Today is the day!
Blind Spot is now out there, on the shelves of bookstores and online, in hardcover and ebook, for anyone to purchase!
This week is a busy one for me. I will be having my launch party tonight, October 23rd, at Nicola’s Books in Ann Arbor, MI at 7 pm. There’ll be door prizes and a book signing and . . . CAKE! Before the party though, I will be spending the day with high school students at Skyline High School and Chelsea High School.
October 24th kicks off my blog tour. I will be stopping by several blogs through November 2nd. See the schedule below for details.
On October 25th, I will jet over to Los Angeles to read at the LAPL Central Branch at 6:30 pm.
If you are able to attend one of my events, or if you bought Blind Spot and brought it out and about with you, take a picture and post it on my Blind Spot or YA AUthor Laura Ellen facebook page. I’d love to see more ‘Blind Spot in the wild’ pics 🙂

I loved the Top 10 Questions About Alaska! I was able to visit that beautiful state last year. Words cannot truly do justice in describing its natural beauty.
What a fun post! 🙂
Good Luck on your book. It’s quite a process, isn’t it. Anxious to pick up your book. My first YA book is in edit so I understand all that you’ve done to get your book published. Enjoy much success!
