Coming Soon to a City Near You...



The dates for the Get Real tour are finally finalized and we could not be more excited!!! Well, excited and terrified. I have this vision of us stopping at bookstores and seeing lines out the door for the crazy talented Janet Gurtler and Miranda Kenneally while Laura and I sit at a table alone eating Twizzlers.

So, um, you guys will come see us, right? Because we will be so happy to see some friendly faces in all of these new cities. This marks a lot of firsts for us:

1. First national book tour.

2. First time away from our kids and husbands for more than a long weekend.

3. First time visiting Seattle, Phoenix and Minneapolis.

4. First time we've spent 10 consecutive days together since 1997.

5. First signing of a finished copy of THE LIES THAT BIND.

Now that I've successfully made us sound like long lost members of the Duggar family, please click here to see a full list of tour stops and be sure to let us know if you're planning on attending one of the events. We'll save you a pearl bracelet and a Twizzler! And, if you aren't able to make it to any of the tour stops you can always order a signed copy of THE LIAR SOCIETY or THE LIES THAT BIND from The Learned Owl.

The incredible Sourcebooks team has a ton of events and promotions around the tour and the book launch planned for the next couple of months, so stay tuned for contests, vlogs and assorted randomness.

Can't wait to see all of you in November! We'll be the ones sitting alone at the table with neon colored hair and pearls!We're so excited, we're so excited, we're so...scared.

Er. I have the same nightmare, only in mine, you guys and Miranda have adoring readers and I'm silently weeping inside with no one to talk to.

First of all, I LOVE this new site. So 2014. Second of all, I will see you in Santa Monica!

Now that I have figured out how to leave a comment I would like to say WTH???

Tempe, AZ but no Houston, TX? Come on!!! Add Houston. Add Houston. Add Houston.

Blue Willow Bookshop. I promise to be there! Then maybe I can quit crying over missing Lisa McMann the other night.

Wish I could come and meet you guys in person. I went to the Learned Owl, but couldn't figure out how to get a signed copy of your newest book...

Ok, so I can either meet you in Oakland, Santa Monica or Tempe. All easy cities for me to get to, but if I come you have to promise me that we either eat or drink together or both. I mean.... an autograph is totally worth the airfare, but I used to be part of the family and my abandonment issues may come up. You'd hate to see me crying in a line with a bunch of blue-haired girls, right?

Lisa - I'll be at the signing in Arlington! On my family google calendar and Aaron's been notified he's on babysitting duty that night. Looking forward to it!!!

Don't call this a comeback

So it’s been a minute. Or 10. Or truthfully more like 2,102,400. At least we think that’s how many minutes there are in 3 years, but let...
