Road Trip Edition Podcast with Kiersten White, Andrea Cremer and Stephanie Perkins

We are so excited to share this Road Trip Edition podcast with you. Allison and I were lucky enough to head down to the Barnes & Noble in Oceanside to attend the launch party of Kiersten White's Supernaturally and Andrea Cremer's Wolfsbane. As if that wasn't cool enough already, Stephanie Perkins was also there signing her lovely romance, Anna and the French Kiss. We chatted about their books, fan crushes (go Team Shay! hehehe), French food, how their characters would react if they were to meet, and more. After the interview, we also went out into the crowd to meet some of their fans. So fun! Well that's enough blabbering from me... let's get to the show!

Road Trip edition podcast: YOUR input needed!

Exciting things are afoot here at Authors Are ROCKSTARS! As you know, we guarantee at least one podcast per month, but we often have the opportunity to offer more than that. And the month of August is no exception-- in addition to our upcoming interview with the supercool Gretchen McNeil, author of Possess, we'll be sharing a special "Road Trip" edition podcast with event coverage and an interview from the release party for Kiersten White's Supernaturally.



We are thrilled to have the chance to interview Kiersten along with Stephanie Perkins (Anna and the French Kiss), and Andrea Cremer (Nightshade, Wolfsbane) this coming Tuesday, July 26. And we thought we'd make our special edition podcast a little more special by asking for YOUR input, listeners! So. Do you have any questions for these awesome authors? Leave them in the comments and we'll be sure to ask on your behalf.

Oh, and there just might be an upcoming giveaway for autographed copies of their books when the podcast is posted... okay, who are we kidding-- of COURSE there will be a giveaway! Submit those questions by 10 pm PST on Monday, and stay tuned!

July Special Edition - an interview with Tracy Deebs

Looking for a fun, summer read full of beautiful ocean settings and kick butt half mermaid/half human heroine? Well, we've got just the book for you. It's "Tempest Rising" by Tracy Deebs. Ms. Deebs took some time out of her crazy schedule today to sit down with us via Skype. We talked about her book, the beautiful city of San Diego (where it takes place and where she and Allison grew up), what it was like to go from writing romance to writing young adult fiction, and the future of the Tempest Rising series. We had such a great time chatting with her. So without further ado.. the July Mini Edition of Authors are ROCKSTARS! Thank you for listening.
