Skary Childrin and the Carousel of Sorrow! Coming in paperback March 12th! Go get it! What? You already have it in hardback and as an ebook? Then you’d best complete your collection! ;-)
And because I know you’ll ask: I’m presently wrapping up some edits on Chapter 2 of my next book. So another book’s happening, too. But it’ll take a little longer than March 12th.
I’m changing my PO Box! The old one is officially closed. I’ll post my new address once that’s all set up. So, if you were wanting to send me letters or books to sign, please hold onto them! My PO box mail will not forward! Stay tuned for the new address.

Oh, hey! I can’t read anything on this site because my knowledge of Spanish is limited to a few polite greetings and half the lyrics to “La Bruja,” but it looks like this is one place where you can purchase EL CARRUSEL DE LAS SOMBRAS: Y LOS NIÑOS ESPANTOSOS. If you know of any other sites selling the Spanish translation of Skary Childrin and the Carousel of Sorrow, let me know!
Lots of you have asked me how to get your copies of Skary Childrin and the Carousel of Sorrow signed, which makes me smile from ear to ear, and smiling that wide makes my face hurt. But enough of you have asked that I thought it high time I just posted the info publicly so that you have quicker access to it.
If you’ve got a copy of the book, and you’d like to have it signed by me, here’s what you do:
1. Mail your copy of the book to me along with a prepaid self-addressed envelope that’s big enough to hold the book. If you’re in the US, it’s easiest if you use a Priority Mail flat rate envelope. Send it to:
ADDRESS TBA (I’ve closed the old box.)
2. Email me to let me know you’ve sent me something so that I’ll know to go and actually, you know, check my mail. If you don’t do this, you’re at the mercy of my laziness.
3. Be sure to let me know what name to sign the book to and if there’s any special message you want me to write. Otherwise, I’ll just make out the inscription to the name on your return address.
And that’s it! Easy, isn’t it?
I’m a little late to this one, but check out this review of Carousel from 6th grader Tam! My favorite line: “Maggie, on the other hand is uncomfortably strong. I’m talking strong as in she can carry a whole mantelpiece jam-packed of enormous heavy dictionaries in one hand, and without breaking a sweat either.” So true!
