First of all, congrats to my personal hero, John Green, on his fireside chat with the President AND his forthcoming baby girl. It was a big week in Nerdfighteria. If you missed the fireside chat/Google hangout, you can find it on Youtube. It’s not available on the Vlogbrothers channel in full and, if you search through the news sites, they generally only had the live feed, so you can’t view it there.

My husband, not knowing any of this, still managed to get me a very a propos Valentine’s Day gift, a box set of all John Green’s books and a signed copy of The Fault in Our Stars. Love it (and him)!!

Then on Saturday, Rob told me we’d be going to an early birthday brunch (My bday is this Sunday) with his parents, so we got ready, but to my surprise, there was a party bus waiting outside our house! Even better, these girls were in it!

And off we went on a wine tour to Fredricksburg.

Later, my girlfriends and longtime Fumbling with Fiction supporters, Emily and Kelley, surprised me with framed copies of two of my covers. How cute did these turn out?

…Which my husband thought was very interesting, since apparently great minds think alike!

So that was my both bookish and fun weekend. It was wonderful seeing my friends and family, who obviously know me oh-so-well.

Today, I’m anxiously awaiting agent notes on my latest revisions. I’m inserting a little mini-scene on my own, too. Happy Monday, everyone.
