cracked up to be on the new media minute!

I am a big Daisy Whitney fangirl. Her New Media Minute–featured on her site, ABC News, TVWeek–is fun and fab and I love tuning in. So guess how loudly I squealed when I saw this?

Cracked Up to Be–the trailer and the book–is on the New Media Minute!!!

Check it out right here:





!!! Like, I’d record how loudly I squealed when I saw this and upload it so you could all listen, but then you would all go deaf (I may have deafened my family, who witnessed the moment) and then you would probably have a viable lawsuit against me for that. Especially if I didn’t put up a proper disclaimer, which I wouldn’t because I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS.

Thank you, Daisy!

It has been a good week for me, so far! I also discovered Tim Horton’s Smoothies and they are amazing. I mean, they’re not new on the menu or anything, but I had never ordered one before because I am all about Double Doubles and Ice Caps. Anyway, I am happy to report that I have a new Drink. Butter Caramel, oh yeah. And then tonight I am going to try the pumpkin smoothie! And then maybe in two days, I will have the MINT. My life is a thrill-a-minute, I’m telling you.

Thank God for news in the form of the New Media Minute, because I am so hard up for things to write about these days, I honestly could’ve dragged out an entire blog entry about a smoothie.

Maybe I still will, though. They’re pretty damn good.

    I love Ice Caps! You better send me some!

  2. 3 years, 7 months ago

    That’s awesome! However, I am getting pretty annoyed at the number of people who are not me and have already read your book.

  3. 3 years, 7 months ago

    Wow!

    Great stuff!

    eeeeeeeeeeee

  4. 3 years, 7 months ago

    How freakin’ awesome is that??? Wow, you go get yourself a Smoothie, STAT!!

  5. 3 years, 7 months ago

    Daisy: They might not hold in the mail, BUT I’LL TRY!

    Annika: I thank you and also apologize. You can shake your fist at me, if you want. It might help?

    Anthony: ! eeeeee!

    Angela: I am so thrilled! AND IT IS THE PERFECT EXCUSE TO GET A SMOOTHIE! Aaah! You are brill! Thank you!!

    OMG! REALLY?? REALLY, REALLY?

    That was all kinds of cool.

  7. 3 years, 7 months ago

    *** screams ***

    Whoa!
    I think I heard you from here.

  8. 3 years, 7 months ago

    Vero: REALLY!! And she used the part with your pics in it!! How cool is that?!

    Anna: Hee. Apologies for any busted eardrums!!

  9. 3 years, 7 months ago

    Love this media minute. So much helpful information for writers wanting to promote their books – if only I was in that position. Maybe one day . . .

  10. 3 years, 7 months ago

    That is so freakin cool! I was screaming for you also (but in my head because it is very early in the morning and I have neighbours). I CAN’T WAIT TO READ YOUR BOOK!!!!!!

  11. 3 years, 7 months ago

    Thought you preferred Ass Caps..?

    This video is GREAT!! It’s even better when your FLASH player works and you are not a MORON. Good thing that didn’t happen to me…

    I have nevah heard of Tim Horton’s. So now I think I will have to visit you JUST to have a smoothie. But I refuse to go through the drive-thru with you.

  12. 3 years, 7 months ago

    Kim: You will be! No ‘maybes’ about it!

    Starrynite: Eee! THANK YOU FOR YOUR SILENT MENTAL SCREAM ON MY BEHALF! :D !!!!!!!

    Emily: I DID. But then the Ass Cap ~got replaced~. I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU HAVE NEVER HEARD OF TIM HORTON’S THOUGH! Oh my gosh. You MUST visit me. I will buy you ever drink on the menu it was amazing and then you can tell me how I changed your life afterwards. I LOVE Tim Horton’s. Or Timmy Ho’s as we call it down here. But dammit, I think you want to go through the drive-thru with me. And thank you! I’m glad that didn’t happen to your flash player either. ;)

    Holy crap, that’s awesome! Is it too weird to say I’m proud of you? –since we don’t know each other, that is. Maybe I’m just living vicariously through you at the moment, but I just get so Ren-and-Stimpy-ish when a “new” author gets out there like this. Congratulations!

    I think Janet Reid said it best, “Courtney Summers is going to be a big star– huge.”
    Good for you kiddo!

  15. 3 years, 7 months ago

    That is SO COOL! And Daisy totally rocks!! :) I love her NMM and her blogs on TVWeek.

  16. 3 years, 7 months ago

    ~*SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE*~

    OMG! OMG! OMG!

    ;)

    That’s so cool Courtney! I’m screeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaming over here for you too! Yay You! :)

  17. 3 years, 7 months ago

    Wow. That’s so COOL. You’re definitely going to have to drink more smoothies to celebrate.

    And this is just the beginning…

  18. 3 years, 7 months ago

    That had to be a cool thing for you :)

  19. 3 years, 7 months ago

    Bobbie: Not weird at all! Is it weird to say that means a lot? Thank you so much!

    Sue: Thank you! We’ll see. ;)

    Mandy: Daisy Whitney fanclub represent! She is awesome!

    Sruble: !!!!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!!

    C.K.: I had a mint smoothie to celebrate and it was TOTALLY DISAPPOINTING. Boo!!! But I’m still chuffed. :)

    Brian: It definitely was! :)

  20. 3 years, 6 months ago

    I pay Mandy and Courtney to say nice things

  21. 3 years, 6 months ago

    ;)

  22. 3 years, 6 months ago

    That is awesome. Three cheers for Daisy (and for you), with bonus points for penguin.

  23. 3 years, 6 months ago

    Thank you! Isn’t her shirt great? My sister noticed it too! Yay penguins!

  24. 3 years, 6 months ago

    yay for you! and yay for Daisy Whitney! yay Whitneys of the World!

    my mother loves the butter caramel too. I also love double doubles but prefer one of the following two options: 1) cafe mocha or 2) half coffee, half hot chocolate.

  25. 3 years, 6 months ago

    the people that have whitney as their names or IN their names have historically, made my life even more awesome. TRUEFAX!

    oohhh cafe mocha. mmm. THOSE ARE GREAT. now i must get one, dammit.
