Sruble: I was listening for a good hour or so waiting for the premiere so I had to listen to all the normal programming and they kept talking Robbie Williams! It was TORTURE! And everyone is welcome to cookies. And aww, I am really really glad you liked the inerview. I hope you like SGA when you read it. :)

Emily: I AM TOO SCARED TO VLOG BUT IF I WASN’T, I WOULD Y/Y/Y!

I can’t comment on the interview, for some weird reason, so I will comment here instead. This is what I was going to say over there:

Excellent interview! Lots to think about with girl bullying and how it has seemed to escalate in intensity and violence over the years, even though it’s been a problem for a very long time.

I hope there are some teachers that will find a way use Courtney’s books in the classroom, even though censorship will be a problem for most.

Can’t wait to read Some Girls Are, and the new, darker WIP, although I don’t think they can knock CUTB off of the favorite spot. I really connected with Parker and her desire to have everyone just leave her alone.

9 video teasers! Cool. Love the visuals they fit perfectly with your opening.

Why were they talking about Robbie Williams and not Lady Gaga? It’s all about the Gaga, right? BTW, can’t see/hear Lady Gaga because YouTube video was removed :(

“Someone recently insinutated–TO MY FACE! AND NOT EVEN ON THE INTERNET!–that I should not have trouble thinking up blog entries to write about because I am a writer.”
How RUDE! And everyone knows that books and blogs are like totally different things. Duh! (rolls eyes) Ooh, cookies! Can I have one?

p.s. I wish I had an unstable Courtney Summers bookcase. LOL!

IT’S OKAY TO BE EXCITED & A DUDE. I’m glad to hear this! And I feel apologetic about the heartburn. ;)

As for Lady Gaga: dude or not she is ALWAYS AWESOME. ALWAYS. FOREVER.

Okay. I know I shouldn’t be excited for the newest CS masterpiece (being a dude and all) but dang it…I AM.

It seems like just yesterday that I was tearing through CUTB and now…there’s more? Oh, hells yes.

Love the trailer so much it gave me heartburn. Can’t wait to see the other ones. Um, hurry?

I dig Lady GaGa too. Some people think she’s really a dude. Where do you stand in all this???

The people need to know.

tye: man, your comment just caused a ~*sparkly explosion of happiness*~. You are too kind & and I can’t thank you and Sonja and Nicole enough for being such awesome advocates! You are totally not minions! Aussie YA Novel Advocates!

sonja: yes! I love the LG love! and omg. a musical based on Lady Gaga’s fame CD would be BRILLIANT! You are so right… there’s so much potential and the COSTUMES! Why hasn’t this happened yet? You need to table it to her.

Korianne: Aw, YOU ARE AWESOME! I am still completely honoured to have a bookshelf named after me. I think about it regularly. I really do too, that’s not sarcasm!!

Sara: Thank you so much!! It’s my fav LG song to date to, I think, or at least right up there with Paparazzi and Just Dance.

Emilia: OMG WELCOME TO THE HAUS OF GAGA!

A: TY, bb! I am seriously thrilled it gets A’s seal of approval. And eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee you are in the Haus now. Just accept it. ;)

LW: Yay!!! Danke!!

Mmmkay, so the use of that particular footage for that particular voiceover = genius.

Also, I’m pretty sure I really like Lady Gaga, but I’ll have to get back to you on that. I am in love with the photo used in the background of that YouTube file, though, for certain.

Ummm. You might have a Lady Gaga convert on your hands.
