I'm back from my vacation to Ohio, where I visited with family, hid out in the
Smucker's basement during a tornado warning (which was terrifying for a person who isn't from tornado country!), toured
the house where they filmed A Christmas Story, and had dinner with fellow 2013 debut YA novelist
Jennifer McGowan.
I'm making this post short but sweet due to jet lag, but I wanted to make sure my Lucky 13s giveaway announcement wasn't the top story on the site. That contest ended Sunday, and the winner was announced
here. Thanks to everyone who entered!
