February 23, 2010 | Filed in: Brightly Woven

IT IS FINALLY HERE!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for February 23rd??? Do you??? ONE more month until Brightly Woven officially comes out. One!

While I was talking to the publicist assigned to Brightly Woven (who is very nice and lovely, I might add) and again last night when I was talking to one of my roommates, I finally realized just how long I’ve been waiting for this book to come out. I started writing in January 2007, when I was 19 years-old. Finished in October of 2007 when I was 20. Got an agent in February of 2008 on my 21st birthday, revised for almost a full year before going on submissions in October of 2008, and it sold a month later. It might seem like some of you have been waiting for a long time to read it, but, for me, it’s been three years. When the book comes out next month, I’ll be 23! It seems so weird to me that time has gone by that quickly, especially since it felt like 2009 was year that would never end…

~~Anyway, I come to you with another contest–hopefully one you guys will like! I’ll show you the prizes first!~~

First Prize:
- A signed, finished copy of Brightly Woven
- A $50 gift card to the bookstore of your choice (Amazon, B&N, Borders, Chapters, you name it!)
- A signed bookmark

Second Prize:
- A signed, finished copy of Brightly Woven
- The following fantastic books from EgmontUSA:
The Dark Divine, Scones & Sensibility, and Candor,
- A signed bookmark

Third Prize
- A $20 giftcard to the bookstore of your choice
- ARCs of these fantastic Egmont books: Siren, The Boy Who Could Fly, The False Princess, and Frozen in Time
- A signed bookmark

The Prize for Anyone that sends me proof that they pre-ordered a copy of Brightly Woven at acbracken(at)gmail.com:
- A spiffy signed bookmark
- My eternal love and gratitude

The Nitty Gritty:

A long wait? Oh hon, I hear that. I’ve been aspiring to be an author since I was 9, and I’m still working on getting an agent. Hearing a story like yours makes me smile, ’cause it’s the dream, you know? And you made it happen. Congrats!

I just turned 27 (on the 23rd! The day you were waiting for and I was NOT), and I’m agentless and in the major revision stage… imagine the prospect of being 30 before anyone reads my work. yeah. 23 is small potatoes. LOL.

Hi Alex!
I am so excited for Brightly Woven… I’m going to order the book and I’m now an official Facebook fan! I don’t want to win a prize, I just want your book to be successful and of course, I want you to remember the little people back in the hood on your way to stardom! All the best Alex…I’m so proud of you!

Stop by with your pen next time you’re walking by to pick up the mail…

Can’t wait to read the book! Hope I’m not too late =)
