Thanks to all the party goers large and small for making this such a special launch. A tree hug to the revelers who helped us raise money for Nature Conservancy's Plant a Billion Trees Together we planted 50 new trees in the endangered Brazilian Rain forest. Bravo!

THE DRAGONS ARE GETTING READY TO FLY!
Friend, fellow YA author and visual artist, Holly Cupala, designed the beautiful new banner above as one part of THE DRAGONS OF NOOR launch celebration!

Thanks so much Holly. The banner is scrumptious!

Here's a shot from Heidi Pettit's LitArtPhotography gallery of THE BEAST OF NOOR book party. Do you see Holly in the shot?



This week the Carey house is getting ready for the launch party. Time to haul the huge dragon from his guardian place over my writing desk and get him ready to dance. This year we're enjoying making tons of masks for the revelers to wear at the celebration.

Lots of people enjoy coming to my book parties in costume.


Heidi Pettit
