Hey, everybody... I did a guest blog post for Teens Read Too. If you want to know what I lost during one week in August (and the answers to several other questions) visit here: http://trtbookclub.blogspot.com/
I also just want to say a huge thank you to Jen Wardrip who works like crazy for that blog! Her dedication is amazing!

My First Ever Blog Review in a Foreign Language!
...And the language is--Portuguese!
I guess I never thought about things concerning my book showing up in a foreign language. True, I thought it was pretty awesome when I noticed my book had sold a copy or so in Japan, Germany and France. But I wasn't anticipating having to go to the google translator to figure out what someone in Brazil thought of my book. (Remember all those lessons my U.S. buddies, about how the colonization of South America happened, and which countries ended up speaking Portuguese and which ended up speaking Spanish? Well, here's the real world application of that knowledge for me!)
I've goteen some requests from other bloggers in Brazil for copies of the book to review. Thanks all you Brazilian Bloggers out there for spreading the word about books!
If you're interested, check it out.
