Get. Excited.
So, here's the deets:
Time: March 18, 2010 from 6pm to 8pm
Location: Books of Wonder
Street: 18 West 18th Street, NY
City/Town: New York, NY 10011
Sourcebooks Fire invites YOU to attend the launch party for our new Young Adult imprint. In attendence will be Fire authors and friends. All books will be available for purchase, including some that won't be out for a few months. Come and have them all autographed!
The event will also feature music by Tiger Beat--the first ever YA author Rock Group featuring Libba Bray, Daniel Ehrenhaft, Barney Miller, and Natalie Standiford.
(Editorial note: Squee!!! Libba Bray? Natalie Standiford? And...the best editor/amazing YA writer on the planet, Dan Ehrenhaft? IN A BAND? Laura and I are going to be a couple of inarticulate fan girls. Is it awkward to ask your editor to sign something that's not a contract? Wait...don't answer that.)
So, we're officially extending the invitation to all of our amazing blog friends. Want to see us make fools of ourselves in front of legendary authors, editors, agents and other publishing professionals? Or perhaps you'd just like to know once and for all which Roecker sister is the fun one? (Spoiler alert: It's totally Lisa. Duh.) Please, please RSVP here and send us an e-mail or a message on the Ning to let us know if you're coming. We'd love to meet some of you guys in person!

Oh I wish I could go! It sounds *amazing*!
(if I win the lottery between now and then, count me in)
i wish! you guys will have so much fun!
This sounds like such fun! I dearly wish I could go...unfortunately, I'm stuck in Utah until December...but then I'm moving back East! Yay! You ladies will have so much fun :)
Watch out...I remember that you get creeped out by hotels like I do! Have fun!
Sounds fantastic. NYC is one of my fave places. Have a blast!
How fun! Enjoy yourselves!
Oh how fun -- have a blast!
That sounds like the best launch party ever. I soooo would be there but have other-coast issues.
Have a blast!
Oh man! I'm clear across the country. Can you take picts and post them? Have a great time! (and Congrats!)
Hmmmmm you will be a mere train ride away....and Books of Wonder is the coolest store!
Oh my GAWD!!! I want to come!

Wish I could be there! Tiger Beat, ha!
I love that the band's name is tiger beat. You guys are going to have a BLAST!!!
I soooo wish I could go! You ladies have fun and take a ton of pictures. :D
I'll definitely be there! Can't wait! :)
A publishing party in New York??? I would so be there if it wasn't clear across the country. Please bring your flip cam and vlog all about it. Is Source Books putting out your novel? Not that I would expect your novel to put out or anything. I'm jut sayin'.
How could anyone not love a place called Books of Wonder?
So jealous. Don't let anyone sign anything below your forehead.
This sounds like a lot of fun, and I think I might be able to make it! I do have to be in Philly in the morning, but think my afternoon and evening are clear so I am going to see what I can do.
Sounds like fun! Take pictures for us!!
Arg! I SOoooo want to go! Someday, when the kids are older and the cash flow is, well, flowing, I look forward to throwing down everything and getting in on these literary scene events. (*sigh*) For now, I'll live vicariously through you. :)
Can't wait to hear all about it!
Wah. I'm so sad you guys aren't staying through the weekend so we can hang "fan girl" style.
Have a great time!
So cool! I wish I could be there!
I. WISH.
Party hearty on my behalf! And enjoy bumping elbows with all those fab literary types! I'll be in soggy VA working on a new round of queries...
*pouts a little*
Congrats! That is so awesome! You should have some vintage-inspired concert tees made. Then you can tell everyone you're "with the band". Haha! Hope you girls have a fabulous time in NYC- it's one of my dream places to see! :)
Exciting! Too bad I'm on the opposite coast and don't own a private jet for cross-country jaunts. You'll no doubt have many stories to share afterward, which I'll be looking forward to.
So jealous! That sounds so cool. I just finished Bray's Going Bovine and would *love* to hear her band. Have a great time!
Cool. I work about 2 blocks away from Books of Wonder. Would love to meet you both! And see Tiger Beat.
I'm totally jealous now of Lizzy and other New Yorkers who can go :P! Tiger Beat PLUS real life LiLa? Dang!
Have TONS of fun, and tell us everything! Preferrably with photos! :D
Sounds awesome! I hope you have an amazing time!
That sounds like so much fun! I would go if I could. You had better take pictures!!!
Oh... so not fair. I wish I could go. : (
But you guys have a blast. And video the fun parts for us. We don't want to miss a thing! : D
Man, I wish I could go! Have a TON of fun (as if I needed to say that!).
I'd love to...but I'm short on cash :(
Yay! I know you ladies are estatic!
If I lived in New York I would be there, no question.
I'm keeping you in prayers- congratulations!
Alright, call Sourcebooks and be like, "Listen, you need to have this event on the weekend so that Donna can go. Or like, push it back an hour or two." Make a weekend of it and head down to Philly!
Wow, that sounds AMAZING! I wish I lived near NYC!
But good luck (and have fun) to you two!
I wish I could be there--it sounds like a lot of fun!
Unfortunately I'm stuck in Ohio for, well, ever. :P
(BTW, I finally made a little vlog...although it's not nearly as entertaining or fun as yours are :) )
That sounds like a super-fun time. I'd give anything to be there. Alas, I cannot. I want to hear all about it, though. :-)
Grrr--I HATE being a west coaster sometimes. Take LOTS of pictures and I want a FULL update!
Sounds like fun. Have a great time.
So not fair!!! Why does NY get all the fun stuff? Gahhhhh ...
Take lots of pictures!!
Oh I wish. I will be busily preparing to go back to work. boo. jealous. very jealous.
SB
not too serious i hope
THATS FREAKING AWESOME =DDD I'm super happy for you guys!
NYC was so great, but mind you, finding a grocery store is close to impossible.
Go see the light show at the museum. It will blow your mind.
Also, if Spiderman asks you money for pictures with him... smack him. He deserves it for flirting with my friend ! D8<
That is all.
I wish I could come ~ ; 3;

Oh you're so lucky! I love NYC. At least what I've seen of it during the annual SCBWI conference two years ago (i.e. not a whole lot!).
Have tons of fun for us. And let us know how the band was.
Have a blast, but don't get blasted, you know, with your editor there and all. =)
Oh! I left you ladies an award on my blog today!
OMG I so wish I lived nearby and had the money! That sounds like such a blast! Have a great time, and can't wait to hear err read about it ;o)
How exciting! Have a wonderful time. Take lots of pictures to post on the blog. :)
So fun! I wish I could be there! I'm excited for you.
Wooooo Hooooooooo! Have fun!!!
Squee!! That is going to be EPIC. I wish I could be there!!!
I plan to buy your book the day it comes out. :)
Oooh, fun! And in NYC. Wish I could be there. Try Jacques Torres (D.U.M.B.O.) for the world's absolute best hot chocolate.
Wow--that's cool! Have fun!
