I AM! I’ll be at the Baltimore one – it’s like, 20 min from my house! 😀
Thank you so much!
May 6, 2013 @ 4:02 pm
YAAAY!!!! Agh, that makes me so happy. 😀
May 6, 2013 @ 4:30 pm
I’m totally hoping to make it to Baltimore too! But I’m coming from DC and I’m too old for the workshop.
May 6, 2013 @ 5:30 pm
🙁 Sorry about the workshop age limit. We want to target students (since that was the age when WE had the most self-doubts and confusion). But I’m SO GLAD I’ll get to see you in Baltimore (maybe get to see you, rather)–please come!!
May 15, 2013 @ 11:19 pm
haha, I’m not sure the workshop is for me anyway but yes! I’m really hoping to make it.
May 6, 2013 @ 3:55 pm
New York is 4 hours away….. >_> But I don’t think I’d be able to make it. But yay Arc giveaway! 😀 Hope you guys have fun!
May 6, 2013 @ 4:00 pm
🙁 🙁 I’m sorry. BUT, maybe in the future…? And thank you!! <3
May 7, 2013 @ 2:50 pm
Definitely in the future! If there’s no age limit XD I’m old lol
May 6, 2013 @ 3:57 pm
Well, I’m slightly out of the age rang.”e, so I’ll leave it to the “kids. 🙂 But, I think it’s a fabulous idea!!
May 6, 2013 @ 4:03 pm
😀 😀 Thanks!!! Maybe in the future we can do something online that includes the “older kids”. 😉
May 6, 2013 @ 4:13 pm
I WANT TO but I’m in Dallas… The goal is to get to BEA next year! And hopefully y’alls week in Dallas shall inspire another tour down here? HERE’S TO HOPING *cheers* <3
May 6, 2013 @ 4:18 pm
Maybe!! We’ve discussed a southern tour for the future, and we definitely all want to hit up Austin at some point…;)
May 6, 2013 @ 9:42 pm
THAT is a fantastic idea – take it from a 6th St. veteran!
May 6, 2013 @ 4:26 pm
OMG, we have this book in our wishlist for a long time now! It would be an honor to win this giveaway. If we win, we promise to do the best review of it ever!
Thank you so much guys for this opportunity! 😉

we cannot go the tour because we are not from US, but from Spain. But we would love to be there. Everyone who is going to the tour, enjoy for us! ^^
May 6, 2013 @ 5:29 pm
Ha! Too bad Spain is *definitely* not within driving distance. And it’s sad: I’ve been all over Europe, but never to Spain!!! One day, one day…
May 8, 2013 @ 12:37 am
we would be waiting with open arms! haha
we are anxious to go to book tours! We have Comic Cons, why not book tours?
May 8, 2013 @ 12:38 am
sorry, we are the same as TUABFC… too many accounts!
May 6, 2013 @ 4:41 pm
omg I so wish I could go!! I clearly don’t live in the cool places 🙁 But this is going to be fantastic, I hope you guys have a love of fun!! 😀 (And that I get that ARC because reasons ;))
May 6, 2013 @ 5:28 pm
Hey, at least we got to meet. I am SO GLAD. <3 <3 <3 Thanks again to your friend for driving you!!
May 6, 2013 @ 4:46 pm
No because they’re all northern cities =( Us southerners have been forgotten =(
May 6, 2013 @ 4:47 pm
And I also can’t go because I’m 7 years older than the age limit =P
May 6, 2013 @ 5:27 pm
Awww, we didn’t forget southerners (you forget, I’m from Georgia!). But the driving times between cities are double that up north (same for out west). THAT SAID, our next group tour (whenever that is) will probably be a winter extravaganza through the south… 😉
May 7, 2013 @ 1:30 am
AHHH! I do hope this happens! ANd that you make a TN stop! *crosses fingers* <3333
May 7, 2013 @ 1:31 am
AWE. But if you do make a winter tour of the south, I’ll be too old by then. I turn 23 in Sept. BOo. 🙁 Still, it’d be SUPER AWESOME to see the four of you!
May 7, 2013 @ 3:22 pm
Cassie, we can just lie about our age, mwahaha, lol.
May 8, 2013 @ 7:21 pm
Hmm. You have a point there. 😉
May 6, 2013 @ 4:54 pm
I’ve registered for Baltimore!!! That library is in my hometown. I may or may not have eeked when I read that it was in Cockeysville. Exciting stuff!
May 6, 2013 @ 5:27 pm
WOOHOO!! YAY!!
May 8, 2013 @ 9:13 pm
Can’t wait to see you there! I’m also registered for the Baltimore one 🙂
May 6, 2013 @ 6:14 pm
I’m definitely going to catch you guys when you’re in NY! It’s my mission in life to meet all four of you and give you massive hugs <3
May 6, 2013 @ 7:39 pm
WOOHOO! I CANNOT WAIT!!!
May 6, 2013 @ 6:24 pm
Wish I could join you all, but I’m no where near any of those places… Be sure to share about how it all goes! And I would be thrilled to enter this giveaway! *happy dance and thank you’s”
May 6, 2013 @ 7:40 pm
We’re going to update our YAGB Tumblr CONSTANTLY during the tour–with pictures and videos and comments. Be sure to “ride” along with us!!
May 6, 2013 @ 7:10 pm
I so wish I could join, but I live on the wrong continent :/ Also, I just saw that I?m 2 years too old 😛 Anyway, I think it’s so awesome that you are doing this!! I attended a workshop with Lee Weatherly last month and it was so, so helpful and fun! 🙂
May 6, 2013 @ 7:40 pm
🙁 Boo. Wrong continent. We’ll definitely look into some online workshops for future stuff–that’d help all you non-North-Americans. 😉
May 6, 2013 @ 7:17 pm
I wish I could but I live no where near any of those places.
