And thanks for all the comments everyone!<br /><br />To clarify - I wrote THE DUFF in just under 2 months.I spent another revising and then about a month querying. After signing, I spent some time editing with my agent before going on submission. All in all, from writing hte opening line to it selling, equaled seven months. I've just been INSANELY lucky to have the right book at the right time really.Kody Keplingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11321892438661073133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328014776473730528.post-55749406333392018532010-09-03T18:04:38.904-04:002010-09-03T18:04:38.904-04:00I loved the interview and the authors openess.

Now I'm even more psyched to read The DUFF! <br /><br />Fact of the matter is, it releases on the first day of school for me. <br /><br />And If I were the type to, you know, ditch school for a legitimate reason (because, ahem, I am not that type at all) , I just might take this as a legitimate excuse. <br /><br />Woops, I totally forgot that there was a mom in the building.
