honestly, there are multiple pages dedicated to America in my inspiration book. Some solely focused on her hair or clothes. So when it came time to choose one, I decided to go the page that had the least.
That probably seems unfair. If I’m supposed to be sharing… then why aren’t I sharing? Mostly because she didn’t.
In the beginning, things with America were sparse. She’s -
Blog postToday, we’re going to move from America’s home to the tree house. Namely, to the boy who waits there for her. Yes, today we’re looking at Aspen Leger.
Now, the image that I’ve had saved for Aspen the longest (which, I admit, is a bit of a shocker) is this one:
I know Efron is a strange choice, especially because when I see him, I sometimes think of Maxon. But it isn’t his facial features here that grab me so much as how dirty he looks. He seems gritty in his jeans and his boot -
Blog postAs the diehard Selectioners know, this Wednesday, February 26, is America’s birthday. Woot woot! To celebrate both her birthday and the final book in the trilogy coming out soon, I thought it might be fun to spend this week looking back. I want to take you to the start, to 2008, when I really started working on America’s story. I’d write bits and pieces, but when I needed to pause (or was forced to by a heroine who took her sweet time letting me get to know her), I’d work on the world surroun

Blog postOver the years, I’ve tried to let you guys into my life. One, because my filter is pretty low, and I just like to share, and, two, because I think it helps you guys to know that I’m more than a name on the spine of a book. I’m an actual person. But in the same way I can delete words to shape the stories you love, I can edit out specific scenes of my life, showing you the best bits, so it looks a certain way.

Blog postHey guys, just wanted to follow up on my post on the signed version of the Barnes and Noble special edition. If I missed anything, let me know and I'll add on!
1 Will this be available in other countries?
No. Very sorry, but no. But I’m working on international trips, so maybe I’ll get to see you and sign your books one day.
2 I ordered my special edition a while back, so will it be one of the limited ones signed?
No. I know this is confusing, but this is a sep -
Blog postYou guys had a lot of questions about The Selection Stories, The Guard, and things that were included, so I’m going to try and clear things up as much as possible.
1 Yes, you read correctly. If you get The Selection Stories, you get three chapters of The One, and if you get The Guard, you get two.
2 It does not matter where you pre-order The Selection Stories from. Amazon, B&N, BAM, or your local indie will all have the same material. The only book that has different conte -
Blog postI wanted to talk to you guys about twitter and three main things that I think need to be addressed about the community there. I have to say, I really love it on twitter! It’s so nice to be able to talk to you guys! But as the fandom gets bigger (which is awesome) it gets a bit harder to manage (which is unawesome). So, for now, I’m going to have to suspend Question Monday.
There are three main reasons I have to cut this off for the time being. One, a lot of the questions are things me -
Blog postA lot of cover art has made its way to us recently, and it’s exciting to gush and speculate and even just stare. From the very first mockup sent to me by HarperTeen, I’ve been thrilled with their concept for the covers. I spoke about how it all came together once upon a time, and let’s just say my first ideas were a bit embarrassing. But here we are, eight months away from the end, with six different images to tie to America’s

Blog postAre you really coming to the Philippines?
Yes. This is real. This is happening. You need to prepare yourselves.
Are the events free?
Yes! There is a registration before the event to see what order you get your book signed in, but they are both free. You might need to purchase a book to have signed, but if you already have a copy purchased from National Book Store, Powerbooks, or Bestsellers, you’re good to go.
What will you be doing?
My guess is mostly -
Blog postI’ve seen you guys ask why you should bother shipping Aspen and America. Like he isn’t even a valid option for her or something. I mean, I get what you’re saying. Maxon’s cute and sweet and they have an unexpected chemistry, so it’s easy to forget about Aspen sometimes.
But here’s the thing.
Aspen is the first boy that gave America that butterflies in your stomach feeling. For two long years she spent the worst and hardest parts of her day reminding herself that the bad stuff -

Since I decided to make my laptop all pretty, people have been asking just how I did it. I didn’t document it in pictures, but I figured I could show you what I used and give you some tips on doing it yourself.
First, I chose a theme. I went with clear and pearly gems, and purple flowers. I thought they’d look nice on the green of my laptop. If you have a colored laptop, take it with you where you go to buy your supplies to make sure they’ll look pretty.

Blog postOn Friday, I went to Mt. Tabor High School to speak at two classes. This is an image of the creative writing class studying my short story, In the Clearing . Not gonna lie, it was totally humbling to have them actually break it down. They had even written some pieces from other characters’ POVs, and every one I heard was AWESOME! I brought some home, and I’m going to hoard them like buried treasure.
My speaking event at the actual BookMarks Festival was one of the last ones on Saturda -
Blog postAs if you didn’t already know, here’s everything that’s going on:
The Selection is out in the world, and thanks to you all, it’s doing very well. I get notes every day from people saying it’s one of their faves now, and there are some great tumblr pages dedicated to it, and I’m super happy.
The Elite is all but done! The next step is the first pass pages, which means I get to see the book the way it will be printed. And I’m pretty sure I get to show you the cover art next mont