May 6, 2013 @ 7:40 pm
Ah well, too bad! Maybe in the future!
May 6, 2013 @ 7:34 pm
Sadly I am not. 🙁 I live in the middle of nowhere as far as tours are concerned…it makes me really sad!
May 6, 2013 @ 7:41 pm
Awwww, travel times equate so much into touring (at least for us since we’re driving the whole way), so yeah…middle-of-nowhere=boo. 🙁
May 7, 2013 @ 3:58 pm
Well that’s the sad part – it’s not really the middle of nowhere…it’s just not a major US city, so we rarely see any action. We’re 6 hours from Dallas, TX, 2 hours from Memphis, TN, 8 hours from New Orleans, LA, and about 6-7 hours from St. Louis…..but yeah, we get no love, lol.
May 6, 2013 @ 8:19 pm
I wish I could join you guys so badly. If only you were coming to Boston, I’d be there in a heartbeat. Regardless, I hope you have a blast. It seems like you’ll all have an amazing time 🙂
May 6, 2013 @ 8:22 pm
Even if I actually lived close, I turn 23 in 2 days, so I’d be out of the age range. Double whammy on the no for me, but I bet everyone will have an amazing time!
May 6, 2013 @ 9:07 pm
It stinks that I won’t be able to come! More people need to do stuff in North Carolina. We are deprived of book love here!
May 6, 2013 @ 11:08 pm
I hope to join you for the tour! I signed up weeks ago for the Chicago workshop, but don’t know for sure if I’ve made it into the workshop. Fingers crossed! 🙂 Thank you for organizing and being a part of the tour, it’s awesome!
May 7, 2013 @ 1:12 am
Sadly, I won’t be able to make it to any of them. They’re all too far away!
Thanks for the giveaway!
May 7, 2013 @ 1:28 am
I am freaking out here! *makes grabby hands at ARC* <3333
SUPER bummed that you're not coming anywhere south. 🙁 The closest stop is, like, 8 HOURS away. And what makes it more devastating is that I'll be too old for the workshop by next year (if you do this again). *sniff*
Hope you have fun on this tour, though!
May 7, 2013 @ 1:29 am
I wish I could but I’m over in NYC, maybe in the future
May 7, 2013 @ 4:10 am
Okay- I’ve been out of the loop, crazy busy with school and such. But let me say, Sooz– what a great idea! I love it. Young Authors Giving Back– what a cool concept and a wonderful way to share! Very cool. Can’t wait to check out your new book!!!!!
May 7, 2013 @ 5:08 am
Unfortunately no 🙁
May 7, 2013 @ 11:00 pm
Unfortunately none of the tours are near me, otherwise I’d attend in a heartbeat! Best of luck on tour!
May 8, 2013 @ 5:13 pm
I am not going to be able to make it. Now if you came to Seattle I would be there in a heartbeat.
May 8, 2013 @ 7:59 pm
If I wasn’t 4753743 miles away I would attend every single tour stop! It breaks my heart to miss them, but you guys will have so much fun!!
We’ll just have to meet some other way, someday <3
May 9, 2013 @ 4:49 am
I am going to be at the Pittsburgh one! So excited! I live in Kansas City, but my little brother is going to college there so I’ll have a place to stay 🙂 Plus I love the city!
May 9, 2013 @ 6:28 am
No :(, I live in Cali
May 9, 2013 @ 5:40 pm
Noooo. I will not be able to join you on tour. But have fun. This is an awesome thing you guys put together.
Thank you for the giveaway!
May 9, 2013 @ 8:14 pm
I wish I could, but you ladies aren’t coming anywhere near my side of the country. This is such a cool thing you’re doing though! Can’t wait to hear about it. 🙂
May 9, 2013 @ 10:23 pm
I’ll be there for the Grand Rapids one!! So excited!
Thanks for the giveaway!
May 9, 2013 @ 11:37 pm
Oh, I wish! Alas, though, I live in SoCal. Hey Susan, do you think you’ll make it out here this year? Other than if you’re going to Comic-Con (I don’t have badges)? Wouldn’t it be AMAZING if you could sign with Sarah at her release party for Crown of Midnight? 😀
Love,
Ava

May 10, 2013 @ 1:20 am
I highly doubt I’ll be at Sarah’s launch party…but you never know!! I definitely want to get to SoCal sometime this year! 😀
May 9, 2013 @ 11:51 pm
These kind of tours never come to the south! Florida loves you too, you know!
May 10, 2013 @ 1:20 am
One day–I promise. We’re hoping to do a southern tour next (when $$ and time permit). Where in FL are you??
May 10, 2013 @ 12:42 am
Unfortunately, no, you’re not coming to NYC 🙁
May 10, 2013 @ 12:43 am
No where close to me 🙁
May 10, 2013 @ 1:19 am
But we WILL be in NYC! That’s where the tour begins!! 😀
May 10, 2013 @ 2:39 am
If I lived in the US, I definitely would!
May 10, 2013 @ 3:59 am
Unfortunately I don’t live anywhere near any of those stops, but I wish I could go :)!!!
May 10, 2013 @ 11:00 pm
I wish I could but unfortunately no 🙁 I hope everyone who can go has the best time! And I hope to see some pictures on Facebook or Twitter! 😀
May 12, 2013 @ 1:49 am
I don’t think so huhuhu
May 12, 2013 @ 9:33 am
No, but wish I could! Yet another reason living on the West Coast isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Good luck with everything (and thanks for offering this giveaway)!
May 12, 2013 @ 10:10 am
I won’t be able to make it to any of the events because I am over 22! It is such a fantastic idea, though, and I am excited for all of the lucky ducks who gets to join in the fun!
