Exactly one month after Release Day, and I’m so happy to be back! I know I say this all the time, but life has been insane since we let Simon and Tessa’s story out into the world. Splitting myself in half has always been a challenge, but it’s especially difficult when you’re mired in the workload at the office while your publicist is booking all these interviews and sit downs that require your time and attention.

The Inevitable Summer
Summer’s here! And so much going on! For one, I have an incoming high school senior, and you know that means college visits and a boatload of applications to check.

I saw O’Hare airport and sat in the Admiral’s lounge every single day this week. After the second flight was canceled, I was ready to call it a week on travel. And yet, my persistent nature would not let me rest until I got to my destination. The universe was trying ...
