The release date for Other Words for Love is quickly approaching! My publication journey started at the beginning of 2008, when I began writing this novel. More than a year later—in April 2009—I was thrilled to be offered a deal by my fabulous publisher, Random House/Delacorte Press. At that time, I was told that Other Words for Love would be published in Spring 2011, and that seemed so far away! Of course, it was far away—and in some ways it felt like an endless wait, but in other ways the time seemed to pass quickly. Now that my January 11, 2011 publication date is right around the corner, I’m very happy and excited to have reached this point! I’m also feeling very grateful and fortunate to have an opportunity to share my novel with readers. This experience is sort of like sending your child out into the world and hoping that everyone will love him/her as much as you do.
On Tuesday, January 11, 2011 - Other Words for Love was published and released to the public from Delacorte Books.
My release day could not have been more amazing. It was just like Christmas morning! I am so overwhelmed by the phenomenal response I have received from readers and book bloggers who have contacted me about Other Words for Love. It’s really fulfilling to hear that people are connecting with my main character—Ari—and her story. It was also very exciting to walk into Barnes & Noble and see my book on a shelf! As a writer, I spend a lot of time alone with my work. When I was writing this novel, it was just the story and its characters and me. Now it’s out in the world, and it’s incredible to see it there!

This books sounds great and has now been added to my TBR list. As a teenager in the 80's I'm sure that I can relate to the entire story!

Oh, this is a fantastic feature. I can't imagine how exciting it would be to walk into B&N and see your book. So fun!
And I'm always looking for debut author titles. Will have to check this one out.
Great idea for a feature - it's neat to see a bit of the author's personal reaction to the whole publishing experience! I would love to walk into a bookstore and see my book sitting there on the shelf :D
It must be so exciting for authors to see their books in bookstores! I totally want to have that feeling someday!
