FOR THOSE REQUESTING REVIEW COPIES:
First, thank you so much for your interest! Here’s the thing about requesting review copies from me personally. I wish I could send them to anyone who asked. But, the truth is, I don’t get very many copies in which to send. (I got 5 for Darkness Becomes Her and 2 for A Beautiful Evil.) ARCs are expensive to print and while it used to be that publishers printed more (and sent authors more), the economy is such that cut backs are being made.
DARKNESS BECOMES HER: Since DARKNESS BECOMES HER released in Feb. 2011 and is already on the shelves, there are no longer advanced review copies being sent out. Final copies are now available in libraries, bookstores nationwide, and online, which makes me ridiculously HAPPY!
A BEAUTIFUL EVIL: ARC requests must be made to my publicist as I can’t send out review copies, simply because I don’t have them available to send. As stated above, I only got two ARCs for myself. Two. And those two I’m keeping.
My publisher has them and distributes them. Requests and any additional inquires, can be made here: Childrenspublicity@simonandschuster.com.
Thanks!
