Is it just me, or is this the most insane summer ever? Seriously. Between camps and tours and conferences and playing hostess to a stream of visitors staying at my house, I think I'm about to explode. Please tell me I'm not the only one.
Among the chaos, though, a lot of great things have been happening for me and REMAKE. My publisher has done some amazing things to bring my book exposure, and a lot of cool stuff is in the works that I hope to share soon. In the meantime, I'm doing my best to enjoy the journey and remain grateful that my publishing dream is coming true. Less than three months until release...eep!
After meeting with my publisher earlier this week in which they key phrase was "deep breaths, deep breaths," the next several months of my life have gone from crazy to CRAZY. So apologies if I can't get to everyone's posts or have to pass on critiques or helping with reveals and such. I love supporting my fellow writers, but a little break shouldn't hurt, right?
I did promise an ARC giveaway, so here's my first attempt at one of those Rafflecopter thingys. I hope it works. :)

What have you been up to this summer?

This email ad was sent out last week from Publishers Weekly-- resulting in one of PW's highest click-through rates of all time. So cool! |

Only 3 months - that's so very exciting and I can't wait to read it! I'm sure the whole process is pretty stressful and this summer has seemed pretty crazy! It's all worth it for your publishing dream to come true. :)
Just enjoy the ride. You only have a first release once.
I'm so excited to read this one! It comes out on my daughter's birthday. :) I think a little you-became-a-mom-ten-years-ago-today present is in order for me. ;-)
Ilima
I am so so excited for you, you have always amazed me with everything you do! Good luck on your next book! And have fun with this one
I have not been this excited about a new book in a long time! I am SO excited to get my hands on it. The sooner the better! Thanks for the giveaway!
I'm so happy for the great exposure your book is getting!
So, so excited for you!
Eeeeeee!!!!! I want it, I want it, I want it!!!!!!
I'm so excited to read this book!
The good news is deep breaths really do work (says the yoga instructor). You'll do great. Also, so cool about PW and all the happy surrounding REMAKE!
Yeah, this summer is crazy. It's not just you. I hope things calm down soon for you and I'm so excited for you and REMAKE!
Enjoy the excitement while it lasts Ilima. Sorry it's not international but all the best with your giveaway.
Only three months???*squee* Hope things calm down a bit so you can enjoy it to it's fullest.
This cover is probably one of the most gorgeous covers I've ever seen. <3 it!!
I WANT TO READ THIS!!!! You are an amazing person Sister Todd!!! Anything you write... I will read! :-)
If I win can I get a love letter included with the autograph?? Yes!!!
Can I just tell you how much I LOVE the cover for Remake?! I can't wait to read it!! Congrats, Ilima!!
SO cool! :D
I cannot wait!!
You know I am over the top excited for you and have always been one of your biggest fans. I can't wait to read Remake. :)
And- yes, I agree- this summer has been super crazy busy for me too. I thought I was going to be able to take it easy this summer and just cruise. Hardly! I have been totally bananas. Everyone wants to come and visit "the Shore" in the summer. I should start charging rent at my hotel/house.!! HA.
I won't lie... this may be one of the most exciting giveaways so far this year. So excited for you and excited about this book!
I'm so excited for your book!!!!!!! It's going be epic :)
So excited for you! And, yes, it's official - this is the most insane summer ever. ;)
This summer has been insane for me as well. Not as insane as yours, but insane enough.
Three months!!! So close!!!!
I guess having a good break would definitely not hurt. You’ve already gone through a lot of headaches finishing and promoting your book, after all. Anyway, I’m kinda intrigued with the ‘Remake’. The winner must’ve been very lucky to win your giveaway. Cheers!
