Life Actually Tour – May-June, 2013!

One of my very favorite things about being a writer is getting to meet and participate in events with lots of different writers! This month, I’m lucky enough to be participating in Random House’s Life Actually Tour with Lurlene McDaniel, Elizabeth LaBan, Anna Jarzab and more!

Below are the events I’ll be participating in, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg for this amazing tour, celebrating realistic fiction and the release of Lurlene McDaniel's new book, The Year of Luminous Love. Check out the full list of events at LifeActuallyTour.com.

Hope to see you soon!

The Coolest Cake in the World

So this past Tuesday was my book’s official pub date, but it turned out that Monday, May 10th, was the much more exciting day. First, on Monday morning, I found out that The Beautiful Between was reviewed in Publishers Weekly (this is my favorite part): “Sheinmel makes an impressive debut with an absorbing tale of unlikely friendship, loss, and family secrets…the intriguing and well-defined characterizations will keep readers riveted.” But Monday became even better that afternoon because the folks at my office threw me a surprise party in honor of The Beautiful Between . They even had a cake with the book’s cover somewhat magically reproduced in frosting. Now, I made my boss promise me that I wouldn’t have to speak at the party, because I was totally embarrassed, but if I had talked, I think I would have said something about how much I love Random House Children’s Books, how lucky I feel to work there, how much my life has improved – personally and professionally – since I began work
